Abstract
The perfluoropinacol borate-based anion [B(O2C2(CF3)4)2]−, [FPB]–, is developed as a weakly coordinating anion for single-crystal to single-crystal organometallic solid/gas reactivity, resulting in the isolation and characterization (including periodic DFT and IGMH analysis) of the σ-alkane complex [Rh(Cy2PCH2CH2PCy2)(exo-η2η2-norbornane)][FPB]. The synthetically useful solvent-free Na+ salt, Na[FPB], and oxonium acid [H(OEt2)2][FPB] are also reported.
期刊介绍:
Organometallics is the flagship journal of organometallic chemistry and records progress in one of the most active fields of science, bridging organic and inorganic chemistry. The journal publishes Articles, Communications, Reviews, and Tutorials (instructional overviews) that depict research on the synthesis, structure, bonding, chemical reactivity, and reaction mechanisms for a variety of applications, including catalyst design and catalytic processes; main-group, transition-metal, and lanthanide and actinide metal chemistry; synthetic aspects of polymer science and materials science; and bioorganometallic chemistry.
