Abstract

Abstract The crystal structure of [Et4N]2[Fe4S4(2,4,6-trimethylbenzenethiolato)4] was determined by X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in orthorhombic space group (Pcnb). The Fe4S42+ core of the anion approaches C2 symmetry. The complex has relatively long Fe–S(Ph) bond lengths and small Fe–S–C angles. The results suggest the prevention of π-overlap between Fe(d)-SPh(p) orbitals by the steric hindrance of two methyl groups at o-positions of phenyl group.
