In the recent year, the authors extended investigations into insertion reactions by investigating the insertion of dicarboxylate acetylene into the metal-metal bond of Re{sub 2}(CO){sub 9}(NCMe). Secondly, the authors considered the ring opening reactions of the cyclic thioethers: tetrahydrothiophene and thiacyclohexane when complexed to Os{sub 3}(CO){sub 10}(NCMe){sub 2}. In a third effort, various osmium complexes of cyclobutynes were synthesized and the subsequent reactivity probed. Finally, energy storage (via absorption of UV-visible photons) in osmium cluster compounds was investigated.
