The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

The X-ray crystal structures of [NHR3](2)[Fe4S4X4] (X = PhS, R = Et or (n) Bu; X = Cl, R = (n) Bu), reported in this paper, show NHaEuro broken vertical bar X interactions between the cation and the cubanoid cluster. Comparison of the cluster dimensions in [NHR3](2)[Fe4S4X4] with those reported earlier for [NR'(4)](2)[Fe4S4X4] (R' = Me, X = PhS; R' = Et, X = Cl) indicates that N-HaEuro broken vertical bar X interactions have a negligible effect on the dimensions of the cluster. The relevance of these structures to understanding where on [Fe4S4X4](2-) protonation labilises the cluster to substitution is discussed.
