The reactivity of the (PPN)(2)[Fe8S6(NO)(8)] and (PPN)(2)[Fe6S6(NO)(6)] clusters is explored and new derivative clusters have been synthesized and structurally characterized. The unique (PPN)(2)Fe4S4(NO)(6) "open-cubane" cluster with a chair like Fe4S4 core is obtained along with the mixed metal pentandite-like clusters (PPN)(2)[Mo2Fe6S6(NO)(6)(CO)6](,) (PPr3)(2)Cu2Fe6S6(NO)(6), (PPr3)(4)Cu4Fe4S6(NO)(4), (PPr3)(2)Ni2Fe6S6(NO)(6), (PPr3)(3)Ni3Fe4S6(NO)(4). The rich electrochemistry of the mixed metal clusters is presented as well. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
