W. Plass et al., SYNTHESIS AND ELECTRONIC-STRUCTURE OF A HOMOLEPTIC TRITHIOCARBONATO IRON COMPLEX - [PPH(4)](3)[FE(CS3)(3)]CENTER-DOT-H2O, Bulletin de la Societe chimique de France, 133(3), 1996, pp. 225-227
Reaction of iron(III) acetylacetonate with K2CS3 in DMF and precipitat
ion with [PPh(4)]Cl gives [PPh(4)](3)[Fe(CS3)(3)]. H2O, the crystal st
ructure of which shows octahedrally-coordinated iron centers within th
e discrete [Fe(CS3)(3)](3-) anions with interesting electronic structu
re. The CS32- group acts as a bidentate ligand with resulting FeS dist
ances ranging from 2.286 to 2.323 Angstrom.
