124. We want to emphasize here the reservations one must have in interpreting experimental data (the differences in the bond length described in the solid-state structure are approximately 0.01 Å) obtained from X-ray crystal structure analyses of organometallic compounds. In an important study by G. Orpen and co-worker the chemical limitation on the reliability of results obtained from X-ray crystal data was demonstrated. These authors suggest an inherent standard deviation in metal-ligand bond lengths (due to packing, not the accuracy of crystallographic structure refinement) that usually lies between 0.01 and 0.02 Å: Martín, A.; Orpen, A.
