Abstract
Abstract Laser Raman spectra of solid dodecacarbonyl-triangulo-ruthenium(0) and -osmium(0), M3(CO)12 (M = Ru, Os), have been recorded at 295, 200, 100 and 15 K using a surface scanning technique to avoid sample decomposition. The data indicate that neither compound undergoes a phase change throughout the temperature range investigated. Contrary to earlier measurements at room temperature only, site-symmetry and correlation effects are more widespread than hitherto suspected.
