Multinuclear nmr (1H, 77Se, 111/113Cd, 119Sn, 199Hg, as appropriate) has been used to study Y(1-) - EPh(1-) exchange in Me2CO or MeCN between (RnM'Y (RnM' = Ph3Sn or MeHg; Y = Cl, Br, I, NCO, or NCS) and the adamantane-like anions (2-) (E = S, M = Zn, Cd, or Co; E = Se, M = Zn or Cd), as their tetraalkylammonium salts.Quantitative terminal substitution of the clusters occurs in most cases, giving 4-x(MY)x>(2-) (x = 1-4).However, reaction is incomplete for M = Cd, E = S or Se, RnM'Y = Ph3SnNCO or Ph3SnNCS and for M = Zn or Co, E = S, RnM'Y = MeHgI.Differences in the extents of reaction for Ph3SnY and MeHgY are consistent with the position of equilibrium in MeHgY:Ph3SnEPh mixtures.Group interchange provides a convenient alternative synthesis of the known halogen-substituted clusters (2-) (M = Zn or Cd, Y = Cl, Br, or I; M = Co, Y = Cl), and the first syntheses of (2-) (Y = Br or I) and various pseudohalogen-substituted adamantanoid anions.The nuclei used for full direct nmr characterization of the new clusters in solution were: 77Se and 113Cd for 4-x(CdY)x>(2-) (x = 1-4; Y = NCO or NCS); 77Se for 4-x(ZnY)x>(2-) (x = 1-4, Y = NCO or NCS); 113Cd for 4-x(CdY)x>(2-) (x = 1-4; Y = NCO or NCS); 1H for (2-) (Y = Br, I, NCO, or NCS).The first solution 1H nmr spectrum of (2-) is also reported.
