摘要
The triangular clusters [Zn3Cp3]+ and [Zn2CuCp3] were obtained by addition of the in situ generated, electrophilic, and isolobal species [ZnCp]+ and [CuCp] to Carmona's compound, [CpZn-ZnCp], without splitting the Zn-Zn bond. The choice of non-coordinating fluoroaromatic solvents was crucial. The bonding situations of the all-hydrocarbon-ligand-protected clusters were investigated by quantum chemical calculations revealing a high degree of σ-aromaticity similar to the triatomic hydrogen ion [H3]+. The new species serve as molecular building units of CunZnm nanobrass clusters as indicated by LIFDI mass spectrometry.
