Conclusions
-
1.
The authors have investigated the reaction of BCl3 with R4N[C(NO2)3] (R is CH3 or C2H5). In CHCl3 or liquid BCl3, one obtains unstable complexes R4N[Cl3B ←:C(NO2)3], which decompose at 20°C with evolution of tetraalkylammonium tetrachloroborates and nitrogen tetroxide.

2.
They have obtained indirect proof of the possibility of disproportionation of R4N[Cl3BC(NO2)3] to R4NBCl4 and R4N{B[C(NO2)3]4}. Attempts to synthesize R4N{B[C(NO2)3]4} and R4N{Al[C(NO2)3]4} by replacing Cl by C(NO2)3 in R4NBCl4 and R4NAlCl4 led to formation of unstable products, decomposing spontaneously at −30 and −10°C, respectively.
