Abstract
By reaction of conjuncto-[B6H6-B6H6](2-) in alkaline solution with exc ess bromine the heptabromo-closo-heptaborate, [B7Br7](2-) is formed. T he crystal structure of [(C5H5N)(2)CH2][B7Br7] has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (monoclinic, space group P2( 1)/a with a = 15.0843(14), b = 9.8882(14), c = 17.057(2) Angstrom, bet a = 114.039 degrees(7)). In accordance with the D-5h point symmetry th e anion shows two singlets at -23.3 and -0.1 ppm with the intensity ra tio 2:5 in its B-11 NMR spectrum.
