Résumé
The reaction of [HRu3(CO)(11)](-) (1) with an excess of PCy3 in refluxing THF gives the electron-deficient anion [HRu3(CO)(7)(PCy3)(2)](-) (2) which has the rare electron count of 44e. As evidenced by the H-1 and P-31 NMR spectra, 2 exists in solution in the form of two isomers 2a and 2b, one of which crystallises from acetone as the tetraethylammonium salt. The single-crystal X-ray analysis shows a closed Ru, framework with the hydride ligand bridging the metal-metal bond between a phosphine-substituted and a phosphine-free ruthenium atom (isomer 2b).
