Syntheses of Two Chiral Clusters [η5—C5H4C（NR）CH3]—RuNiM（CO）5（μ3—S）（R=NH—C6H3—2,4—（NO2）2,M=Mo,3;M=W,4）and the Single—crystal Structure of Cluster 3

1 INTRODUCTION The synthesis of chiral clusters containing four different atoms at the vertexes of the tetrahedron has been extensively studied because the chiral cluster can induce an asymmetric catalysis potentially[1]. Until now, many tetrahedron-type chiral clusters have been reported, but only a few of the reactions about the organic group in these clusters were investi- gated[2～4]. In this paper, we described the syntheses of clusters 3 and 4, and the structure of the former. 2 …
