Die Kristallstrukturen von [ReCl4(PhCCPh)]2 · 2 CH2Cl2 und von PPh4[ReOCl4]

Crystal Structures of ReCl₄(PhC?CPh)]₂ · 2 CH₂Cl₂ and PPh₄ReOCl₄] Single crystals of ReCl₄(PhC?CPh)]₂ · 2 CH₂Cl₂ were obtained by chilling dilute solutions of the solvate ReCl₄(PhC?CPh)POCl₃] in CH₂Cl₂. PPh₄ReOCl₄] was formed by the reaction of the diphenyl acetylene complex ReCl₅(PhC?CPh)] with PPh₄Cl · H₂O in CH₂Cl₂ solution. ReCl₄(PhC?CPh)]₂ · 2 CH₂Cl₂: space group P2₁/c, Z = 2, 2244 observed independent reflexions, R = 0.038.
