metal-organic compounds
The X-ray crystal structure of the benzene solvated title compound, [In2(C18H22N2)(CH3)6].2C6H6, shows that the In atom has a four-coordinate distorted tetrahedron geometry with an In—N bond length of 2.504 (4) Å. The C—In—C angle values lie around 115° [114.1 (3)–116.5 (3)] and C—In—N angles range from 96.9 (2) to 110.7 (2)°. The piperazine ring is in a chair conformation. Two trimethylindium moieties are in a trans configuration and axial conformation. The complex molecule is centrosymmetric.
