Abstract

Tetraphenylphosphonium tetraazidoborate, [P(C6H5)4][B(N3)4], was obtained from B(N3)3 - in situ prepared from BH3 · O(C2H5)2 and HN3 - and [P(C6H5)4][N3]. Recrystallization from an acetonitrile / hexane mixture yielded colorless crystals in 60% yield. The molecular structurewas determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and the [B(N3)4]- anionwas shown to possess S4 symmetry.
