The structural determination of the Criegee-Ludwig-King compound of composition C13H17N1C5H5 has revealed the first proven example of a cyclobutenyl-metal complex. The crystals containfour formula units in an orthorhombic unit cell of symmetry P2i2i2i (D24) anddimensions a= 11.66±0.03 A., b= 11.77±0.03 A., c= 11.41±0.03 A. The final three-dimensional isotropic least-squares refinement has yielded discrepancy factors of%= 7.8% and R2= 10.2% for 970 observed reflections. The structure consists of discrete molecules of approximately C.,-m symmetry in which each nickel (II) is covalently bonded to a-cyclopentadienyl anion and a nonplanar l, 2, 3, 4-tetramethyl-l-evo-cyclopenta-l', 3'-dienecyclobutenyl anion. The latter is symmetrically coordinated to the nickel (II) via the allylic fragment of the cyclobutenyl ring system. The planes of the allylic carbons and the cyclopentadienyl ring carbons are essentially parallel with the nickel (II) sandwiched between them. The detailed geometries of the rings and resulting stereochemistry are discussed.
