Abstract
The new octahedral molybdenum thiocyanide cluster complex K7[Mo6S8(CN)6]·8H2O was synthesized by excision of the cluster core (the reaction of ZnMo6S8 with a melt of KCN). The structure of the complex was established by X-ray diffraction analysis. The reaction of Mo6Se8 with a KCN—KSCN mixture afforded the mixed-ligand cluster anions [Mo6(Se,S)8(CN)6]7–. The salt of composition K1.5Cs5.5[Mo6Se6.8S1.2(CN)6]·8H2O was obtained. The complexes are isostructural to each other and to the selenium analog described previously. The magnetic properties and the electronic and IR spectra were measured and discussed.
