摘要
All attempts to prepare light lanthanide dicyclopeutadienyt chloride failed,due to the disproportionation reaction. The crystal complex of [（η5-C5H5）2NdCl.OC4H8]2 was successfully prepared by the reaction of NdCl3·2C4H8O with cyclopentadienyl sodium （molar ratio 1:1.8）in tetrahydrofuran at room temperatureThe composition of the title compound was determined by the methods of elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy and photoelectron spectroscopy. The crystal structure of [（η5-C5H5）2NdCl·OC4H8]2 was determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction. Data were collected at-60℃ under dry nitrogen atmosphere.The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c,with Z=2. Lattice parameters are: a=8.201（3）, b=21.589（6）,c=8.596（3）,β=109.10（3）°.The structure was solved by Patterson and Fourier techniques and refined by least-squares to a final conventional R=0.0636 for 1680 reflections. There are two Nd atoms in the dimeric unit which are bridged asymmetrically by the two
