Abstract
Molecular structure of tris(acetylacetonato)scandium, Sc(C5H7O2)3, is investigated by gas-phase electron diffractometry. The main structural parameters of the molecule are evaluated. The average intemuclear distances and angles correspond to C3 symmetry. The chief structural motif is trigonal antiprisms of six oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen atoms with a scandium atom at the center. It is found that rg[Sc-O) = 204.1(8) pm and rg(C−O) = 124.7(4) pm
