Divalent 4f element chemistry can now be expanded from Eu, Yb, and Sm to include Tm since a synthetic route to the first crystallographically characterizable molecular complex to Tm II has been found. The intense green title complex was isolated from the reaction of TmI 3 and Tm in dimethoxyethane. The photosensitive complex has the pentagonal‐bipyramidal structure shown on the right.
