Abstract
A new butterfly-like cluster [WOS3Cu2(PPh3)(2)(Py)(2)] was obtained by reac ting [WOS3Cu2(PPb3)(3)] with pyridine. The crystal structure of the cluster has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The compound shows an unusual fo lded structure, in which two 4-coordinate Cu atoms are bound to the WOS3 mo iety via two S-S edges.
