Tetra-kis(μ-acetato-κ²O:O')bis-[(tetra-hydro-furan-κO)chromium(II)].

ABSTRACT: The title compound, [Cr₂(C₂H₃O₂)₄(C₄H₈O)₂] or [Cr₂(OAc)₄(THF)₂] (OAc is acetate, THF is tetra-hydro-furan), was obtained by recrystallization of anhydrous chromium(II) acetate [Cr₂(OAc)₄] from hot tetra-hydro-furan. The centrosymmetric complex forms monoclinic crystals, space group C2/c, and consists of two Cr^II atoms bridged by four acetate ligands. Additionally, each Cr^II atom is coordinated by a terminal THF ligand, which leads to a square-pyramidal coordination.
