Abstract

The trimetallic tetrahedrane complexes [MonW3–n5-C5H5)3(CO)63-P)] (n = 0–3) are oxidised in carbon disulfide solution by elemental sulfur to the corresponding µ3-PS complexes [MonW3–n5-C5H5)3(CO)63-PS)]; the new complexes lose the sulfur atom upon standing in solution at room temp. to regenerate [MonW3–n5-C5H5)(CO)63-P)]; the X-ray crystal structure of [W35-C5H5)3(CO)63-PS)] is determined.
