Binuclear oxidative addition of Sb–Cl bonds with the clusters Os3(CO)11(NCCH3), 1, or Os3(CO)10(NCCH3)2, 2, was found to be an effective synthetic route to organometallic clusters and rings containing μ2-SbPh2 or μ3-SbPh moieties. Thus, the reaction of SbPh2Cl with 1 afforded the tetranuclear ring O...
