Several borollide complexes and cluster complexes have been prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. These include borollide-tantalum complexes <1995JA2671, 1995POL93, 1996JA10317,... 

Many carbonyl and carbonyl metallate complexes of the second and third row, in low oxidation states, are basic in nature and, for this reason, adequate intermediates for the formation of metal— metal bonds of a donor-acceptor nature. Furthermore, the structural similarity and isolobal relationship between the proton and group 11 cations has lead to the synthesis of a high number of cluster complexes with silver—metal bonds.1534"1535 Thus, silver(I) binds to ruthenium,15 1556 osmium,1557-1560 rhodium,1561,1562 iron,1563-1572 cobalt,1573 chromium, molybdenum, or tungsten,1574-1576 rhe-nium, niobium or tantalum, or nickel. Some examples are shown in Figure 17. 

The fourth step is the preparation of isomorphous crystals of heavy metal-containing derivatives. The heavy metal may be allowed to react with the protein before crystallization or may be diffused into preformed crystals. A variety of both cationic and anionic metal complexes, even large Ta6Br122+ tantalum clusters, have been used 405 Two or more different heavy metal derivatives are often required for calculation of the phases. The heavy metal atoms must be present at only a very small number of locations in the unit cell.

We were quite optimistic in the beginning as the second reduction process corresponds to the formation of a black deposit which was potentially the first electrochemical route to make thick tantalum layers. After having washed off all ionic liquid from the sample we were already a bit sceptical as the deposit was quite brittle and did not look metallic. The SEM pictures and the EDX analysis supported our scepticism and the elemental analysis showed an elemental Ta/Cl ratio of about 1/2. Thus, overall we have deposited a low oxidation state tantalum choride. Despite the initial disappointment we were still eager to obtain the metal and found some old literature from Cotton [122], in which he described subvalent clusters of molybdenum, tungsten and tantalum halides. In the case of tantalum the well-defined Ta6Cli22+ complex was described with an average oxidation number of 2.33 and thus with a Ta/Cl molar ratio very close to 1/2. Such clusters are depicted in Figure 4.15.
