The unsaturated cluster reacts with azides N3R n ( 2 ), CH2Ph ( 3 ), cyclo-C6H11 ( 4 ), or CPhCH2 ( 5 ) to give complexes with the general formula .The structure of complex ( 1 ) has been established by X-ray analysis, and show to contain an equilateral Os3 triangle one edge of which is bridged by the HN3-Ph group.This complex crystallises in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a=9.665(3), b=8.823(4), c=25.571(14) Angstroem, β=100.17(4) deg, and Z=4.This structure was solved by a combination of direct methods and Fourier-difference techniques and refined by blocked-cascade least squares to R=0.042 for 3155 observed intensities.At 85 deg C in 1,2-dimethoxyethane the complexes ( 1 )-( 4 ) liberate a N2 and a CO molecule to give complexes with the general formula 3-NR)> n ( 7 ), CH2Ph ( 8 ), or cyclo-C6H11 ( 9 ) >.The structure of complex ( 6 ) contains an isosceles triangle of Os atoms which is capped by the N atom of the NPh group.This complex also crystallises in space group P21/c with a=11.630(4), b=9.217(4), c=18.527(7) Angstroem, β=99.71(2) deg, and Z=4.The structure was solved and refined, by the same techniques as for complex ( 1 ), to R=0.033 for 2861 observes intensities.Thermolysis of the azido-1-phenylethene adduct ( 5 ) under the same conditions, however, gave ( 10 ) presumably by rapid tautomerism after loss of N2.Azides with an electron-withdrawning substituent adjacent to the azido-function evolved N2 when reacted with to give clusters of the type or products which are , apparently, formed by rearrangement of this system, i. e. ( 14 ) ( from phenacyl azide ) and ( 15 ) ( from 2-azidobenzimidazole ).
