Abstract: The molecular structure of a mixed terphenyl COT complex [COT is cyclooctatetraene] of the element yttrium of composition (Dpp)Y(COT)(-Cl)Li(THF)₃ [Dpp is 2,6-diphenylphenyl and THF is tetrahydrofuran] or [LiY(C₈H₈)(C₁₈H₁₃)Cl(C₄H₈O)] is reported. The monomeric complex is composed of one ⁸-bonded COT and one -bonded terphenyl ligand, as well as a lithium chloride moiety with the alkali metal atom being solvated by three tetrahydrofuran molecules.
