(2.2.2-Cryptand)potassium tetrakis(η2-ethylene)cobaltate(−I)
The title salt, [K(C18H36N2O6)][Co(C2H4)4], is one of only two known homoleptic ethylenemetalates. The cation and anion are well separated, which gives an unperturbed tetrahedral anion as is expected for a formally Co−I d10 metal center. The considerable elongation of the C=C bonds of...
