A neutron diffraction study of [OsClH3(PPh3) 3]: A complex containing a highly stretched dihydrogen ligand
(Figure Presented) Elastic bonds: The structure of [OsHCl(η 2-H2)(PPh3)3] has been determined by neutron diffraction (see figure). The complex presents an unusual H...H contact of 1.48(2) A and can be regarded either as a highly stretched dihydrogen complex or as a compressed dihydride complex.
