(2,2-Bipyrid-yl)bis-(η-penta-methyl-cyclo-penta-dien-yl)strontium(II).

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Sr(C(10)H(15))(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))], the Sr-N distances are 2.624 (3) and 2.676 (3) Å, the Sr⋯Cp ring centroid distances are 2.571 and 2.561 Å and the N-C-C-N torsion angle in the bipyridine ligand is -2.2 (4)°. Inter-estingly, the bipyridine ligand is tilted. The angle between the plane defined by the Sr atom and the two bipyridyl N atoms and the plane defined by the 12 atoms of the bipyridine ligand is 10.7 (1)°.
