Synthesis and structural characterization of the novel cluster compound.
Reaction of [Mo3Y(mu-S)3(dtp)4(H2O)] (Y = O, S; dtp = S2P(OC2H5)2(-)) with HgI2 gave the novel compound [[Mo3S7(dtp)3]4 x I][(HgI3)3] x 4H2O (1), which contains a [[Mo3S7(dtp)3]4 x I] tetramer and (HgI3)-. Compound 1 has been characterized by IR, Raman, UV/Vis, and NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It is shown that this formation process can be referred to as a new cluster reaction. The structure and spectroscopic data of the tetramer is also compared with that of the related discrete cluster [Mo3S7(dtp)3 x I]. Crystal data: space group F23, a = 26.786(3) A, V = 19218.7(4) A3, Z = 4, R = 0.059.
