Bis(μ-dimesitylborinato-κ(2) O:O)bis­[(2-methyl­pyridine-κN)lithium]

The title compound, [Li(2)(C(18)H(22)BO)(2)(C(6)H(7)N)(2)], is a lithium dimesitylboroxide dimer in which the lithium cation is also coordinated by one mol­ecule of 2-methyl­pyridine. At the core of the structure is an Li(2)O(2) four-membered ring. The structure is centrosymmetric with an inversion...

Descripción
Sumario:The title compound, [Li(2)(C(18)H(22)BO)(2)(C(6)H(7)N)(2)], is a lithium dimesitylboroxide dimer in which the lithium cation is also coordinated by one mol­ecule of 2-methyl­pyridine. At the core of the structure is an Li(2)O(2) four-membered ring. The structure is centrosymmetric with an inversion centre midway between two Li atoms. Inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions and π–π inter­actions between the 2-methyl­pyridine rings exist [centroid–centroid distance = 3.6312 (16) Å].
