Abstract

Two new 19-vertex metallaboranes, [B₁₈H₂₀Ni(η⁵- C₅H₅)][N(CH₃)₄] and [B₁₈H₁₉(2-THF)Ni(η⁵- C₅H₅)], were isolated from the reaction of anti-B₁₈H₂₂ with nickelocene, [Ni(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂], in high yields. The complexes were characterized by multinuclear NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹B), IR and UV-vis spectroscopy. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses of these new complexes confirmed their structures as 19-vertex conjuncto-metallaborane clusters.
