Complexes [(η8-C8H8)LnCl(OC4H8)2]2, (Ln = Pr(1), Nd(2)) both crystallize in monoclinic space group P21/n with cell dimensions for 1: a = 11. 860(3), b=12. 697(3), c=12. 161(2)(?), β=111. 88(2)°, V= 1699. 50(69) (?)3, Dc=1. 66gcm-3,Z==2 (4 monomers), μc=30. 2cm-1, F (000) = 848, the final R = 0. 031, Rw = 0. 032 for 2303 independent reflections with I≥ 3σ(I) ; and for 2: a=11. 834(4), b = 12. 666(5), c=12. 166(3)(?), β=111. 73(2)°, V= 1694. 03 (99)(?)3, Dc= 1. 68g. cm-3, Z = 2 (4 monomers), μc=32. 3cm-1, F(000) = 852, R=Rw = 0. 035 for 3487 independent reflections with I≥3σ(I). In each complex, there are two Ln atoms in a dimeric unit which are bridged asymmetrically by two chloride ions with Ln - Cl bond lengths of 2. 847(2) and 2. 924(2)(?) for 1, or 2. 836(1) and 2. 919(2)(?) for 2. The cyclooctatetraene COT dianion ring is planar with eightfold molecular symmetry and an average C -C bond length of 1. 392(?). It is symmetrically coordinated to the Ln atom with an average Ln - C distance
