Abstract
Cadmium bis(tetrahydroborate) has been prepared from dimethyl cadmium and H3B · THF in tetrahydrofuran. Low temperature 113Cd NMR spectra recorded for THF, monoglyme and diglyme solutions show a septet with 1J(113Cd1H) = 273 Hz. This proves that the BH4⁻ groups are bound to the metal centre via triple hydride bridges. Reaction of Cd(BH4)2 with LiBH4 yields LiCd(BH4)3 quantitatively in diglyme solution.
