A dimer (C₂H₅)₂Al(μ-C₂H₅)₂Al(C₂H₅)₂ is treated in the usual electron-deficient bridge model. Ignore all bonds within ethyl groups. Which counts are correct?

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
A, B, D
Solution:

There are two μ-ethyl groups and four terminal ethyl groups. Hence A, B, D follow directly from the supplied dimer connectivity. A bridge cannot simultaneously be counted as an extra terminal group.
