Synthesis and characterization of the bis-arene sandwich cluster [Ru6C(CO)11(η6-C6H3Me3-1,3,5)2]
Abstract
The bis-arene cluster complex [Ru6C(CO)11(η6-C6H3Me3-1,3,5)2]1 has been synthesised and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction; it possesses a unique structure in which the octahedral cluster core is sandwiched between the two arenes.
