[Cs(Toluol)3(FIn{N(SiMe3)2}3)], ein Fluoroindat mit gestreckter Cs–F–In-Achse

[Cs(toluene)₃(FIn{N(SiMe₃)₂}₃)], a Fluoroindate with Rectified Cs–F–In Axis The metalate [Cs(FIn{N(SiMe₃)₂}₃)] has been prepared by the reaction of In[N(SiMe₃)₂]₃ with CsF in THF: The title compound 1 can be obtained by recrystallization from toluene as colorless airsensitive needles. 1 has been characterized by NMR-, IR-, and MS-techniques as well as by an X-ray structure determination. The result of the structure analysis shows an prolated molecule with an almost linear Cs–F–In axis [174.7(1)°]. The Cs⁺ center is surrounded by the indate ion and three toluene molecules in a distorted tetrahedral fashion.
