| Abstract: | The tungsten iodide cluster W4I10 is obtained by thermal conversion of W4I13. The crystal structure of W4I10 was solved and refined by means of powder X‐ray diffraction techniques. The structure is based on a tetrahedral tungsten cluster core, two face capping, five edge‐bridging, and four apical iodido ligands of which two have bridging functionalities with adjacent clusters. Cluster chains in the structure are arranged following the motive of a kinked chain. |
