Abstract: The reaction of (2,4-C7H11)3Nd with HC=CC6H5 in toluene leads to [(2, 4-C7H11)2NdC=CC6H5]2,which crystallizes in the space group Pcab with unit cell pa-rameters a=1.0489 (11), b=1.8033 (12), c=2.1064 (15)nm and Z=4,least-squares refinement based on 2323 observed reflections converged to a final Rvalueof 0.08.The molecular structure shows that the complex is a dimer, in which two(2,4-C7H11)2Nd units are connected by asymmetrical alkynide bridges with indepen-dent Nd-C(alkynide) bond lengths of 0.2552(25)and 0.2560(24)nm, Nd-C=Cangles of 124.1(17)° and 134.2(17)°.
