By reacting (NH 4 ) 2 MoS 4 , FeCl 2 and Me 2 dtcNa at room temperature, we have synthesized in one pot two single cubane‐like cluster compounds, MoFe 3 S 4 (Me 2 dtc) 5 ·CH 2 Cl 2 (1) and MoFe 3 S 4 ‐(Me 2 dtc) 6 ·2CH 3 CN (3), which were separated by stepwise crystallization. The structure of 3 was solved and refined for 5183 reflections to final R value of 0.069. Compound 3 is a novel cluster possessing the highest core oxidation state [MoFe 3 S 4 ] 6+ and contains two Me 2 dtc bridges. The structural feature of 3 is reported and the observation that several single cubane‐like clusters containing various oxidation states can coexist in an assembly system is discussed.
