Synthesis and X-ray crystallographic characterisation of the diphosphane bridged cluster [Ir4(CO)11PhPPPhlr4(CO)9(AuPEt3)2]
Abstract
Deprotonation of [Ir4(CO)11PPhH2] followed by oxidation with Ag[ClO4] in the presence of [AuPEt3]+ affords the cluster [Ir4(CO)11PhPPPhIr4(CO)9(AuPEt3)2], which has been shown by an X-ray analysis to contain an Ir4 and an Ir4Au2 unit linked by adiphosphane (PhPPPh) ligand.
