Abstract
The clusters Ru-3(CO)(12), Ru6C(CO)(17), H4Ru4(CO)(12) and H2Os3(CO)(1 0) react with the phosphine, P(m-C6H4SO3Na)(3), to afford water solubl e clusters which are catalyst precursors in the water gas shift reacti on. Electrospray mass spectrometry provides an excellent means of char acterising the clusters in solution from their negative ion spectra. ( C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
