Abstract:

The developing aspects of synthetic chemistry of cluster compounds of transition metalsare reviewed. The two general rules on bonding between metal atoms in cluster compoundsand main synthetic routes for three classes of clusters, i.e. metal carbonyl clusters, iron-sulfur clusters and molybdenum-iron-sulfur clusters, are given.

Key words: Transition metal carbonyl cluster, Iron-sulfur-cluster, Molybdenum-iron-sulfur cluster, Synthesis, Review
