The reaction of [Ru-3(CO)(12)] with (SPR2)(2)NH produced, initially, [(mu(2
)-H)Ru-3(mu(3)-S) {mu 2-S,S,P'-SPPh2)(PPh2)N}(CO)(8) and [(mu(2)- H) Ru-3{m
u(2)-S,S,P'-(SPPh2) (PPh2)N}(CO)(9)] in which for both compounds one of the
P=S bonds of the ligand has been broken while the other P=S group is bonde
d through the sulfur atom to two ruthenium atoms. In one of the compounds d
escribed, the lost sulfur atom moves to a triply bridging position bonded t
o the triangle of metal atoms. In the second compound, the sulfur atom is l
