Organometallic derivatives of the tetrathiometallates. Syntheses, structures, and reactions of MS4[Rh(COD)]2 and MS4[(C5H5)Ru(PPh3)]2 (M = Mo, W)

Syntheses, crystal structures, and third-order nonlinear optical properties of two novel Mo/Cu/S clusters: [MoS4Cu4(α-MePy)5Br2]·2(α-MePy)0.5 and {[MoS4Cu4(α-MePy)3Br](μ-Br)·(α-MePy)}n (α-MePy=α-methylpyridine)

“…The Mo atom in the MoS 4 Cu 4 core of 1 is at the centre of a slightly distorted tetrahedral MoS 4 unit being S-Mo-S angles of 108.4(2)-110.7(2)°. The mean Mo-l 3 -S bond length of 2.251 Å is slightly longer than that of [MoS 4 Cu 4 (Py) 6 (1) and Br (2) (2.991(4) Å ), which may cause the Cu(4)-Br(2) bond distance (2.643 Å ) to be longer than that of Cu(2)-Br (1) (2) Crystal 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pca2 1 and the an asymmetric unit contains one [MoS 4 Cu 4 (a-MePy) 3 Br 2 ] molecule and one a-MePy solvated molecule. An X-ray analysis of 2 shows that it has a one-dimensional polymeric chain with the a-MePy solvated molecule inserted between chains (Fig.…”

“…Tetrathiometallate anions [MS 4 ] 2À (M = Mo, W) and their clusters with various transition metals are well documented owing to their rich coordination chemistry [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12], their relations to industrial catalysis process [13][14][15], biological systems [16][17][18][19], and photonic materials [20,21]. It is noteworthy that the Mo(W)/Cu(Ag)/S clusters, especially those containing pyridine and its derivatives, e.g.…”

“…On the other hand, we have recently been interested in synthesis of Mo(W)/Cu(Ag)/S clusters from [MS 4 ] 2À or [Cp*MS 3 ] À (M = Mo, W) and their third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties [25,26]. As our continuing efforts to make new clusters for the NLO materials, we herein report the preparation, structural characterization and third-order NLO properties of two novel clusters [MoS 4 Cu 4 (a-MePy) 5 Br 2 ] AE 2(aMePy) 0.5 (1) and {[MoS 4 Cu 4 (a-MePy) 3 Br](l-Br) AE (aMePy)} n (2), which were isolated from reactions of (NH 4 ) 2 [MoS 4 ] with CuBr/AgBr or CuBr in a-methylpyridine.…”

Heterometallic transition metal clusters and cluster-supported coordination polymers derived from Tp- and Tp*-based Mo(W) sulfido precursors

“…This gives us the confidence in incorporating these metal ions in network (64). All Tp* groups are omitted [86].…”

Iridium(III) and rhodium(III) cyclometalated complexes containing sulfur and selenium donor ligands

“…To our knowledge, this is the first structurally characterized organorhodium(III) compound containing the [WSe 4 ] 2À anion. A trinuclear Rh/W/S complex [{(COD)Rh} 2 (l-WS 4 )] (COD ¼ 1,5-cyclooctadiene) has been synthesized by Rauchfuss and coworkers [39]. The solid-state structure of 15 contains two symmetry-related {(Buppy) 2 Rh(l-Se) 2 } units with the W at the center of inversion.…”
