In the title compound, [Os2I(C12H10P)(C18H15P)2(CO)4].C6H6, the Os—Os bond distance is unusually short [2.781 (1) Å]. The two Os atoms are symmetrically bridged by both an iodo and a phosphido ligand. Two carbonyl groups and a triphenylphospine moiety complete the Os-atom coordination spheres. There are only two other reported structures with an iodo ligand bridging two Os atoms [Sutton, Nivin & Moss (1983). Inorg. Chim. Acta, 70, 207–210; Geoffroy, Rosenberg, Herlinger & Rheingold (1986). Inorg. Chem. 25, 2916–2919].
