Abstract
An oxychloroniobium(IV) complex was isolated for the first time by zin c reduction of NbCl5 in concentrated HCl solution. The product, an ext remely moisture- and air-sensitive, intense blue solid was assigned a dimeric structure (H3O)2[Nb2O2Cl6] based on elemental analysis, i.r. a nd u.v.-vis spectroscopy as well as magnetic and conductometric measur ements.
