Abstract

The first [Re₆(μ₃-Se)₈]²⁺ core-containing cluster carbonyls, [Re₆-(μ₃-Se) ₈(PEt₃)₅(CO)][SbF₆]₂ and trans-[Re₆(μ₃-Se)₈(PEt₃) ₄(CO)₂]-[SbF₆]₂, were produced by reacting [Re₆(μ₃-Se)₈(PEt₃) ₅l]I and trans-[Re₆(μ₃-Se) ₈(PEt₃)₄I₂], respectively, with AgSbF₆ in CO-saturated dichloromethane solutions. Spectroscopic and crystallographic studies suggest significant cluster-to-CO back-donation in these novel cluster derivatives and interesting electronic structures. Thermal and photolytic studies of the mono-carbonyl complex revealed its interesting and synthetically useful reactivity in producing new cluster derivatives.
