 | | Target compounds that could be studied include the clusters [HRu10C(CO)24]- and [HOs10C(CO)24]- (Jackson et al., 1982; Bailey et al., 1989), which are strongly suspected to harbor four-coordinate hydrogen atoms, and the clusters [HRh12N2(CO)23]3- and [HNi38C6(CO)42]5- (Martinengo et al., 1986; Ceriotti et al., 1986), which are likely candidates for seven-coordinate and eight-coordinate hydrogen, respectively. |
 | | If L and M are transition-metal ions, the orbital interactions in the resulting compound can be described by well-understood principles, and it is therefore possible to tune the compound's magnetic properties. |
 | | For the tricobalt compound Co3(dpa)4Cl2 (1), there are "bond stretch" isomers that can be isolated from the same solution as crystals in either symmetrical s-Co3(dpa)4Cl2·CH2Cl2 or unsymmetrical u-Co3(dpa)4Cl2·2CH2Cl2 forms (Chart I), as reported by Clerac et al. |
