The cluster anion [Fe₃(μ₃-Se)(CO)₉]^2- (I) was isolated as a salt (Et₄N)₂[I] by the reaction of Fe(CO)₅ with Na₂Se in isopropanol. The protonated form, (μ-H)₂Fe₃(μ₃-Se)(CO)₉ (II), was obtained by acidifying the reaction mixture and used for the synthesis of the heterometallic cluster FeMo₂(μ₃-Se)(CO)₇Cp₂ (III), CP=η⁵-C₅H₅. The structure of I and III was established by X-ray diffraction analysis. Crystals I are monoclinic, a=14.210(3), b=11.547(3), c=19.831(2), Å, β=90.92(2)°, V_cell=3254(1) ų, space group P2/c, Z=4, d_calc=1.550 g/cm³, Syntex P2₁, λCuK_α, R(F)=0.1333 for 1264 F_hkl>6σ(F_hkl).

The reaction of [(Cp*Ta)(2)B(4)H(9)(μ-BH(4))] (1; Cp* = η(5)-C(5)Me(5)) with [Fe(2)(CO)(9)] in hexane yielded [(Cp*Ta)(2)B(5)H(7){Fe(CO)(3)}(2)] (2) and [(Cp*Ta)(2)B(5)H(9){Fe(CO)(3)}(4)] (3) in moderate yield. Cluster 2 represents the first example of a bicapped pentagonal-bipyramidal metallaborane with a deformed equatorial plane, and 3 can be described as a fused cluster in which two pentagonal-bipyramidal units are fused through a common 3-vertex triangular face. Compounds 2 and 3 have been characterized by mass spectrometry and IR, (1)H, (11)B, and (13)C NMR spectroscopy, and the geometric structures were unequivocally established by crystallographic analysis.
