    The second-order rate constants for the reactivity of (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}Rh(CO)\sb2) \sp{2-} towards phosphorus donors were determined. In order to correlate the results to electronic and/or steric effects, steric profiles relating log k\sb2 to an intrinsic reactivity (α),(\alpha), an electronic parameter (β),(\beta), and a steric parameter (θ)(\theta) were constructed. From differences in intrinsic reactivity for phosphines and phosphites, an intermediate configuration involving a bridging carbonyl has been proposed for the reaction of (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}Rh(CO)\sb2) \sp{2-} with various phosphorus donors (PY\sb3).Nitrosylation of a series of mixed-metal heptarhenium clusters, (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}ML\sb{\rm n}) \sp{2-}, gave the mono-substituted products, (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{20}ML\sb{\rm n}\rbrack\sp-. A variety of spectroscopic techniques were used to characterize the reaction products. Variable temperature \sp{13}C NMR studies determined the solution structure of (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{20}(NO)Rh(CO)\sb2) \sp-. From kinetic studies, the nitrosyl substituted cluster (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{20}(NO)Rh(CO)\sb2) \sp- exhibits enhanced reactivity toward phosphorus ligands in comparison with (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}Rh(CO)\sb2) \sp{2-}.The carbonyl ligands bound to (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}Rh(CO)\sb2) \sp{2-} display unusual intermolecular and intramolecular exchange. Upon treatment with \sp{13}CO, (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}Rh(CO)\sb2) \sp{2-} is selectively \sp{13}CO enriched to (\rm Re(CO)\sb3Re\sb6C(\sp{13}CO)\sb{18}Rh(\sp{13}CO)\sb2\rbrack \sp{2-}. A capping Re(CO)\sb3 moiety trans to the rhodium cap remains unenriched. Formation of the radical species (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}Rh(CO)\sb2\rbrack\sp- by chemical oxidation results in complete carbonyl scrambling, which is revealed upon reduction to the parent cluster (\rm Re(\sp{13}CO)\sb3Re\sb6C(\sp{13}CO)\sb{18}Rh(\sp{13}CO)\sb 2\rbrack \sp{2-}. The selectively \sp{13}Co enriched cluster (Re(CO)\sb3Re\sb6C(\sp{13}CO)\sb{18}) \sp{2-} has been formed in a decapping reaction of (\rm Re(CO)\sb3Re\sb6C(\sp{13}CO)\sb{18}Rh(\sp{13}CO\sb2\rbrack \sp{2-} with excess PPh\sb3 in acetonitrile.Two-electron oxidation of (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}) \sp{3-} in the presence of P(OPh)\sb3 affords (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}(P(OPh)\sb3)) \sp-. \sp{13}C NMR indicates that this cluster exhibits partial charge separation. (Re\sb7C(CO)\sb{21}(P(OPh)\sb3)) \sp- decomposes in acetonitrile to form (Re\sb6C(CO)\sb{19}) \sp{2-} and (Re(CO)\sb3(P(OPh)\sb3)\sb2(NCCH\sb3)) \sp+, and therefore it represents a directly observed intermediate in a cluster decapping reaction.Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T12:36:21Z (GMT).
