An Unusual Building Block for Supramolecular Aggregates: The Mixed Group 15/16 Element Ligand Complex [(Cp*Mo)2(,3-P3)(,2-PS)] [Ein ungewöhnlicher Baustein für supramolekulare Aggregate aus Elementen der Gruppe 15 und 16: der gemischte Ligandkomplex [(Cp*Mo)2(,3-P3)(,2-PS)]]

Abstract

Unusual suspect: The complex [(Cp*Mo)2(,3-P3)(,2-PS)] reacts with CuI and Ag[Al{OC(CF3)3}4] to form two novel linear polymers (see structure of CuI derivative; Cu light blue, I violet, Mo blue, P pink, S yellow). Even with X-ray crystallographic data available, the fact that the sulfur atoms in these polymers do not coordinate to the Group 11 metal centers could only be established with the help of 31P MAS NMR spectroscopy.
