It has been shown that the interaction of bis(cyclopentadienyl)hydridorhenium (Cp/sub 2/ReH, where Cp = eta/sup 5 -/C/sub 5/H/sub 5/) with the halides of zinc, cadmium, beryllium, and magnesium in diethyl ether results in the formation of complex compounds with the general formula Cp/sub 2/ReH MHal/sub 2/. The replacement of ether by tetrahydrofuran in the case of zinc derivatives gives monosolvates with the formula Cp/sub 2/ReH x ZnHal/sub 2/ x THF (Hal = Br, I). On the basis of data from IR and PMR spectroscopy it has been concluded that the bonding of the metal-containing fragments in these complexes is realized either as a result of an Re :..-->.. M donor-acceptor interaction (the complexes with ZnHal/sub 2/ and CdI/sub 2/) or as a result of the formation of a mixed bond (the complexes with BeCl/sub 2/ and MgHal/sub 2/).
