117Sn) = 1931 Hz, trans 2J(119Sn-117Sn) = 13489 Hz.
2: The residue of 1 was further extracted with benzene (50 mL),
resulting in a dark red solution. Slow diffusion of hexane into this
solution yielded dark red crystals of 2 (5 mg, 1% yield).
3: A solution of [Na]2[SnB11H11] (176 mg, 0.6 mmol)in THF
(5 mL)was added to a solution of K 2PdCl6 (40 mg, 0.1 mmol)in H 2O
(2 mL), resulting in a dark red solution. The solvents were evaporated
in vacuum, and the red solid was redissolved in THF. After the
addition of [Bu3NH]Cl (44 mg, 0.2 mmol), slow diffusion of Et2O into
the red solution resulted in the formation of 3 as dark red crystals
(133 mg, 63% yield). Elemental analysis (%) for [Bu3NMe]6[Pd-

4: A solution of Na2[SnB11H11] (176 mg, 0.6 mmol)in THF (5 mL)
was added to a solution of K2PtCl6 (49 mg, 0.1 mmol)in H 2O (2 mL),
resulting in an orange solution. The solvents were evaporated in
vacuum, and the orange solid was redissolved in THF. After the
addition of [Bu3NH]Cl (44 mg, 0.2 mmol), slow diffusion of Et2O into
the orange solution resulted in the formation of 4 as orange crystals
(140 mg, 65% yield). Elemental analysis (%) for [Bu3NMe]6[Pt-

[19] An interpretation of the XANES spectrum was difficult owing to
the observed pre-edge feature in the Ni K-edge XANES
spectrum of 1 (recorded by S. Anantharaman, H. Bertagnolli)
and the lack of a comparable reference compound.
[20] See the supporting informations for details on the experimental
section, X-Ray crystal structure analyses of 1–4, the Mössbauer
spectroscopy, and the 119Sn CP/MAS NMR spectrum of 1.
