Interaction of covalent hydrides of transition metals with Lewis acids. Molecular and crystalline structures of (eta5-CΛ5HΛ5)Λ2Mo(μ-HΛ2)FeIΛ2xNCHΛ3C and (eta5-CΛ5HΛ5)Λ2Mo(μ-HΛ2)CoBrΛ2xNCHΛ3C

Using the methods of X-ray structural and IR spectroscopy analyses the structure of the complexes of molybdenocene dihydride with halides of iron triad has been investigated. (eta5-C5H5)2Mo(μ-H2)CoBr2xNCH3C is crystallized in monoclinic cell with the parameters: a=7.821(1), b=12488(2), c=16.275(3)A, γ=105.74(1), sp. gr. P21/n, Z=4. (eta5-C5H5)2xMo(μ-H2)FeI2xNCH3C is crystallized in triclinic cell with the parameters: a=8.572(2), b=8.067(2), c=12496(3)A, α=87.72(2). β=90.82(2), γ=71.22(2), sp.gr. P anti 1, Z=2. The conclusion is made, that the structural type of bimetallic complexes of a sipilar type is determined by the ratio of iron triad halide acidity, halogen atom nucleophility and solvent basicity
