In this contribution, we report the preparation of iron thiosulfonato complex CpFe(CO)₂SeSO₂CH=CHPh (1) and its selenosulfonato analogue CpFe(CO)₂SeSO₂CH=CHPh (2) featuring styrene moiety. 1and 2 are obtained by electrophilic attack of (μ-E_x)[CpFe(CO)₂]₂ (E = S; x = 2–4, E = Se; x = 1) on the sulfuratom of styrene sulfonyl chloride ClSO₂CH=CHPh. The new compounds, 1 and 2 have been characterized byelemental analyses, IR, 1H-, 13C{1H}-NMR, UV–Vis spectroscopy and the structure of 2 is determined byX-ray crystallography.
