Structural Diversity in Molecular Nickel Phosphide Carbonyl Nanoclusters.

ABSTRACT: The reaction of [Ni₆(CO)₁₂]^2- as a [NBu₄]⁺ salt in CH₂Cl₂ with 0.8 equiv of PCl₃ afforded [Ni₁₄P₂(CO)₂₂]^2-. In contrast, the reactions of [Ni₆(CO)₁₂]^2- as a [NEt₄]⁺ salt with 0.4-0.5 equiv of POCl₃ afforded [Ni_22-xP₂(CO)_29-x]^4- (x = 0.84) or [Ni₃₉P₃(CO)₄₄]^6- by using CH₃CN and thf as a solvent, respectively. Moreover, by using 0.7-0.9 mol of POCl₃ per mole of [NEt₄]₂[Ni₆(CO)₁₂] both in CH₃CN and thf, [Ni_23-<
