title: A cyano-bridged dinuclear 4f-3d array.
abstract: A cyano-bridged bimetallic 4f-3d complex, triaqua-1 kappa(3)O-mu-cyano-1:2 kappa(2)N:C-pentacyano-2 kappa(5)C-tetrakis(2-pyrrolidone-1 kappa O)chromium(III)dysprosium(III) dihydrate, [CrDy(C(4)H(7)NO)(4)(CN)(6)(H(2)O)(3)] x 2H(2)O, has been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The structure consists of a neutral cyano-bridged Dy-Cr dimer. A hydrogen-bonded three-dimensional architecture is formed through N[bond]H...O, O[bond]H...N and O[bond]H...O hydrogen bonds.
