✦ Synopsis


A neutron diffraction analysis was carried out at 120 K on a single crystal of [K(18-crown-6)][(PPh 3 ) 2 ReH 6 Cr(CO) 3 ] • THF in order to locate the hydride ligands. Three of the hydrides are bound terminally to the Re atom while the other three bridge the Re-Cr bond; the bridging hydrides are closer to the Re atom. This compound can be thought of as a donor-
