Synthesis,Properties, and Application of Tetrakis(pentafluoroethyl)gallate, [Ga(C2F5)4]−

Weakly coordinating anions (WCAs) are important for academic reasons as well as for technical applications. Tetrakis(pentafluoroethyl)gallate, [Ga(C₂F₅)₄]^?, a new WCA, is accessible by treatment of [GaCl₃(dmap)] (dmap=4‐dimethylaminopyridine) with LiC₂F₅. The anion [Ga(C₂F₅)₄]^? proved to be reluctant towards deterioration by aqueous hydrochloric acid or lithium hydroxide. Various salts of [Ga(C₂F₅)₄]^? were synthesized with cations such as [PPh₄]⁺, [CPh₃]⁺, [(O₂H₅)₂(OH₂)₂]²⁺, and [Li(dec)₂]⁺ (dec=diethyl carbonate). Thermolysis of [(O₂H₅)₂(OH₂)₂][Ga(C₂F₅)₄]₂ gives rise to a dihydrate of tris(pentafluoroethyl)gallane, [Ga(C₂F₅)₃(OH₂)₂]. All products were characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, X‐ray diffraction, and elemental analysis. Furthermore, an outlook for the application of [Li(dec)₂][Ga(C₂F₅)₄] as a conducting salt in lithium‐ion batteries is presented.

In a heterogeneous reaction with CsF in MeCN the [(C₆F₅)₂IF₂]⁺ cation forms the dinuclear [{(C₆F₅)₂IF₂}₂F]⁺ cation.

The structures are made up of discrete [M(SO₂)₆]²⁺ complexes, Te₆⁴⁺ clusters and octahedral [AsF₆]^? ions. In the [M(SO₂)₆]²⁺ complexes the metal ions are surrounded octahedrally by six SO₂ molecules bound via the O atoms. The Te₆⁴⁺ polycations are of trigonal prismatic shape with short Te–Te bonds within the triangular faces (270 pm) and long Te–Te bonds along the edges parallel to the pseudo C₃ axes of the prisms (312 pm). The arrangement of the ions is related to the Li₃Bi structure type. [M(SO₂)₆]²⁺ complexes and Te₆⁴⁺ polycations together form a distorted cubic closest packing with all tetrahedral and octahedral interstices filled by [AsF₆]^? ions. The analogous reaction starting from CdTe did not yield a compound containing simultaneously [Cd(SO₂)_n]²⁺ complexes and tellurium polycations but instead Te₆[AsF₆]₄ · 2 SO₂ besides [Cd(SO₂)₂][AsF₆]₂ were obtained.
