Reaction of the unsaturated triosmium cluster [Os3H(CO)8{Ph2PCH2P(Ph)C6H4}] with HBF4 and [Au(PPh3)]PF6; crystal structure of [Os3AuH(CO)8{Ph2PCH2P(Ph)C6H4}(PPh3)]PF6

Abstract

Treatment of the unsaturated cluster [Os3H(CO)8{Ph2PCH2P(Ph)C6H4}]1 with [Au(PPh3)]PF6 gives the cationic cluster [Os3AuH(CO)8{Ph2PCH2P(Ph)C6H4}(PPh3)]PF62, while with HBF4 it gives [Os3H2(CO)8{Ph2PCH2P(Ph)C6H4}]BF43. The crystal structure of 2, obtained using synchrotron radiation, reveals that the AuPPh3 moiety bridges the formally unsaturated Os–Os edge, while the hydride bridges the Os–Os edge which is also bridged by the P atoms of the metallated diphosphine ligand.
