Abstract:We employ a metal‐metal salt metathesis strategy to access low‐valent tantalum‐copper heterometallic architectures (Ta−μ2‐H2−Cu and Ta−μ3‐H2−Cu3) that emulate structural elements proposed for surface alloyed nanomaterials. Whereas cluster assembly with carbonylmetalates is well precedented, the use of the corresponding polyarene transition metal anions is underexplored, despite recognition of these highly reactive fragments as storable sources of atomic Mn−. Our application of this strategy provides structural… Show more
