nido-[{(C5Me5)Ir}B3H7{(PPh3)2(CO)Os}], closo-[{(C5Me5)Ir}B4H6{(PPh3)2(CO)Os}] and pileo-[{(PPh3)COHIr}B5H5{(PPh3)2(CO)Os}]: a unique homologous series of iridaosmaborane cluster types
Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of nido-[{(C5Me5)Ir}B3H7{(PPh3)2(CO)Os}], and pileo[{(C5Me5) Ir}B4H6{(PPh3)2(CO)Os}] and pileo-[{(PPh3)COHIr}B5H5{(PPh3)2(CO)Os}]: a unique series of iridaosmaborane clusters containing three, four and five boron atoms, respectively, are reported.
