Abstract

The crystal structure of CoCl(PMes3)3 has shown that the compound is not isostructural with its rhodium analogue. The title compound crystallizes in the cubic space groupPa3 (No. 205) whereas the analogous Rh compound belongs to the triclinic space groupP ¯1. The cobalt derivative exhibits unit cell constanta=15.490(7) A andZ=8 forDc=1.15 g cm−3. Full-matrix least-squares refinement gave a finalR value of 0.055 for 283 observed reflections. The Co-Cl bond in the molecule lies along a crystallographic three-fold axis with a Co-Cl distance of 2.21(1) A. The unique Co-P distance is 2.240(6) A.
