X-Ray crystallographic determination of molecular geometry for bis(imidotetramethyldithiodiphosphino-SS)-iron(II), a structural model for the iron–sulphur core of rubredoxin
Abstract
A single-crystal X-ray study of [SPMe2NPMe2S]2Fe shows its FeII centre to be tetrahedrally co-ordinated by four sulphur atoms: the molecule is suggested as a structural model for the iron–sulphur core of rubredoxin.
