cis-Dicarbonylbis[1,2-ethanediylbis(diphenylphosphine)-P,P′]tungsten(0) benzene sesquisolvate
Abstract
The title compound, cis-[W(CO)2(dppe)2] [dppe is 1,2-ethanediylbis(diphenylphosphine), C26H24P2], was obtained as a by-product during the preparation of the dinitrogen complex trans-[W(CO)(N2)(dppe)2]. The crystal structure of the benzene sesquisolvate, i.e. cis-[W(C26H24P2)2(CO)2]·1.5C6H6, has been determined.
