Reactions of the triosmium cluster Os3(μ-H)(μ-OH)(CO)10 with naphthols
摘要:
Reaction of the cluster Os-3(mu-H)(mu-OH)(CO)(10) (1) with 1-naphthol afforded the isomeric clusters 2a and 3a with the formulae OS3(mu-H)(2)(mu(3)-1-OC10H6)(CO)(9). A similar reaction with 2-naphthol, however, gave Os-3(mu-H)(mu-2-OC10H7)C)(10), 4b, and the analogue of 2a. These clusters have been structurally characterised to confirm the mode of anchoring of the naphthols. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
