Abstract

The interaction of [HFeCo3(CO)12] (1) with oxide supports gives a variety of surface metal carbonyl species, as revealed by IR spectroscopy. Vapour phase adsorption on SiO2 leaves the starting compound unchanged, whereas on partially hydrated Al2O3 and MgO, impregnated in solution, deprotonation of 1 occurs, to give the anion [FeCo3(CO)12]-1 (2) linked to the surface. Adsorption of 1 from the vapour phase onto fully dehydrated Al2O3 and MgO leads subsequently to cluster decomposition, with the loss of carbon monoxide. The results indicate that the nature of the support and the method of preparation of the supported complex play an important role in forming the surface species.
