Retention of the cobalt–cobalt bond in [MeN(PF2)2]3Co2(CO)2 upon halogenation: the X-ray crystal structure of [MeN(PF2)2]3Co2Br4
Abstract
Reaction of [MeN(PF2)2]3Co2(CO)2 with Br2 in diethyl ether gives red-brown [MeN(PF2)2]3Co2Br4 shown by single crystal X-ray diffraction to retain the [MeN(PF2)2]3Co2 unit consisting of a cobalt–cobalt bond bridged by three MeN(PF2)2 ligands.
