The ruthenocenylmethylium cation: Isolation and structures of eta(5)-cyclopentadienyl-eta(6)-fulvene-ruthenium(II) salts

Salts of the ruthenocenylmethylium cation, 1+, can be synthesized from the reaction of ruthenocenylmethanol with either Brønsted or Lewis acids. The X-ray crystal structures of the tetrakis{3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl}borate and trifluoromethanesulfonate salts of 1+ reveal that the methylium carb...
