Abstract

Trading places: The first terminal-ligand substitution reactions on the trigonal-prismatic cluster [W6CCl18]2− are reported. The new cluster [W6CCl12(SO3CF3)6]2− is a convenient precursor for solvated [W6CCl12]2+ cluster cores. Self-exchange kinetics experiments on a pyridine-substituted variant (see picture; black W, green Cl, blue N, dark gray C) reveal that the core is classified as inert.
