A cyanide-bridged bimetallic complex,
The crystal structure of the bimetallic cyanide-bridged title complex, triaqua-1kappa(3)O-&mgr;-cyano-1:2kappa(2)N:C-pentacyano-2kappa(5)C-t etrakis(N, N-dimethylformamide)-1kappa(4)O-chromium(III)praseodymium(III) monohydrate, was obtained by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The central praseodymium(III) ion is eight-coordinate, arranged in a square antiprism, while the chromium(III) ion is six-coordinate, oriented octahedrally. Molecules in the crystal lattice are held together by a network of hydrogen bonds.
