N2 - Reaction of Na2Cr2(CO)10 with t-Bu2AsCl in THF yields blue-green crystalline [Cr(CO)5]2(μ-t-BuAs) (3) in ca. 60% yield. The X-ray crystal structure of 3 shows an arsinidene (t-BuAs) unit bridging two Cr(CO)5 units with no Cr-Cr bond (Cr-Cr = 4.315 (2) Å). The reaction mixture containing 3, in the presence of PPN+Cl-, gives a mononuclear Cr(0) complex containing a CrAs4 heterometallocycle; (CO)4CrAs-t-BuCl(As-t-Bu)2As-t-BuCl (4) in ca. 12% yield. Crystal data for 3: C14H9O10AsCr2, Mr = 516.06, triclinic, P1, a = 9.397 (3) Å, b = 9.483 (3) Å, c = 11.778 (5) Å, α = 87.86 (4)°, β = 70.67 (3)°, Γ = 77.77 (3)°, U = 967.3 (5) Å3, Dcalcd = 1.593 g cm-3, Z = 2, λ(Mo kα) = 0.71069 Å (graphite monochromator), μ(Mo Kα) = 15.43 cm-1, final R = 0.047, Rw = 0.055 from 2804 observed reflections (3617 measured).
