title: A cyclic tetra-nuclear dinitrosyl iron complex [Fe(NO)2(imidazolate)]4: synthesis, structure and stability.
abstract: A novel cyclic tetra-nuclear dinitrosyl iron complex [Fe(NO)2(Im-H)]4 was isolated and characterized by X-ray crystallography, and in donor solvents this fragments into 17 e- monomeric units that give EPR spectra analogous to the g= 2.03 species seen in mammalian biology.
