Studies on the Synthetic System of V/Ag/S Cluster Compounds and Structural Characterizations of V(2)AgS(4), V(2)Ag(2)S(4), and V(2)O(2)(&mgr;-S)(2) Complexes.

The reaction system (NH(4))(3)VS(4)/Ag(PPh(3))(2)Cl/R(2)dtcNa in CH(3)CN was studied to afford two V(2)Ag(1)(-)(2)S(4) cubanelike cluster compounds and a trinuclear V(3)O(3)S(2) complex. (Et(4)N)[V(2)AgS(4)(Me(2)dtc)(2)(PPh(3))].(1)/(2)CH(3)CN ([Et(4)N]1.
