Abstract: | Reduction of ZrBr4 with HSnBu3 yielded a blue solid. When this blue solid was treated with PMe3, a hexanuelear cluster Zr6Br14H4( PMe3)4] (2) was isolated. Reaction of the blue solid with PPh4]Br in CH2Cl2 resulted in the formation of a paramagnetic and unstable cluster anion, Zr6Br18H5]2– (3), which disproportionated to form a new cluster anion, Zr6Br18H5]3– (4) and some Zr(IV) species. Compounds containing 4 can also be obtained from reaction of the blue solid with Br– in MeCN. Reduction of ZrCl4 with HsnBu3 gave a red–brown solid, and Zr6Cl14H4(AsMe3)4] (9) and Zr5Cl12H4(AsMe3)5](8) were obtained by reaction of the red–brown solid with AsMe3. No cluster compounds containing amine ligands were obtained in the reaction of the red–brown solid with amines; only compounds containing the Zr6Cl18 H5]3– anion and ammonium cations were isolated. Altogether ten products were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction and where possible, by 1H NMR studies. |
