Abstract
The pentaphospha-ferrocene [Fe(η5-P3C2But 2)(η5-P2C3But 3)], 1, reacts with [Ru3(CO)12], with extrusion of iron, to afford the novel phosphino-phosphinidene triruthenium nonacarbonyl cluster, [Ru3(CO)9(P5C5But 5)], whose structure, elucidated by a single crystal X-ray crystallographic study, is related to that of the P5C5But 5 cage.Keywords
