Treatment of the parent complex [Fe₂(CO)₆(μ-SCH₂CH(CH₂CH₃)S)] (1) with tri(2-furyl)phosphine, n-propyldiphenylphosphine, bis(diphenylphosphino)acetylene, or 1, 2-bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene and Me₃NO ∙ 2H₂O as the decarbonylating agent yielded the monosubstituted complexes [Fe₂(CO)₅(L)(μ-SCH₂CH(CH₂CH₃)S)] (L=P(2-C₄H₃O)₃, 2; Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₃, 3), bridging complex {[Fe₂(CO)₅(μ-SCH₂CH(CH₂CH₃)S)]₂(Ph₂PC≡CPPh₂)} (4), and chelating complex [Fe₂(CO)₄(κ²-(Ph₂P)₂(1, 2-C₆H₄))(μ-SCH₂CH(CH₂CH₃)S)] (5), respectively. Complexes 2-5 have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and ¹H (³¹P{¹H}) NMR spectroscopy, as well as confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Moreover, the electrochemistry of complexes 2-5 has been studied, showing that these complexes can catalyze the reduction of proton to H₂ in the presence of a weak acid HOAc as a proton source.
