摘要：

The synthesis and structure of the first Mo/Fe/S/BH4 cluster is reported. Reaction of (Cl-4-cat)(2)Mo2Fe6S8(PPr3)(6) with 4 equiv of Bu4NBH4 results in the formation of [(Cl-4-cat)(PPr3)MoFe3S4(BH4)(2)](2-)(Bu4N)(4) (Cl-4-cat = tetrachloro-catecholate) which has been fully characterized. X-ray structural determination of this double-fused cubane reveals four BH4- ligands bound to four Fe atoms in a bidentate fashion. A synopsis of the solution characterization as well as the reactivity of this cluster is also presented.
