The reactions of the (Et(4)N)(2)[(Cl(4)-cat)(MeCN)MoFe(3)S(4)Cl(3)] (I) cluster with Fe(pp)(2)Cl(2) (pp = depe (bis(1,2-diethylphosphino)ethane) or dmpe (bis(1,2-dimethylphosphino)ethane)) produced the [(Cl(4)-cat)MoFe(3)S(4)(pp)(2)Cl](2)(mu-pp) (pp = depe (III) or dmpe (V)) singly bridged double cubanes. The reactions of I with the same bidentate phosphine ligands in the presence of NaBPh(4) also produced III and the [(Cl(4)-cat)MoFe(3)S(4)(dmpe)(2)](2)(mu-S)(mu-dmpe) (VI) doubly bridged double cubane, respectively. The byproduct (BPh(4))[Fe(dmpe)(2)(MeCN)Cl] (VII) has been isolated from the reaction mixture and crystallographically characterized. The depe analogue of VI, [(Cl(4)-cat)MoFe(3)S(4)(depe)(2)](2)(mu-S)(mu-depe) (IV), has been successfully prepared from III in the presence of excess Li(2)S. Similar reactions with (Et(4)N)(2)[Fe(4)S(4)(SPh)(4)] (VIII) have resulted in the formation of the neutral Fe(4)S(4)(depe)(2)(SPh)(2) (IX) cluster. The chloride analogue of IX, Fe(4)S(4)(depe)(2)Cl(2) (XI), has been obtained by a reaction of IX with benzoyl chloride. The crystal and molecular structures of III, VI, VII, and XI have been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The electrochemical and spectroscopic properties, including the Mossbauer spectra of the new clusters, have been determined and analyzed.

The treatment of with sodium borohydride in ethanol produces the hydrides + in high yield.These complexes react with a variety of small molecules including N2 to give further complexes.CO2 and CS2 insert into the iron hydride bond to yield formato- and dithioformato-complexes, respectively, and carboxymethyl acetylene and phenyl acetylene yield a cyclic alkenyl complex and an acetylide, respectively.
