Abstract: Solvothermal reactions of 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)propane (H3tmp) and FeCl3 by using different counter ions resulted in three hexanuclear iron(Ⅲ)clusters (C5N2H14)[Fe6(μ6-O)Cl6(tmp)4]·2H2O·CH3OH (1), (C3N2H5)2[Fe6(μ6- O)Cl6(tmp)4] (2), and (C4N3H8)3(C2N3H4)[Fe12(μ6-O)2Cl12(tmp)8]·3CH3OH (3), whose structures were characterized. The tripodal alcohols ligands are very useful in constructing high-nuclearity metal clusters. In all cases, similar anionic cluster[Fe6(μ6-O)Cl6(tmp)4]2- is formed by six Fe(Ⅲ)ions, four tmp3- ligands, one center O2- ion, and six Cl- ions. Within the system of compounds 1 and 3, the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ligands experience N- and C-alkylation reactions, which is validated by the crystallographic parameters, elemental analyses, and IR.
