Synthesis of Cluster Derivatives Containing the MRuCoSe (M=Mo or W) Core
Abstract
The new clusters [MRuCo(CO)8(µ3-Se){η5-C5H4C(O)OEt}](M=Mo 2 or W 3) are isolated from the reaction of [RuCo2(CO)9(µ3-Se)] 1 and [M(CO)3{η5-C5H4C(O)OEt]–(M=Mo or W), and the structure of cluster 2 has been established by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods.
