Cadmium tetrahydroborate reacts with alkali metal alcoholates or phenolates in THF solution either with formation of addition products (1-) or by ligand exchange to produce Cd(BH4)OR.Different oligomers of the latter are formed depending on concentration.The reaction of Cd(BH4)2 with Cd(Omes)2 (mes = mesityl) leads to an equilibrium of the starting materials with Cd(BH4)(Omes) as shown by 113Cd-NMR spectroscopy.The crystal structure of MeCd(OCMe3)(BH4), proved to be a tetramer with a cubane-type Cd4O4 core. - Keywords: 11B-NMR spectroscopy / 113Cd-NMR spectroscopy / tert-Butoxy(methyl)cadmium tetramer / Organyloxy(tetrahydroborato)cadmates
