Hexa-?-chlorido-hexa-chlorido(?-hexa-methyl-benzene)trialuminium(III)lanthanum(III) benzene solvate.


ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Al(3)LaCl(12)(C(12)H(18))]·C(6)H(6), all mol-ecules are located on a mirror plane. Three chloridoaluminate groups and a hexa-methyl-benzene mol-ecule are bound to the central lanthanum(III) ion, forming a distorted penta-gonal bipyramid with the ?(6)-coordinated arene located at the apical position. The hexa-methyl-benzene ligand disordered between two orientations in a 1:1 ratio is also involved in parallel-slipped ?-? stacking inter-molecular inter-actions with a benzene solvent mol-ecule [centroid-centroid distance 3.612?(4)?Å].
