Thermolysis of [Os(SC6F4(F-2)) (SC6F5)(2)(PMe2Ph)(2)] (1) in refluxing
toluene affords [Os(SC6F5)(2)(o-S2C6F4) (PMe2Ph)] (2) and [Os(C6F5)(2
)(o-S2C6F4) (PMe2Ph)(2)] (3) through a process involving C-F cleavage
as well as C-S bond formation. The X-ray structures of 1, 2 and 3 have
been determined. In the solid state compound 1 shows a C-F --> Os int
eraction. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
