Reaction of [Mo 3 Y( μ ‐S) 3 (dtp) 4 (H 2 O)] (Y=O, S; dtp=S 2 P(OC 2 H 5 ) 2 − ) with HgI 2 gave the novel compound {[Mo 3 S 7 (dtp) 3 ] 4 ⋅I}{(HgI 3 ) 3 }⋅4 H 2 O ( 1 ), which contains a {[Mo 3 S 7 (dtp) 3 ] 4 ⋅I} tetramer and (HgI 3 ) − . Compound 1 has been characterized by IR, Raman, UV/Vis, and NMR spectroscopy and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. It is shown that this formation process can be referred to as a new cluster reaction. The structure and spectroscopic data of the tetramer is also compared with that of the related discrete cluster [Mo 3 S 7 (dtp) 3 ⋅I]. Crystal data: space group F 23, a =26.786(3) Å, V =19218.7(4) Å 3 , Z =4, R =0.059.
