title: Synthesis and structure of a ferrocenylboron dication.
abstract: Treatment of the borane Br 2BFc (Fc = ferrocenyl) with the Lewis base 4-methylpyridine and Na[BAr (f) 4] [Ar (f) = 3,5-(CF 3) 2C 6H 3] afforded the boron dication [FcB(NC 5H 4-4-Me) 3][BAr (f) 4] 2. This compound is a rare example of a structurally characterized boron dication.
