Research Abstract |
Interaction between trimetallic polyhydrido clusters and fluoroalcohol was studied by means of various spectroscopic analyses. For a trimetallic cluster, it was shown that an adduct was formed in solution with five molecules of alcohol and equilibrium constant was shown to be varied between Ru_3 and Ru_2Ir clusters. Formation of an alcohol-adduct facilitates elimination of dihydrogen from the metal center similar to the reactivity of cationic polyhydrido cluster. It was also shown that the labile intermediate can be stabilized by the interaction of alcohol molecules.
