Abstract
Fragmentation of Ru3(CO)11(Ph2PCCPri) in wet THF or THF–EtOH generates the tetranuclear carbonyl clusters Ru4(CO)10(CCHPr1)(OR)(PPh2)(R = H, Et) which have been shown by X-ray diffraction to consist of ‘butterfly’ arrangements of metal atoms with multi-site bound µ4-vinylidene and face-bridging OH or OR groups.
