Abstract

The heteronuclear cobalt-platinum cluster [Co2Pt2(IPr)22-CO)4(CO)4] can be obtained from the [Pt(IPr)] fragment through an addition reaction with [Co2(CO)8], and with subsequent cluster fragmentation, with [Co4(CO)12] and [Co33-CH)(CO)9]; the latter reaction with the methylidyne cluster also afforded another cobalt-platinum cluster [Co4Pt26-C)(IPr)22-CO)5(CO)6]. These are the first examples of Co-Pt heteronuclear clusters containing NHC ligands.
