Heteronuclear metal complexes with bridging methoxymetylidyne ligands: X-ray crystal structures of [AuRu3(µ2-COMe)(CO)10(PPh3)] and [Fe3Pt(µ3-H)(µ3-COMe)(CO)10(PPh3)]
Abstract
Heteronuclear cluster compounds can be prepared from reactions between [M3(µ-H)(µ-COMe)(CO)10](M = Fe or Ru) and [ AuMePPh3], or between the tri-iron compound and [Pt(C2H4)2(PPh3)]; the structures of [AuRu3(µ2-COMe)(CO)10(PPh3)] and [Fe3Pt(µ3-H)(µ3-COMe)(CO)10(PPh3)] have been established by X-ray diffraction.
