Abstract

In this contribution, we report the preparation of iron thiosulfonato complex CpFe(CO)2SSO2CH=CHPh (1) and its selenosulfonato analogue CpFe(CO)2SeSO2CH=CHPh (2) featuring styrene moiety. 1 and 2 are obtained by electrophilic attack of (μ-Ex)[CpFe(CO)2]2 (E = S; x = 2–4, E = Se; x = 1) on the sulfur atom of styrene sulfonyl chloride ClSO2CH=CHPh. The new compounds, 1 and 2 have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H-, 13C{1H}-NMR, UV–Vis spectroscopy and the structure of 2 is determined by X-ray crystallography.
