Abstract
The reaction of $\rm Ru\sb6C(CO)\sb{17}$ with C$\sb{60}$ followed by carbonyl substitution with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane gave $\rm Ru\sb6C(CO)\sb{12}(dppm)(\mu\sb3$-$\eta\sp2,\eta\sp2,\eta \sp2$-C$\sb{60}).$ A related arene-Ru$\sb6$C compound, $\rm Ru\sb6C(CO)\sb{13}\{PPh\sb2(\mu$-$\eta\sp6$-$\rm C\sb6H\sb6)\},$ was obtained by thermolysis of $\rm Ru\sb6C(CO)\sb{16}PPh\sb3,$ in which the tendency of the Ru$\sb6$C framework to form arene complexes is extend to a coordinated triphenylphosphine moiety, leading to (reversible) coordination of a phenyl ring to an adjacent ruthenium center in the cluster unit.
