Synthesen und Kristallstrukturen von Cu‐ und Ag‐Komplexen mit [Ta6S17]4—‐Ionen als Liganden

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Cu and Ag Complexes with [Ta₆S₁₇]^4— Ions as Ligands In the presence of phosphines saturated solutions of the thiotantalates (NEt₄)₄[(Ta₆S₁₇)] · 3MeCN react with copper or silver salts to give new heterobimetallic Ta—M—S clusters (M = Ag, Cu). These clusters contain the intact cluster core of the [Ta₆S₁₇]^4— anion. Compounds [Cu(PMe₃)₄]₃[(Ta₆S₁₇)Cu(PMe₃)] · 2MeCN ( 1 ), (NEt₄)[(Ta₆S₁₇)Ag₃(PMe₂ⁱPr)₆] · 5MeCN ( 2 ), [(Ta₆S₁₇)Cu₄ (PMe₂ⁱPr)₈] · MeCN ( 3 ), [(Ta₆S₁₇)Cu₅Cl(PMe₂ⁱPr)₉] · MeCN ( 4 ) and [Ta₂Cu₂S₄Cl₂(PMe₂ⁱPr)₆] · 2MeCN ( 5 ) are presented herein. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by single crystal X‐ray structural analyses.
