Diiron propanedithiolate hexacarbonyl is the organoiron complex with the formula Fe₂(S₂C₃H₆)(CO)₆. It is a red diamagnetic solid.[1] It adopts a symmetrical structure with six terminal CO ligands.[2] The complex is a precursor to hydrogenase mimics.

It is prepared by the reaction of 1,3-propanedithiol with triiron dodecarbonyl:

2 Fe₃(CO)₁₂ + 3 C₃H₆(SH)₂ → 3 Fe₂(S₂C₃H₆)(CO)₆ + 3 H₂ + 6 CO

In general, the CO ligands can be substituted by cyanide, phosphines, isocyanides, N-heterocyclic carbenes, and other donor ligands. Monosubstitution can be achieved through an in situ generation of the acetonitrile complex.[3][4]

Upon irradiation of Fe₂(S₂C₃H₆)(CO)₆ with ultraviolet (UV) light, CO-photolysis occurs with the transient formation of the unsaturated species followed by the formation of the solvent adduct.[5]
