Abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [W(C₂₂H₁₉N₃)(CO)₅], contains two molecules. The geometry at the W atom is approximately octahedral, with the cis bond angles in the range 86.11 (13)-92.75 (11)°. The axial carbonyl bonds [W-C = 1.960 (4) and 1.967 (4) Å] are shorter than the equatorial carbonyl bonds, which lie in the range 2.014 (4)-2.047 (4) Å.
