106coordination of Cr here is 12
the structure is similar to that of ferrocene
so 12/2 = 6
The co-ordination number of Cr in [Cr(Ï€6-C6H6)2 ] is x. Then x/2 will be ?

look at structure... coordination no 12
@avik.. then how can u say that coord no. of Fe in ferrocene is 10 (although ive not seen u say taht [3])
29Î 6 means 6 hepticity..i.e the metal is attached to 6 carbon atoms...
and since the formula is
[Cr(Ï€6-C6H6)2 ] so that means the metal is attached to 12 carbon atoms..coordination no. 12 ..
