From the room-temperature reaction of the mixed-chalcogenide compound
Fe-2(CO)(6)(mu-SeTe) with phenylacetylene two isomeric products were i
solated, Fe-2(CO)(6){mu SeC(H)=C-(Ph)Te} (1) and Fe-2(CO)6{mu-SeC(Ph)=
C(H)Te} (2). Fe-2(CO)(6)(mu-SSe) reacted with phenylacetylene to form
Fe-2(CO)(6){mu-SC(Ph)=C(H)Se} (3). The room-temperature reaction of Fe
-2(CO)(6)(mu-STe) with phenylacetylene also yielded two isomeric produ
cts, Fe-2(CO)(6)(mu-SC-(H)=C(Ph)Te) (4) and Fe-2(CO)(6)(mu-SC(Ph)=C(H)
Te) (5). In ah of these reactions, the homochalcogenide compounds Fe-2
(CO)(6)(mu-EC(H)=C(Ph)E) (E = Se, Te, E = S, Se, and E = S, Te, respec
tively) were also formed in trace amounts. The new compounds 1-5 were
characterized by IR and H-1, C-13, Se-77, and Te-125 NMR spectroscopy.
Compound 1 was structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray dif
fraction methods. It crystallized in the triclinic space group P $($)
