All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically.
All hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms were
included as riding model with fixed isotropic Us in the

reddish brown and some dark gray precipitate formed
during the reaction. After filtration and removal of all
volatiles in vacuo, the residue was extracted consecu-
tively with 15 ml of ether and 15 ml of THF. Colorless
