Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The addition of [ReH(CO)] to the electronically unsaturated complex [Re(μ-H)(CO)] rapidly and selectively gives the anion [Re4H(W-H)2(CO)I?]' (2), containing an open chain tetranuclear metal skeleton, as revealed by a single-crystal X-ray analysis of its [NEt] salt. In the solid state the three metal-metal interactions display a staggered-eclipsed-staggered conformation, while in solution H and C NMR spectra have shown conformational freedom around the three Re-Re interactions and a dynamic process exchanging the two hydrides bound to the terminal HRe(CO) moiety, as well as the carbonyls trans to them (E -48(1) kJ/mol). A windshield-wiper motion of the HRe(CO) fragment around the two trans diaxial carbonyls, analogous to that previously observed in the related anions [ReH(μ-H)(CO)] and [ReH(μ-H)(CO)], is likely responsible for this exchange. The tetrametallic skeleton of the anion 2 in solution easily undergoes fragmentation to trinuclear species. Under CO atmosphere the clean formation of [ReH(CO)] and [ReH(μ-H)-(CO)] has been recognized. The anion 2 is formed (even if in lower yields) also by reaction Of [ReH(μ-H)(CO)] with "Re(CO)(THF)", obtained by treatment of [Re(CO)] with MeNO in THF. A C NMR investigation has clarified that such "Re(CO)(THF)" reagent is indeed a mixture of three eq-[Re(CO)L] species, containing THF, HO, and, in a minor amount, NMe, as labile L ligands. The reaction of the same eq-[Re(CO)L] species with [ReH(CO)] affords in good yields the tetranuclear cluster anion [Re(μ-H)(CO)}] (3). The single-crystal X-ray analysis of [NEt]3 has revealed also in this case a Re chain, with an all-staggered conformation, of idealized C symmetry. The low-temperature C NMR spectrum of the carbonyls has shown a higher symmetry in solution, suggesting conformational freedom around all of the Re-Re interactions.
