Abstract

Abstract: The electronic spectra (250-700 nm) and redox properties of a series of tetrameric complexes [Fe4S4-(SR), 12-(R= alkyl, aryl, Ac-Cys-NHMe) have been examined in nonaqueous and aqueous DMSO solutions.[Fe4S4 (S-Cys (Ac) NHMe) 4] 2-and [Fe4Sq (SC6H4NMe3) 4] 2+ were generated in solution by ligand substitution reactions of the free thiols and [FeaS@-t-Bu) 4] 2-. Alkyl-substituted tetramers possess two principal absorption ...
