Description

Re2(CO)8[μ-InRe(CO)5]2 crystallizes in the space group P 21/n with the lattice parameters α = 6.788(2) A, b = 16.352(3) A; c = 12.519(3) A, and β = 89.23(5)0 with two formula units in the cell. The molecule contains a planar Re2In2 ring, in which the Re - Re distance of 3.232(1) A and the acute angle at the bridging atom In of 71.07(3)0 are consistent with the existence of a Re - Re bond. The Re atoms of the two Re(CO)5 ligands have a trans-configuration with respect to the plane of the Re2In2-metal ring. (orig./HK)

Abstract (German)

Re 2 (CO) 8 {μ‐InRe(CO) 5 } 2 kristallisiert in der Raumgruppe P 2 1 / n mit den Gitterparametern a = 6.788(2) Å, b = 16.352(3) Å; c = 12.519(3) Å und β = 89.23(5)° mit zwei Formeleinheiten ( Z = 2) pro Elementarzelle. Das Molekül enthält einen ebenen Re 2 In 2 ‐Metallring, in dem der Re‐Re‐Abstand = 3.232(1) Å und der spitze Winkel am Brückenatom In von 71.07(3)° eine Bindung zwischen den Rheniumatomen aufzeigen. Die Re‐Atome der beiden Re(CO) 5 ‐Liganden liegen in trans ‐Stellung zur Re 2 In 2 ‐Ringebene. Die Mittelwerte der übrigen Bindungsabstände betragen: In ‐ Re = 2.766(1) Å, Re ‐ C = 1.98(2) Å, C ‐ O = 1.14(2) Å.
