Zusammenfassung
First examples of the coordination chemistry of the As4S3 cage were obtained from solutions of As4S3 center dot M(CO)(5) (M = Cr, W) in CH2Cl2 and CuCln in CH3CN (n = 1) or CH3OH (n = 2) through interdiffusion techniques. The compounds (As4S3)(CuCl)(n) (1: n = 1; 2: n = 2) exhibit Cu coordination exclusively through the sulfur bridges. The crystal structure of 1 contains a saw-like ...

First examples of the coordination chemistry of the As4S3 cage were obtained from solutions of As4S3 center dot M(CO)(5) (M = Cr, W) in CH2Cl2 and CuCln in CH3CN (n = 1) or CH3OH (n = 2) through interdiffusion techniques. The compounds (As4S3)(CuCl)(n) (1: n = 1; 2: n = 2) exhibit Cu coordination exclusively through the sulfur bridges. The crystal structure of 1 contains a saw-like (1)(infinity)[CuCl] backbone to which As4S3 cages are alternately fixed on both sides through two of their sulfur atoms.
