The 2-pyridyldimethylsilane, 2-(CH3)2SiHC5H4NLH reacts with to afford the novel cluster 1 in which each of the ligands L has been shown from single crystal X-ray diffraction study to bond to one osmium atom through the silicon atom only.In addition, several silyl-substituted triosmium clusters of general formula > (n = 0, 2A; 1, 2B; 2, 2C), > (n = 0, 3A; 1, 3B) have been synthesized from the reactions of the silane derivatives BrC6H4CH2Si(CH3)3-mHm with the activated clusters and , respectively.The acetonitrile molecule in 3A is readily substituted by a triphenylphosphine molecule to yield > (4).Reaction of with 2-BrC6H4Si(CH3)2H affords the cluster > (5).In the case of 3A the silane moiety bonds to an osmium atom at a position equatorial to the Os3 triangle while the acetonitrile molecule takes up an axial position.The molecular structure of 4 contains both the silane and the triphenylphosphine moieties at the terminal, equatorial positions on two separate osmium atoms.The behaviour under high performance liquid chromatography of these clusters has been determined and correlated with the nature of the ligands and with the molecular weights and sizes of the clusters.

The reactions of (o-diphenylphosphinobenzyl)dimethylsilane with manganese and rhenium carbonyl afford o-(C6H5)2PC6H4CH2Si(CH3)2M(CO)4 (M=Mn, Re), in which the ligand behaves as a chelate.Similar reactions occur with ?-cyclopentadienemolybdenum tricarbonyl dimer to give o-(C6H5)2PC6H4CH2Si(CH3)2Mo(?-C5H5)(CO)2.However, photolysis of a mixture of the ligand with manganese carbonyl yielded o-(C6H5)2PC6H4CH2Si(H)(CH3)2Mn2(CO)9.
