Abstract

The [Cs (2 + x)][H 3O (1 - x)]Tc 2Br 8·4.6H 2O (x = 0.221) salt has been synthesized and characterized by single crystal XRD. Multi-configurational quantum chemical calculations on Tc 2X 8 n- (X = Cl, Br; n = 2, 3) have been performed and indicate the π component in the Tc-Tc bond to be stronger for n = 3.
