Di-μ-pyridyl-1:2κ2 N:C 2;2:1κ2 N:C 2-μ-tetrahydrofuran-κ2 O:O-bis[bromo(tetrahydrofuran)magnesium(II)] tetrahydrofuran hemisolvate

Abstract

The title compound, [Mg2Br2(C5H4N)2(C4H8O)3]·0.5C4H8O, contains dimeric associations of Mg atoms bridged by tetrahydrofuran (THF) molecules. The coordination polyhedron of the Mg atom is a slightly distorted MgCNO2Br trigonal bipyramid with two THF molecules in the axial positions. One O atom occupies a site with symmetry 2.
