Abstract

Treatment of a solution of [Os₃(CO)₁₀(R₂C₂)] (R = Me (1, R = Ph (2)) in CH₂Cl₂ with Me₃No/MeCN in the presence of R′₂C₂ affords the new organometallic cluster [Os₃(CO)₈(R₂C₂)(R′₂C₂)] (R = R′ = Me (3), R = R′ = Ph (4) and R = Ph, R′ = Me (5)). A single crystal X-ray analysis of compound 4 has established a triangular metal framework with both the alkyne units coordinated in a μ₃-η²-{norm of matrix}-mode. In toluene, at 80°C, compound 4 undergoes rearrangement to the known compound, [Os₃H(CO)₈(Ph)C₂(C₆H₄))] (6) in which CC bond formation has occurred to produce an osmacyclopentadiene ring.
