Dppm-substituted ruthenium clusters with capping sulfido and selenido ligands derived from thiourea, tetramethylthiourea and elemental selenium
Treatment of [Ru-3(CO)(10)(mu-dppm)] (4) [dppm = bis(diphenylphosphido)methane] with tetramethylthiourea at 66 degrees C gave the previously reported dihydrido triruthenium cluster [Ru-3(mu-H)(2)(mu(3)-S)(CO)(7)(mu-dppm)] (5) and the new compounds [Ru-3(mu(3)-S)(2)(CO)(7)(mu-dppm)] (6), [Ru-3(mu(3)-S)(CO)(7)(mu(3)-CO)(mu-dppm)] (7) and [Ru-3(mu 3-S)eta(I)-C(NMe2)(2)}(CO)(6)(mu(3)-CO)(mu-dppm)] (8)
