title: Tri-μ-chlorido-bis-[(η(5)-penta-methyl-cyclo-penta-dien-yl)rhodium(III)] hexa-fluorido-phosphate from synchrotron radiation.
abstract: In the title complex salt, [{(η(5)-C5Me5)Rh}2(μ-Cl)3]PF6, the dinuclear, single-charged cation is formed by the cojoining of two classic (η(5)-C5Me5)RhCl3 'piano-stool' units by bridging of the three choride ligand 'legs'. The crystal structure shows several close H⋯F contacts between the hexa-fluorido-phosphate counter-ions and the C5Me5 ligands.
