Abstract
AbstractThe reaction of the pyridine adduct of SO3 and tetra‐n‐butyl‐ammonium cyanide, [N(nBu)4][CN] at room temperature leads to the unprecedented cyanido‐sulfate anion [SO3CN]− stabilized in the salt [N(nBu)4][SO3CN]. The anion is a pseudo‐halogen congener of the well‐known fluoro‐ and chloro‐sulfates. The new anion has been studied by vibrational spectroscopy and theoretical calculations.
