The iron half-sandwich [Cp'Fe(μ-I)]2 (Cp' = 1,2,4-(Me3C)3C5H2, 1) reacts with the pseudohalides NCO-, SCN-, SeCN- and N3- to give [Cp'Fe(μ-NCO)]2 (2), [Cp'Fe(μ-S)]2 (3), [Cp'Fe(μ-Se2)]2 (4) and [Cp'Fe(μ-N)]2 (5), respectively. Various spectroscopic techniques including X-ray diffraction, solid-state magnetic susceptibility studies and 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy were employed in the characterization of these species. Mössbauer spectroscopy shows a decreasing isomer shift with increasing formal oxidation state, ranging from Fe(ii) to Fe(iv), in complexes 1 to 5. The sulfido-bridged dimer 3 exhibits strong antiferromagnetic coupling between the Fe(iii) centers. This leads to temperature-independent paramagnetism (TIP) at low temperature, from which the energy gap between the ground and the excited state can be estimated to be 2J = ca. 700 cm-1. The iron(iv) nitrido complex [Cp'Fe(μ-N)]2 (5) shows no reactivity towards H2 (10 atm), but undergoes clean reactions with CO (5 bar) and XylNC (Xyl = 2,6-Me2C6H3) to form the diamagnetic isocyanate and carbodiimide complexes [Cp'Fe(CO)2(NCO)] (7) and [Cp'Fe(CNXyl)2(NCNXyl)] (8), respectively. All compounds were fully characterized, and density functional theory (DFT) computations provide useful insights into their formation and the electronic structures of complexes 3 and 5.
