Abstract

Reduction of [Co(Bu^tNC)₅PF₆ with K-Hg in tetrahydrofuran affords the complex Co₂(Bu^tNC) ₈], and similarly trans-[RuCl₂(Bu^tNC) ₄] with Bu^tNC, trans-[RuCl₂(Bu ^tNC)₄] with Ph₃P and Bu^tNC, and trans-[RuCl₂-(PrⁱNC)₄] with PrⁱNC give [Ru(Bu^tNC)₅], [Ru(Bu^tNC) ₄(Ph₃P)], and [Ru₂(PrⁱNC) ₉], respectively; the structures of [Co₂(Bu ^tNC)₈] and [Ru(Bu^tNC)₄(Ph ₃P)] are established by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
