Abstract

Thecloso octahedral cluster Ru4(CO)11(μ4-PPh)(μ4-S)1 and selenium and tellurium analogues, the first examples of unsaturated ruthenium clusters with a planar metal core and different main group 15 and 16 atoms have been synthesized fromnido Ru4(CO)13(μ3-PPh). An X-ray analysis of1 and Ru4(CO)10(μ4-PPh)(μ4-Se)(PEt3)2a has confirmed thetrans disposition of phosphorus and group 16 main group fragments.
