Abstract

μ-Benzylidyne tricobalt nonacarbonyl, Co 3(CO) 9( μ-CPh), reacts readily with sulfur donor ligands. Tridentate ligands 1,3,5-trithiacyclohexane and tris(thiomethyl)methane both replace three carbonyl groups giving capped derivatives. Dimethylsulfide groups also replace carbonyl groups, forming mono-, di- and trisubstituted derivatives. The capping benzylidyne group is in all cases maintained intact. The crystal structures of the cluster compounds with tridentate sulfur ligands were determined.
