Tetraethylammonium tricarbonylchlorido(quinoxaline-2-carboxylato-κ2N1,O)rhenate(I)

Abstract

In the title compound, (C8H20N)[Re(C9H5N2O2)Cl(CO)3], the ReI atom is coordinated facially by three carbonyl groups, the bidentate quinoxaline-2-carbaldehyde ligand and a chloride atom, forming a distorted octahedral geometry.. The crystal packing is controlled by C—H...O hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking interactions involving the benzene rings, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.4220 (1) Å.
