Abstract

Six new copper(I) clusters, [Et4N]2[{MOS3}2Cu4(μ-SBut)2] (1a: M = Mo; 1b: M = W), [Et4N][{MOS3}2Cu6(μ-SBut)3] (2a: M = Mo; 2b: M = W) and [Bu4N]2[{MOS3}3Cu9(μ-SBut)33-SBut)][I] (3a: M = Mo; 3b: M = W) have been prepared by the reactions of thiomolybdates and thiotungstates with CuSBut under various conditions. The [{MOS3}2Cu4(μ-SBut)2]2− dianions in 1a and 1b represent the first examples of double butterfly-shaped Mo(W)/Cu/S clusters. Addition of more Cu atoms to 1a or 1b resulted in the formation of incomplete double cubane-like clusters 2a or 2b. Single crystal structural studies showed that the anions of 2a and 2b are formed in a mouth-to-mouth fashion by two incomplete cubanes [MOS3Cu3] (M = Mo, W) with three μ-SBut− linkages. In the molecular structure of 3b, the SBut− ligands act as μ- and μ3-bridges which link three WOS3Cu3 incomplete cubane-like fragments. An iodide ion crystallises in the cavity defined by the three incomplete cubanes in 3b. The spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of all the clusters are also studied.
