Abstract
Tetra-kis(μ-acetato-κ2 O:O')bis-{[1,3-bis-(2,6-diiso-propyl-phen-yl)imidazol-2-yl-idene-κC 2]chromium(II)} tetra-hydro-furan disolvate, [Cr2(C2H3O2)4(C27H36N4)2]·2C4H8O or [Cr2(OAc)4(IDipp)2]·2C4H8O (1), and tetra-kis-(μ-acetato-κ2 O:O')bis-{[1,3-bis-(2,4,6-tri-methyl-phen-yl)imidazol-2-yl-idene-κC 2]chromium(II)},{Cr2(C2H3O2)4(C21H24N2)2] or [Cr2(OAc)4(IMes)2] (2), were synthesized from anhydrous chromium(II) acetate [Cr2(OAc)4] and the corresponding NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) in toluene as solvent. Both complexes crystallize in the triclinic system, space group P. The mol-ecular structures consist of Cr2(OAc)4 paddle-wheels that carry two terminal NHC ligands. This leads to a square-pyramidal coordination of the chromium atoms.
