Abstract
Oxidation of (η5-C5Ph5)2W (1) with I2 affords [(η5-C5Ph5)2W]+I 3- (1+I3-), which is reconverted to 1 upon treatment with Cp2Co. Compound 1+I3- crystallizes in the space group P21/c with a=14.5258(8), b=18.6515(9) and c=15.5185(8) Å; β=111.512(1)°; V=3911.5(4) Å3; Z=2; and R1/wR2=0.050/0.091. The structure of 1+ reveals that the two cyclopentadienyl groups are planar, staggered and exactly parallel. © 1999 Elsevier Science S.A.
