Abstract

The high reactivity of [Os3(CO)9H(SR)] (R = Me or Et), associated with a variable co-ordination of the sulphur ligand, has enabled a range of adducts to be prepared; in particular the first X-ray diffraction study of a cluster containing ethylene π-bound to a single metal centre is reported.
