Abstract
Low-temperature neutron diffraction shows that the title compound has an H ⋯ H separation [1.357(7)A] intermediate in length between the accepted ranges for ‘classical’ non-bonded dihydrides and more recently reported dihydrogen ligands, thus providing a model for the intermediate stages of oxidative addition of dihydrogen at transition metal centres.
