Abstract

Decacarbonyl-μ-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane triosmium crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a = 24.422(5), b = 12.381(2), c = 24.788(5) Å, β = 103.69(3)°, V = 7282 (2) Å3, and Z = 8. The molecule consists of a triangular arrangement of osmium atoms with the organic ligand bridging two adjacent osmium atoms at equatorial sites. The Os—Os distances lie in the close range 2.8563(9)–2.8895(11) Å with an average value of 2.87(1) Å.
