The solid-state reactions of(NH4)(2)[MS4] (M = W, Mo), [CU(CH3CN)(4)](PF6),
and bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm) at 110 degrees C produced pentanu
clear clusters [MS4Cu4(dppm)(4)](PF6)2 (1, M = W; 2, M = Mo), while the ana
logous solution reaction in CH2Cl2 for M = W yielded a tetranuclear cluster
[WS4Cu3(dppm)(3)] (P-F) (3). On the other hand. the (NH4)(2)[WS4]/CuBr/dpp
m reaction system resulted in the formation of a tetranuclear cluster [WS4C
u3(dppm)(3)]Br (4) either in solid at 110 degrees C or in CH2Cl2, where the
solid-state reaction gave also [Cu-3(dppm)(3)-Br-2]Br (5) as a side produc
t. When the solid-state reactions between (NH4)(2)[WS4], [Cu(CH3CN)(4)](PF6
) (or CuBr), and dppm were carried out under the presence of [(n-Bu)(4)N]Br
, [WS4Cu2(dppm)(3)] (6) and [(n-Bu)(4)N][WS4Cu3-Br-2(dppm)(2)] (7) were gen
erated, respectively, while the corresponding solution reactions in CH2Cl2
gave rise to 3 and 4. Compounds 1-7 were fully characterized. 1 crystallize
