Relatively few nitrido complexes of Ru are known examples are [Ru(N)Xi] 119 and some organometallic ones mentioned in the next section. Examples of osmium hydrides are OsH3(BFLi)(PR3)2 that has an Os/u.-H2BH2 bridge, OsH6(PR3)2, [OsH5(PR3)3]+, and OsH4(PR3)3. 

The reactions of tin hydrides with metal-metal bonded clusters has proven to be a successful route to a range of metal-tin bonded complexes. Products usually result in the cleavage of the M—M bond however, under special conditions, for example with bridging ligands, the bond can remain intact and result in either bridging or terminal tin groups, as shown for some ruthenium and osmium clusters (equations 102 and 103). 

The reactivity of osmium with terminal alkynes can be used to prepare bimetallic complexes. When an osmium hydride reacts with a terminal aUcyne that is part of a ruthenium complex, the product is a Ru-Os bimetallic complex with a hydrocarbon bridge (Scheme 16). Another bimetallic complex, [Cp(PPh3 )20s=C=C=CH-C=C-0s(PPh3)2Cp]+, resulted from the reaction between [CpOs(PPh3)2]+ with HC=CCH(OH)C=CH followed by alumina. The unsaturated C5 bridging group is V-shaped.
