Synthesis and crystal molecular structure of ferracarborane commo-(3-Fe-{1,2-C 2B 9H 9-4-SMe 2-12-HgCl} 2)

Symmetrically substituted dimercuro-ferracarborane commo-(3-Fe-{1,2-C 2B 9H 9-4-SMe 2-12-HgCl} 2) ( 1) was synthesized and its structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecule adopts a staggered sandwich structure with the dicarbollide ligands forming cisoid conformation. S...

Description
Summary:Symmetrically substituted dimercuro-ferracarborane commo-(3-Fe-{1,2-C 2B 9H 9-4-SMe 2-12-HgCl} 2) ( 1) was synthesized and its structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecule adopts a staggered sandwich structure with the dicarbollide ligands forming cisoid conformation. Strong intermolecular interactions Hg…C1 and S…Cl lead to formation of 1D chains { commo-(3-Fe-{1,2-C 2B 9H 9-4-SMe 2-12-HgCl} 2)} ∞.
