The crystal structure of [MgCl 2 (HCOOC 2 H 5 ) 2 ] 3 , obtained by slow crystallization at room temperature from a solution of α-MgCl 2 in dry ethyl formate, has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The structure was solved by direct and Fourier methods and refined by least-squares technique. This polymeric adduct is formed by asymmetric units having the formula [MgCl 2 (HCOOC 2 H 5 ) 2 ] 3 and crystallizes in an orthorhombic cell, space group Pbca (no. 61), a = 20.96(2) A, b = 37.02(2) A, c = 9.518(4) A, V= 7385(8) A 3 , Z = 8 and d c = 1.31 g cm #753 more...
