Synthesis of Ru-Pt and Ru-Pd mixed-metal imido clusters from a diruthenium imido-methylene scaffold [(Cp*Ru)2(mu2-NPh)(mu2-CH2)].
The diruthenium mu2-imido mu2-methylene complex [(Cp*Ru)2(mu2-NPh)(mu2-CH2)] serves as a bifunctional scaffold for cluster synthesis, producing a mu3-imido Ru2Pt cluster [(Cp*Ru)2(mu3-NPh)(mu2-CH2)Pt(PMe3)2] on treatment with [Pt(eta2-C2H4)(PMe3)2] and a mu3-methylidyne Ru4Pd2 cluster [(Cp*Ru)2(mu2-NPh)(mu3-CH)PdCl]2 with [PdMeCl(cod)].
