Lewis acid behavior of ReO{sub 2}F{sub 3}: Synthesis of (ReO{sub 2}F{sub 3}){sub {infinity}}, ReO{sub 2}F{sub 4}{sup {minus}}, Re{sub 2}O{sub 4}F{sub 7}{sup {minus}}, Re{sub 3}O{sub 6}F{sub 10}{sup {minus}}, and ReO{sub 2}F{sub 3}(CH{sub 3}CN) ...
More in particular we were interested in ascertaining any possible directional behaviour22 of this interaction. We limited our inquiries to uncoordinated nitrate anions to simplify our analysis. Also, if uncoordinated nitrate can act as Lewis acid, it is likely that coordinated nitrate will do so ...
