title: Stereochemistry of electrophilic attack at 34e⁻ dimetallic complexes: the case of diiron dithiolato carbonyls + MeS⁺.
abstract: Experimental and computational experiments show that the electrophile MeS(+) attacks a single Fe center in Fe(2)(propanedithiolate)(CO)(4)(PMe(3))(2) followed by isomerization of this terminal thiolato complex to the corresponding μ-SMe derivative.
