[2,2-Bis(diphenyl-phosphan-yl)propane-κP,P']tetra-carbonyl-chromium(0) dichloro-methane monosolvate.

The title compound, [Cr(C(27)H(26)P(2))(CO)(4)]·CH(2)Cl(2), was obtained by the reaction of Ph(2)PCMe(2)PPh(2) with Cr(CO)(6) in refluxing toluene by substitution of two carbonyl ligands. The CrC(4)P(2) coordination geometry at the Cr atom is distorted octa-hedral, with a P-Cr-P bite angle of 70.27 (2)°.
