Multiple alpha-agostic interactions in a metal-methyl complex: the neutron structure of [Mo(NC6H3Pr2i-2,6)(2)Me-2]

The neutron structure of [Mo(NC6H3Pr2i)-2,6)(2)Me-2] reveals two highly distorted methyl ligands; this distortion is due to the presence of multiple C-H ... M alpha-agostic interactions.
