Abstract: The photochemical reaction of Fe <subscript>2</subscript> (S <subscript>2</subscript> )(CO) <subscript>6</subscript> and Ph <subscript>2</subscript> CS affords the perthiolate Fe <subscript>2</subscript> (S <subscript>3</subscript> CPh <subscript>2</subscript> )(CO) <subscript>6</subscript> ( 1 ) in good yield. As confirmed crystallographically, 1 contains a previously elusive perthiolate ligand. The related reaction of Fe <subscript>2</subscript> (S <subscript>2</subscript> )(CO) <subscript>5</subscript> -(PPh <subscript>3</subscript> ) and Ph <subscript>2</subscript> CS gave Fe <subscript>2</subscript> (S <subscript>3</subscript> CPh <subscript>2</subscript> )(CO) <subscript>5</subscript> (PPh <subscript>3</subscript> ). Although Fe <subscript>3</subscript> S <subscript>2</subscript> (CO) <subscript>9</subscript> and Ph <subscript>2</subscript> CS failed to efficiently give Fe <subscript>2</subscript> (S <subscript>2</subscript> CPh <subscript>2</subscript> )(CO) <subscript>6</subscript> , this compound could be prepared by desulfurization of 1 using PPh <subscript>3</subscript> .
