The Diphosphorus Complex [Cp(2)Mo(2)(CO)(4)(η(2)-P(2))] as a Building Block for the Synthesis of Mixed-Hybrid Coordination Polymers

The three-component reaction of the tetrahedral diphosphorus complex [Cp(2)Mo(2)(CO)(4)(η(2)-P(2))] (1), with Ag[BF(4)] (2) in the presence of 2,2'-bipyrimidine (3) leads to the formation of the two novel two-dimensional networks 4 and 5. Compound 4 is a new two-dimensional organometallic-organic hybrid polymer, while derivative 5 represents a unique two-dimensional organometallic-inorganic-organic hybrid polymer. These results show the possibility of synthesizing a new class of coordination polymers, which could not be obtained from two-component reactions with organic molecules in addition of metal ions.
