title: A single-bonded cationic terminal borylene complex.
abstract: The cationic terminal borylene complex [(eta5-C5H5)(CO)2FeB(eta5-C5Me5)][AlCl4] has been isolated from the reaction of [(eta5-C5H5)(CO)2FeB(Cl)(eta1-C5Me5)] with AlCl3 and on the basis of X-ray crystallographic data, spectroscopic data and a DFT calculation it is concluded that the B-->Fe bond order is one.
