Abstract
The heteronuclear cluster RuOs3(μ-H)2(CO)13 (1) reacts with indene under thermal activation to afford the novel clusters RuOs3(μ-H)(CO)9(μ-CO)2(η 5-C9H7) (3), RuOs3(μ-H)(CO)9(μ3,η 5:η2:η2-C9H7) (4) and Ru2Os3(μ-H)(CO)11(μ3, η5:η2:η2-C9H 7) (5), the latter two possessing indenyl ligands in the μ3,η5:η2:η2 bonding mode. Cluster 5 exists as a mixture of two isomers. The inter-relationship among the clusters has also been investigated.
