Abstract

The crystal structures of the tetranuclear mixed-metal complexes LWRu 3(CO)12H, L=C5H5 and C 5Me5, were determined, indicating the presence of a butterfly arrangement with an unusual μ42-CO ligand; in solution, these isomers are in equilibrium with other isomers containing only normal σ-bonded CO ligands.
