title: Synthesis and characterization of binuclear half-sandwich metal (Co, Ir and Ru) complexes containing ancillary ortho-carborane-1,2-dithiolato ligands.
abstract: The assembly of soluble, air-stable, binuclear structures, namely {(p-cymene)Ru[S(2)C(2)(B(10)H(10))]}(2)(micro-pyz), {Cp*Co[S(2)C(2)(B(10)H(10))]}(2)(micro-pyz), {Cp*Co[S(2)C(2)(B(10)H(10))]}(2)(micro-bpy), {Cp*Co[S(2)C(2)(B(10)H(10))]}(2)(micro-bpe) and {Cp*Ir[E(2)C(2)(B(10)H(10))]}(2)(micro-bpo) (E = S (), Se), in which organometallic units are bridged by pyridyl-based organic linkers, are synthesized. The complexes have been fully characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy, as well as elemental analysis. The molecular structures are established through X-ray crystallography.
