The reaction of 4 with dppm (Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂) in THF at room temperature affords in good yields [RuRh(μ‐CO)(CO)₃(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 7 ). 7 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P 1 with a = 9.7503(19), b = 13.399(3), c = 15.823(3) Å and V = 1854.6 ų. Moreover single crystals of [CoRh(CO)₄(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(^tBu₂PH)] ( 9 ) could be obtained and the single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis revealed that 9 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/a with a = 11.611(2), b = 13.333(2), c = 18.186(3) Å and V = 2693.0(8) ų.

Crystal Structures of the Samarium Amido Complexes [Sm(l-X){N(SiMe₃)₂}₂(THF)]₂ with X = Cl, Br The crystal structures of the title compounds have been determined by X-ray methods. [Sm(μ-Cl) · {N(SiMe₃)₂}₂(THF)]₂ ( 1 ): Space group P2₁/n, Z = 2, lattice dimensions at 223 K: a = 1429.5(2), b = 1302.3(3), c = 1658.6(3) pm, β = 114.212(10)°, R = 0.0561. [Sm(μ-Br) · {N(SiMe₃)₂}₂(THF)]₂ ( 2 ): Space group Pbca, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at 223 K: a = 1850.0(7), b = 1611.0(9), c = 1888.1(6) pm, R = 0.0497. 1 and 2 form centrosymmetric dimeric complexes via μ-X-halogeno bridges. The samarium atoms are coordinated in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal surrounding, the THF molecule and one of the bridging halogen atoms being in axial positions.
