Abstract

Cluster [WRe2(C5Me5)(O)(CO) 8(CCPh)] 1a possessing a terminal oxo ligand is prepared by treatment of the acetylide cluster [WRe2(C5Me5)(CO) 9(CCPh)] with O2 or N2O; hydrogenation of 1a affords three isolable clusters, showing an example of oxo-ligand mediated sequential conversion of acetylide to alkenyl and alkylidene.
