G. Gervasio et al., SYNTHESIS AND STRUCTURE OF CO-3(MU(3)-S)(C6F5)(CO)(8), A COBALT CARBONYL CLUSTER WITH AN ARYL-METAL SIGMA-BOND, Inorganica Chimica Acta, 251(1-2), 1996, pp. 35-39
Dicobalt octacarbonyl and perfluoro diphenyl disulfide react to form C
o-3(mu(3)-S)(C6F5)(CO)(8) (1), an unusual cobalt carbonyl cluster cont
aining an aryl-metal sigma bond. The structure of complex I was determ
ined by X-ray crystallography; it crystallizes in triclinic P-1 space
group with a = 8.218(2), b = 13.379(2), c = 18.864(2) Angstrom, alpha
= 106.96(2), beta = 96.91(2), gamma = 97.39(2)degrees. The final R is
0.0376 for 5286 observed reflections (F-o > 4.0 sigma F-o).
