Abstract
The title compound, [HfW(C5H5)2(C7H5O)Cl(CO)5] or [W(CO)5(C7H5O){Hf(C5H5) 2Cl}], contains two metal centres, with a (tungstenpenta-carbon-yl)oxy-phenyl- carbene unit coordinated to a hafnocene chloride. The Hf - O - C angle is nearly linear, and the C=O distance is slightly shorter than for equivalent alkoxy-carbenes. One of the cyclo-penta-dienyl (Cp) rings undergoes an offset face-to-face π-π inter-action [3.495 (7) Å] with the symmetry-related Cp ring of a neighbouring mol-ecule.
