{1,3-Bis[(diphenylphosphanyl-κP)oxy]prop-2-yl-κC2}iodido(trimethylphosphane)cobalt(II)
The title compound, [Co(C27H25O2P2)I(C3H9P)], was synthesized by the addition of 1-iodobutane to a solution of the parent cobalt sheepshead bay boats complex {1,3-bis[(diphenylphosphanyl)oxy]prop-2-yl}bis(trimethylphosphane)cobalt(II).Two five-membered cobaltocycles with considerable ring bending (sum of internal angles = 516.4 and 517.7°)
