Abstract

Hofmann's benzene clathrate Ni(NH3)2Ni(CN)4·2C6H6 suspended in ammoniacal, neutral, and acidic aqueous media undergoes the replacement reactions of the guest C6H6 and the ligating NH3 molecules with molecules of water to give Ni(NH3)2Ni(CN)4·≅1H2O, Ni(H2O)2Ni(CN)4·nH2O(0<n<2), and Ni(H2O)2Ni(CN)4·4∼5H2O, respectively. The integrity of the host metal complex sheet structure is conserved with little change during the replacement reactions.
