Substitution Chemistry of Ruthenium Clusters with the Diphosphine Ligands: 4,5-Bis(Diphenylphosphino)-4-Cyclo-Penten-1,3-Dione (bpcd), (Z)-Ph₂PCH=CHPP₂ and 3,4-Bis(Diphenylphosphino)-5-Methoxy-2(5H)-Furanone (bmf)
Description:
The chemistry of transition metal clusters has been a fast developing area of organometallic research in recent years. Compared to mononuclear metal complexes, polynuclear clusters offer more opportunities to study cooperative effects and electron reservoir properties between contiguous metal centers, in addition to functioning as storehouses for the release of catalytically active small fragments capable of exhibiting heterosite subtrate activation. Theoretically, metal clusters are intermedia…
