Abstract: AlCl3 which was activated by heating with aluminum powder reacts with RECl3 in benzene solution giving two new neutral arene complexes, RE(C6H6)(AlCl4)3C6H6(RE = La, Nd).The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectra measurement. The molecular structure of necdium containing complex has been determined. It's isomorphous and isostructural with Sm(C6H6)(AlCl4)3C6H6. The Nd-C and Nd-Cl bond lengths are respectively longer than Sm-C and Sm-Cl bond lengths in corresponding Sm-containingcomplex
