Chemistry of CS₂ and CS₃ Bridged Decaborane Analogues: Regular Coordination Versus Cluster Expansion.

ABSTRACT: In an effort to synthesize metallaheteroborane clusters of higher nuclearity, the reactivity of metallaheteroboranes, nido-[(Cp*M)₂B₆S₂H₄(CS₃)] (Cp* = C₅Me₅) (1: M = Co; 2: M = Rh) with various metal carbonyls have been investigated. Photolysis of nido-1 and nido-2 with group 6 metal carbonyls, M'(CO)₅.THF (M' = Mo or W) were performed that led to the formation of a series of adducts [(Cp*M)₂B₆S₂H₄(CS₃){M'(CO)₅}] (3: M = Co, M' = Mo; 4: M = Co, M' = W; 5: M = Rh, M' = Mo; 6: M = Rh, M' = W) instead of cluster expansion reactions. In these adducts, the S atom of C
