[Re6Te8(CN)6][{Ir(CO)(PPh3)2}6](OTf)2 : a new Re6 cluster-supported iridium(i) compound
Abstract
A new hexanuclear rhenium cluster encapsulated by six iridium complexes, [Re6Te8(CN)6][{Ir(CO)(PPh3)2}6](OTf)2
(3), which is effective in catalyzing the hydrogenation of p-CH3C6H4CCH to p-CH3C6H4CH
CH2 has been prepared.
