Abstract
The reaction of Os{3}(CO){1}{2} with glyoxalbis(alkylimine) (alkyl = i-Pr, t-Bu) yielded Os{2}(CO){6}(DAB) complexes. The complexes have been characterized by field desorption mass spectrometry, }1{H NMR and IR spectroscopy. They are isostructural with Fe{2}(CO){6}(DAB) and Ru{2}(CO){6}(DAB). In these complexes the DAB ligand is a six-electron donor system coordinated via two lone
