Description:
In the molecular structure of the dinuclear title compound [η5-(C5(CH3)5)(CO)Fe{(μ-BCl)(μ-CO)}PtCl(P(C6H11)3)]·C6H6, the two metal atoms, iron(II) and platinum(II), are bridged by one carbonyl (μ-CO) and one chloridoborylene ligand (μ-BCl). The PtIIatom is additionally bound to a chloride ligand situatedtransto the bridging borylene, and a tricyclohexylphosphane ligand (PCy3)transto the carbonyl ligand, forming a distorted square-planar structural motif at the PtIIatom. The FeIIatom is bound to a pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligand [η5-C5(CH3)5] and one carbonyl ligand (CO), forming a piano-stool structure. Additionally, one benzene solvent molecule is incorporated into the crystal structure, positioned staggered relative to the pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligand at the FeIIatom, with a centroid–centroid separation of 3.630 (2) Å.
