Popis: The reactions between the cobalt carbonyl anchored silanetriol Co3(CO)9CSi(OH)3 (1) and EMe3 (E = Al, Ga and In) in THF result in the formation of the respective group 13 heterosiloxanes [Co3(CO)9CSiO3E·THF]4 (Al (2); Ga (3); In (4)) in good yields. The new heterosiloxanes have been extensively characterized by means of their analytical and spectroscopic (mass, IR, and NMR) data. Additionally, the molecular structure of the Al complex 2 has been determined by X-ray diffraction studies. The compound contains a cubic Al4O12Si4 core with four Co3(CO)9C cluster units anchored on each of the silicon atoms at the alternating corners of the cube. Interestingly, there are three different types of Co3(CO)9C cluster units within the same molecule based on the mode of coordination of the CO ligands. In order to test the utility of these compounds in catalytic conversions, hydroformylation reactions involving 1-hexene as substrate have been carried out at 120 °C under a H2/CO initial pressure of 70 bar. A series of s...
