Abstract
(Chemical Equation Presented) Shorter than ever: Reduction of chromium(II/III) chlorides stabilized by amidopyridinato ligands leads to a dichromium complex that has a Cr-Cr bond length of 1.75 Å. This bond is exceptionally short, even for bonding orders higher than four, and is at present the shortest reported metal-metal bond for a stable compound. The experimental results are supported by theoretical calculations. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
