X-Ray crystal structure of the 1 : 2 adduct of aluminium trichloride with acetonitrile; an interesting example of auto-complex formation

Abstract

Single crystal X-ray studies have shown that the co-ordination complex of aluminium trichloride with acetonitrile of stoicheiometry AlCl3–2MeCN has the ionic structure [AlCl(MeCN)5]2+[AlCl4]2 and contains one molecule of solvent acetonitrile per asymmetric unit.
