Abstract
<jats:p>A reaction between Ru3(CO)12 and 1,5,9-trimethylcyclododeca-1,5,9-triene has given the orange-red complex Ru3(µ3-2?1,2?3-C14H17Me)(µ-CO)(CO)7, fully characterized by a single- crystal X-ray study. The hydrocarbon is attached to an irregular closed Ru3 cluster by two Ru -C s-bonds and two ?3-allylic systems, the latter involving exocyclic CH2 and CH groups. The preparation of Ru3(µ-H)(µ3-C12H15)(µ- dppm )(CO)7 is also reported.</jats:p>
