Abstract: The half sandwich methylcyclopentadienyl iron carbonyl complex reacted with 1,2-dilithium diselenolate carborane Li 2Se2C2B10H10 (1) which was produced by the insertion of element Se into 1,2-dilithium carborane to give a half sandwich binuclear iron carborane complex Cp′ 2Fe2(CO)3Se2C2B10H10 (3). X-ray structural analysis of complex 3 reveals that one of the iron atoms is chiral.

Key words: Carborane, Half-sandwich methylcyclopentadienyl iron carbonyl complex, Asymmetrical structrure, X-ray molecular structure anylysis
