Selective functionalisation of Re6 cluster anionic units: from hexa-hydroxo [Re6Q8(OH)6]4- (Q = S, Se) to neutral trans-[Re6Q8L4L'2] hybrid building blocks.
The reaction of [Re6Q(i)8(OH)(a)6]4- (Q = S, Se) with p-tert-butylpyridine (TBP) in water leads to neutral trans-[Re6Q8(TBP)4(OH)2] whose hydroxyl reactivity with carboxylic acid and TBP exchange reaction with functional pyridine have been investigated.
