That zinc in feeling : The complexes [(3,5‐Me 2 C 5 H 3 N) 2 Zn(ESiMe 3 ) 2 ] (E=Se, 1 ; E=Te, 2 ) are prepared and found to be good reagents for the generation of ternary MM′E materials. From 2 (see structure; Te red, Zn blue, Si yellow, N green), the ternary ZnCdTe nanocluster [Zn 2.6 Cd 7.4 Te 4 (TePh) 12 (P n Pr 3 ) 4 ] ( 3 ) is prepared. The optical properties of 3 are shown to be modulated relative to those of related binary CdTe cluster molecules.
