Abstract
Two new high nuclearity cluster anions, [Pt2Rh11(CO)24]3– and [PtRh12(CO)24]4– have been obtained by controlled pyrolysis of [PtRh5(CO)15]–; their structures show the hexagonal close packed metal array found in the isoelectronic series [Rh13H5–n(CO)24]n–, with a Pt atom inside a 12 metal atom shell, but with a different arrangement of CO ligands.Keywords
