Structures of Metallocarboranes. VIII. Crystal and Molecular Structure of the Eleven-Vertex Heterobimetallocarborane 1,8-Di-eta-cyclopentadienyl-1-ferra-8-cobalta-2,3- dicarbaundecaborane(9), 1,8-(eta-C5H5)2-1-Fe-8-C0-2,3-C2B7H9(1).

摘要

Polyhedral metallocarboranes containing two different transition metal vertices can be prepared by use of either polyhedral expansion or polyhedral subrogation reactions on previously prepared metallocarboranes. To assess the effect of a one electron deficiency, the x-ray structural determination of (C5H5)2FeCoC2B7H9 was undertaken.
