A missing link in the chemistry of rare earth metal cluster compounds stabilized by interstitial transition metals is the new La10Co2 dimeric cluster shown on the right with its iodine environment. The most remarkable structural features of this cluster are the two edge-sharing La octahedra, each centered by a Co atom.
