Abstract

The prototype hetero-binuclear complexes containing metal–metal bonds, {Cp′Rh[E2C2(B10H10)]}[Fe(CO)3] (Cp′ = Cp* = η5-Me5C5, E = S(5a), Se(5b); Cp′ = Cp″ = η5-1,3-tBu2C5H3, E = S(6a), Se(6b)) and {Cp′Co[E2C2(B10H10)]}[Fe(CO)3] (Cp′ = Cp* = η5-Me5C5, E = S(7a), Se(7b); Cp′ = Cp = η5-C5H5, E = S(8a), Se(8b)) were obtained from the reactions of 16-electron complexes Cp′Rh[E2C2(B10H10)] (Cp′ = Cp*, E = S(1a), Se(1b); Cp′ = Cp″, E = S(2a), Se(2b)), Cp′Co[E2C2(B10H10)] (Cp′ = Cp*, E = S(3a), Se(3b); Cp′ = Cp, E = S(4a), Se(4b)) with Fe(CO)5 in the presence of Me3NO. The molecular structures of {Cp*Rh[E2C2(B10H10)]}[Fe(CO)3] (E = S(5a), Se(5b)), {Cp″Rh[S2C2(B10H10)]}[Fe(CO)3] (6a) {Cp*Co[S2C2(B10H10)]}[Fe(CO)3] (7a) and {CpCo[S2C2(B10H10)]}[Fe(CO)3] (8a) have been determined by X-ray crystallography. All these complexes were characterized by elemental analysis and IR and NMR spectra.
