Have you heard of Cr2Cl3 ?

Does Cr2Cl3 molecule exist?

I have heard of CrCl3 but not Cr2Cl3 & can't find it on google !

Thanks in advance

As I'm not in lab, I can't (easily, at least) check CAS, but Webelements doesn't seem to have anything that matches -

There's CrCl2, CrCl3, and CrCl4, but no Cr2Cl3 listed, and it's not something which rings a bell in my memory. I'm not an inorganic chemist, though, so my memory on this point may not be the best.
