2,3,5-Triphenyl-2H-tetrazol-3-ium tetraphenylborate
Abstract
In the title salt, C19H15N4+·C24H20B−, the tetraphenylborate anion is in a tetrahedral geometry around the B atom [C—B—C angles of 107.10 (9)–111.79 (9)°]. In the cation, the tetrazole ring makes dihedral angles of 3.04 (7), 51.75 (7) and 51.13 (7)° with the attached phenyl rings. In the crystal, C—H...π interactions link the cations and anions into ion pairs.
