The title complex, 2Cl-tris(tetrahydrofuran-1kappaO)lithiumneodymium,
[Nd(C9H13)3(mu-Cl)Li(C4H8O)3], consists of the neutral moiety ((t)BuCp
)3Nd linked to the cation [Li(thf)3]+ by a mu-Cl bridge. The Nd atom i
s coordinated by three eta5-bonded tert-butylcyclopentadienyl ((t)BuCp
) ligands and a Cl- ion to form a slightly deformed tetrahedron. Nd-Cl
= 2.797 (2), Li-Cl = 2.345 (9) angstrom and Nd-Cl-Li = 141.4 (3)-degr
ees.
