“…Since examples of three-component mixedmetal clusters are quite limited [30][31][32][33][34][35], we decided to synthesize such heterometallic carbonyl clusters mainly by adopting the redox condensation reactions using a ruthenium carbido carbonyl cluster as the initial anionic block. In this report, successful preparation of high nuclearity cluster complexes comprising of three different transition metals (Ag, Rh, Ru), (Ag, Cu, Ru), and ( 16 ] and AgNO 3 in equimolar amounts [36]. In order to synthesize Ag-RhRu thrimetallic cluster by applying such reactions, we used the Rh-Ru bimetallic cluster [PPN][RhRu 5 C(CO) 14 -(cod)] (1, cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) [37,38].…”
