✦ Synopsis

shortest edge is bridged by the phosphido group -CH2(iPr)P. The H-bridge between the iron atoms 2 and 3 lengthens the Fe2-Fe3 bond (Fig. 1). As a two-electron, ' I ? . C16 Fig. 1. Structure of 3b in the crystal. Selected bond lengths [A]: Fel-Fe2 2.6994(7), Fel-Fe3 2.7300(7), Fe2-Fe3 2.7993(7), PI-Fel 2.1779(8), PI-Fe2 2.194(1), P2-Fe3 2.293(1), HI-Fe2 1.70(5), HI-Fe3 1.59(5); selected bond angles ["I: PI-CIO-P2 107.0(2), Fel-P1-Fe2 76.26(3), Fe2-HI -Fe3 11 7(3). three-center bond, the Fe-(H)-Fe system is similar to that in the isoelectronic Os3(COfl IH2[81. Reaction of the intermediate 2 with other carbonylmetal compounds should also facilitate the synthesis of heterometal clusters with the RR'P-CH2-PR bridge, which functions as a [2 + 31-electron donor.
