%X The synthesis and structural characterization of the 1:1 adduct of sodium(I) iodide and N,N,N&#8242;,N&#8243;,N&#8243;- pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (pmdeta), a novel coordination complex of sodium(I), is recorded. Single-crystal X-ray structure determination shows the compound to be a µ,µ&#8242;- diiodo-bridged dimer, with the tridentate base making up the five-coordinate environment of sodium: [( pmdeta )NaI2Na( pmdeta )]. Crystals are triclinic, P1, a 10.113(2),b 9.470(2), c 8.793(4) Å , &#945; 114.48(2), &#946; 92.09(2), &#947; 96-65(1)&#176;, Z= 1 dimer ; R was 0.037 for 1837 'observed' reflections.
