Thermolysis of tetrahedral Mo2Ir2(mu-CO)(3)(CO)(7)(eta(5)-C5H5)(2) in refluxing toluene affords small amounts of Mo3Ir3(mu(4)-eta(2)-CO)(mu(3)-CO)(CO)(10)(eta(5)-C5H5)(3) (1). Reaction of 1 with Rh(CO)(2)(eta(5)-C5Me5) in refluxing dichloromethane gives Mo3Ir3(mu-CO)(4)(CO)(7)(eta(5)-C5H5)(3)(eta(5)-C5Me5) (2) in moderate yield. X-ray diffraction studies show the metal cores adopt edge-bridged trigonal bipyramidal and bicapped trigonal bipyramidal structures, respectively. Cluster 2 is electron precise with 96 CVE, in contrast to the only precedent group 6-group 9 mixed-metal cluster with an identical core geometry, the 94 CVE W3Ir4(mu-H)(CO)(12)(eta(5)-C5H5)(3) (3). DFT studies have been employed to rationalize the contrasting behavior of 2 and 3. Time-dependent DFT has been employed to assign the key transitions in the linear optical absorption spectrum of 2.
