Abstract

The reaction of (η5:η1-2,3,4,5-tetra-methyl-penta-fulvene)tantalum(V) dicarbazolide chloride (1) with etheric HCl results in the formation of the title compound (2), [Ta(C10H14)(C12H8N)Cl2]. The TaV atom has a distorted tetra-hedral coordination environment in a three-legged piano-stool fashion. The conformation of the penta-fulvene exocyclic C atom to the three other ligands is staggered and not eclipsed, as found in the crystal structure of 1. Inter-molecular inter-actions include π-π stacking, H⋯π inter-actions and weak C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.
