Abstract

The bicapped octahedral dianion [Os₈(CO)₂₂] ^2- reacts with AuPPh₃Cl to give [Os₈(CO) ₂₂(AuPPh₃)₂], the structure of which has been established by a single crystal X-ray analysis; for the first time in such reactions the anionic metal geometry has changed and the resulting Os ₈Au₂ framework may be described as two octahedra sharing an edge but with one equatorial metal-metal bond missing.
