A double cluster of ruthenium and boron; [1-η2-{(η6-C6Me6)2Ru2H4}-isocloso-1-RuB10H8-2,3-(OEt)2]

Abstract

The novel double cluster compound [{(η6-C6Me6)2Ru2H4}RuB10H8(OEt)2], obtained in 31% yield as an unexpected product from the reaction between the mononuclear ruthenium complex arachno-[(η6-C6Me6)ClRuB3H8] and closo-[B10H10]2– in ethanol, exhibits a unique (non-carbonyl containing) triangular {Ru3} cluster and a closo-type eleven-vertex {RuB10} cluster conjoined at a common Ru atom.
