The preparation and structure of (SeCl2)2N+AsF6–·MeCN containing the first ternary selenium, nitrogen, chlorine cation
Abstract
The Cl2Se–N–SeCl2+ cation which represents the first example of a ternary Se, N, Cl species has been prepared by the reaction of SeCl3+AsF6– and N(SiMe3)3; the crystal structure of the AsF6– salt has been determined by a low-temperature single crystal X-ray diffraction study.
