[μ-Bis(diphenyl­phosphan­yl)methane]­tricarbon­yl(μ-p-toluene­sulfonyl­meth­yl isocyanato)(triphenyl­phosphane)ironplatinum(Fe—Pt)

The title compound, [FePt(C₉H₉NO₂S)(C₁₈H₁₅P)(C₂₅H₂₂P₂)(CO)₃], represents a rare example of an isonitrile-bridged heterobimetallic complex (here Pt and Fe) and is an inter­esting precursor for the preparation of heterodinuclear μ-amino­carbyne complexes, since the basic imine-type N atom of the μ₂-C=N–R ligand readily undergoes addition with various electrophiles to afford iminium-like salts. In the crystal, the almost symmetrically bridging μ₂-C=N-R ligand (neglecting the different atomic radii of Fe and Pt) is strongly bent towards the Fe(CO)₃ fragment, with a C=N-R angle of only 121.1 (4)°.
