Abstract
The temperature dependence of the mean-square-amplitude of vibration and the motional anisotropy of the metal atom in a number of structurally related organometallics has been examined in detail and can be related to the molecular level architecture of these solids. In particular, it is noted that in octamethylferrocenylmethanol, there is a competition between the “gear-wheel effect” observed in related octamethylferrocenyl complexes and hydrogen bonding between neighboring molecules in the solid below the melting point.
