Abstract
Nickel(II) complexation with the closo-decaborate anion in water and acetonitrile is studied. Complexes [Ni(solv)6][B10H10] (solv = H2O (I) or CH3CN (II)) are isolated. The complexes are characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. Complex [Ni(CH3CN)5(H2O)]0.75[Ni(CH3CN)4(H2O)2]0.25[B10H10]·0.5H2O (III) is isolated from an acetonitrile–water system. The structure of complex III is solved by X-ray diffraction (XRD) (CIF file CCDС no. 2224702). A mechanism of ligand metathesis in the complexation of nickel(II) is proposed.
