Carbidoheptarhenate Complexes of Mercury Hydroxide and Arenethiolate - Crystal-Structures of (Net(3)Bz)(2)(Re7C(Co)(21)Hgoh) and (PPh4)(2)(Re7C(Co)(21)Hgsc6H4Br)
Treatment of [Re7C(CO)(21)HgCl](2-) with AgNO3 in aqueous acetone provides the hydroxomercury derivative [Re7C(CO)(21)HgOH](2-), which in turn reacts with 4-bromothiophenol to form the thiophenolate-substituted compound [Re7C(CO)(21)HgSC6H4Br](2-).
