Two labile but air-stable Pt(0) complexes Pt(η 2 -P-P)(η 2 -dba) [dba ) dibenzylideneacetone; P-P ) 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) (3a) or 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ruthenocene (dppr) (3b)] were prepared from Pt 2 (dba) 3 (1) and the corresponding metallocenyl diphosphine. Reductive addition of 3 to Ru 3 (CO) 9 (µ 3 -S) 2 (4) gave good yields of two novel square clusters PtRu 3 (CO) 6 (µ-CO) 2 (η 2 -P-P)(µ 4 -S) 2 [P-P ) dppf (5a) or dppr (5b)]. A one-pot reaction mixture containing 1, 4, and the diphosphine (2) gave Ru 3 (CO) 7 (µ-P-P)(µ 3 -S) 2 [P-P ) dppf (6a) or dppr (6b)] along with 5a and 5b. All products have been characterized by IR, 1 H, and 31 P{ 1 H} NMR. In addition, X-ray crystal analyses were also performed on complexes 3a, 5a, 5b, and 6a. 3a is a planar Pt(0)-olefin complex stabilized by chelating dppf and a trans,trans-dba moiety coordinated via a CdC functionality. Compounds 5a and 5b are rare examples of almost regularly octahedral heterometallic square clusters with two µ 4 -S ligands above and below the PtRu 3 plane.
