Abstract

The structure of trans-μ 3-oxotris{bischloroacetatoaquochromium(III)}chloroacetate dihydrate consists of three octahedrally coordinated chromium atoms in the same plane linked axially to an oxygen atom in the center. The other axial positions are coordinated to water molecules. The anions and water of crystallization are involved in forming a three-dimensional hydrogen bonding array. Crystals of [Cr3O(ClCH2COO)63H2O)]+ ClCH2COO·2H2O,M r =916.53, are prismatic in theP21/n space group witha=10.909(4),b=14.153(4),c=22.082(9) Å,β=102.67(3)°,V=3326(4) Å3, andZ=4.
