Abstract:

The reaction of NaB5H8- with nickelocene and sodium amalgam in tetrahydrofuran at ambient temperature yielded the title compounds, which were isolated as crystalline solids and characterized from their B11 and H FT NMR and mass spectra and an X-ray structure determination of the Ni4B4 cluster.
