Abstract

Reaction of K3P7, FeCl2, [NH4][B(C6H5)4] and 2,2,2-crypt yielded the unprecedented cluster dianion [Fe(HP7)2]2−. This species was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, multielement NMR spectroscopy and electrospray mass-spectrometry. DFT calculations on the dianion were also conducted.
