Abstract

A remarkable cluster–cluster interaction is operative in dimers of delocalized Ru₃O(OAc)₅(py)₂ clusters with ortho-metallated 2,2′-bipyrimidine (bpym) in an unprecedented μ₄-η¹(C),η¹(C),η²(N,N),η²(N,N) bonding mode; interconversion of the dimeric species [{Ru₃O(OAc)₅(py)₂}₂(μ₄-bpym)]ⁿ⁺ (n = 0, 1 or 2) with different charges is attainable by chemical oxidation or reduction.
