Abstract
The anionic hydrido cluster [HRu4C(CO)12]- and the neutral dihydride H2Ru4C(CO)12 have been prepared in good yield. Spectroscopic studies of H2Ru4C(CO)12 indicate that two isomers are formed, one with a structure similar to that of H2Fe4C(CO)12 the other with metal-bonded hydrido ligands. The parent carbido cluster Ru4C(CO)13 has been synthesised from the hydrido anion, and has a structure similar to that of the analogous iron cluster Fe4C(CO)13.
