Nickel(II) in an almost regular tetrahedral thiolate environment: a first generation synthetic analogue of the active site of nickel CO-dehydrogenase

Abstract

Reaction of the iron(II)–carbonyl chelate ligand [Fe(NS3)(CO)] [NS3 = N(CH2CH2S)33−] with the dmso solvate of nickel(II) chloride gives the structurally characterised trinuclear linear complex [Ni{Fe(NS3)(CO)-S,S ′}2], which has an almost regular tetrahedral arrangement of sulfur about nickel and structural features similar to those proposed for the active site of nickel CO-dehydrogenase.
