This article reports the first example of the oxidative addition of dioxygen to a transition-metal cluster to give a bis(/t3-oxo) cluster. Remarkably, this reaction leads to 4-electron oxidation of the cluster and an increase in the cluster electron count of 8-electrons, and it provides a simple model for the dissociative chemisorption of oxygen at a metal surface. This work adds significantly to the known value of organometallic oxo clusters as structural models for inorganic oxides and surface-bound oxide and to recent research on the dissociative addition of oxygen to multiply bonded dirhenium complexes.1·2 The coordinatively unsaturated cluster cation [ 3(μ3-€0)(μdppmjs]2"1" (1), dppm = PhaPCLLPPha, has been shown to be a good model for chemisorption of several small molecules at a Pt(l 11) surface,3 but it fails to react with Oz. Since bimetallic Pt-Re catalysts may be more useful than platinum alone, it was of interest to prepare coordinatively unsaturated platinumrhenium clusters as models for reactivity at the Pt/Re surface. Reaction of 1 with [Re(CO)s]-gave the new cluster cation [Pts(Re(CO)3}^-dppm)3]+ (2).4 The cluster 2 was obtained as redblack crystals with either PFe~ or BPhr anions, and the structure of 2 as the [BPI14] salt is shown in Figure 1,4 The cluster core has tetrahedral geometry, and the metal-metal bonds are short and presumably strong (Table I). The cluster cation 2 has a valence electron count of only 54 and so is coordinatively unsaturated.5 The simplest interpretation of the bonding in 2 is that the three filled M-M bonding orbitals (ai + e symmetry) of a Pt3^-dppm)3 fragment act as donors to the three vacant acceptor orbitals (also ai + e symmetry) of a
