T1 - Substituent effects on Ru3C2 clusters: Structural comparisons of some μ3-arylethynyl triruthenium-carbonyl clusters, [Ru3(μ-X)(μ3-C2Ar)(Y2)(CO) 7], X = H, or Au(PPh3), Y2 = μ-dppm or (CO)2

N2 - Complexes of the form [Ru-3(mu-H)(mu(3)-C2X)(mu-dppm)(CO)(7)] have been widely characterized structurally for diverse R = H, Bu-t, CMePh(OH), CPhCH2, C5H7, C5H6Me, C6F5, as well as being studied theoretically The R = Ph derivative was found to be isotypic with its C6F5 analogue, presenting an unusual opportunity for a comparative structural study, both structures being (re-)deter-mined at 'low'-temperature, whereupon the unit cell of the Ph derivative was found to double. The structure of [AuRu3(mu-C2C6F5)(CO)(9)(PPh3)] is also recorded.
