  • Abstract
    Reaction of TaCl5 with neat tmhdH (2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5-dione) (in the absence of solvent) yields the ionic compound [Ta(tmhd)4] [TaCl6]. This complex contains the eight coordinate Ta(V) cation, [Ta(tmhd)4]+, accompanied by the hexachlorotantalate anion, [TaCl6]−. This is the first complex of tantalum in the +5 oxidation state containing four chelating diketonate anions to be characterised using X-ray crystallography.
