The reaction of Os3 (CO)10 (NCMe)2 with closo-o-C2 B10 H10 has yielded two interconvertible isomers Os3 (CO)9 (μ3 -4,5,9-C2 B10 H8 )(μ-H)2 (1 a) and Os3 (CO)9 (μ3 -3,4,8-C2 B10 H8 )(μ-H)2 (1 b) formed by the loss of the two NCMe ligands and one CO ligand from the Os3 cluster. Two BH bonds of the o-C2 B10 H10 were activated in its addition to the osmium cluster. A second triosmium cluster was added to the 1 a/1 b mixture to yield the complex Os3 (CO)9 (μ-H)2 (μ3 -4,5,9-μ3 -7,11,12-C2 B10 H7 )Os3 (CO)9 (μ-H)3 (2) that contains two triosmium triangles attached to the same carborane cage. When heated, 2 was transformed to the complex Os3 (CO)9 (μ-H)(μ3 -3,4,8-μ3 -7,11,12-C2 B10 H8 )Os3 (CO)9 (μ-H) (3) by a novel opening of the carborane cage with loss of H2 .
Os3(CO)10(NCMe)2与邻碳硼烷-o-C2B10H10反应生成了两种可相互转化的异构体Os3(CO)9(μ3-4,5,9-C2B10H8)(μ-H)2(1a)和Os3(CO)9(μ3-3,4,8-C2B10H8)(μ-H)2(1b),它们是由Os3簇失去两个NCMe配体和一个CO配体形成的。邻碳硼烷-o-C2B10H10的两个BH键在其加成到锇簇的过程中被活化。向1a/1b混合物中加入第二个三锇簇,得到配合物Os3(CO)9(μ-H)2(μ3-4,5,9-μ3-7,11,12-C2B10H7)Os3(CO)9(μ-H)3(2),它包含两个连接在同一个碳硼烷笼上的三锇三角形。加热时,2通过碳硼烷笼的一种新型打开方式并伴随着H2的损失转化为配合物Os3(CO)9(μ-H)(μ3-3,4,8-μ3-7,11,12-C2B10H8)Os3(CO)9(μ-H)(3)。
