A cyclic tetra-nuclear dinitrosyl iron complex [Fe(NO)2(imidazolate)]4: synthesis, structure and stability

Chem Commun (Camb). 2005 Jan 28:(4):477-9. doi: 10.1039/b412086h. Epub 2004 Dec 14.

Abstract

A novel cyclic tetra-nuclear dinitrosyl iron complex [Fe(NO)2(Im-H)]4 was isolated and characterized by X-ray crystallography, and in donor solvents this fragments into 17 e- monomeric units that give EPR spectra analogous to the g= 2.03 species seen in mammalian biology.
