文摘A new heterometallic cluster W2Ag2S4(tdt)2(PPh3)2·CH2Cl2(H2tdt=H2CH3C6H3S2)(Ⅱ) has been prepared from the reaction of a well-defined molecular building block W2S4(tdt)22-(I) with Ag complex. The compound has been characterized by X-ray diffraction study, IR., UV-Vis Spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry.Crystallographic data for the compound are: space group P21/n,a=17.234(4), b=17.622(4), c=19. 094(4) A,β= 99. 22(2)°,V=5704(2) A3, Z=4,final R=0. 042 and Rw=0. 049 for 5983 independent reflections with I≥3σ(I) The structure analysis reveals that the cluster contains a cubane-like core [W2Ag2S4]4+ . The coordination geometry of each tungsten atom is a square pyramid just as that in the building block. Two types of metal-metal bonds of W-W bond and W-Ag bond exist in the core. The distance between two Ag atoms is out of the range of bonding.
