The unsaturated cluster [Os 3 (µ-H) 2 (CO) 10 ] reacts with a variety of-conjugated phosphole ligands: 2,5-bis(2-thienyl)-1-phenylphosphole, 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)-1-phenylphosphole, and 1,2,5triphenylphosphole, to give the monosubstituted [Os 3 (µ-H)(H)(CO) 10 (P)] and [Os 3 (µ-H) 2 (CO) 9 (P)] derivatives. Variable-temperature 1 H NMR studies for the decacarbonyltriosmium complexes show that the hydride ligands undergo fluxional behavior and its decarbonylation gave the nonacarbonyl unsaturated species with equivalent hydrides. An X-ray crystallographic analysis of [Os 3 (µ-H) 2 (CO) 9 (P)] (2b) (P = 1,2,5-triphenylphosphole) is reported. From 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)-1phenylphosphole four isomers are obtained, the 1 H NMR spectrum at low temperature indicates that the phosphole ligand may occupy pseudoaxial and equatorial sites at one of the osmium atoms bearing the bridging hydride. The reaction of [Os 3 (CO) 10 (CH 3 CN) 2 ] with cyanoethyldiphenylphosphine affords mono-and bis(phosphine)-substituted clusters. The X-ray crystal structure of the monosubstituted [Os 3 (CO) 11 (η 1-PC 15 H 14 N)] (3) derivative is discussed. The dynamic behavior observed for [Os 3 (CO) 10 (η 1-PC 15 H 14 N) 2 ] (4) is studied by variable-temperature 1 H and 31 P{ 1 H} NMR spectroscopy. The latter studies show a mixture of two geometric isomers,
