1:1 molar reaction of WCl6 with tribenzylamine (tba),
in dichloromethane, selectively afforded the iminium salt [(PhCH2)2NCHPh][WCl6], 1, and the ammonium one [tbaH][WCl6], 2, in
equimolar amounts. The products were fully characterized by means
of spectroscopic methods, analytical methods, and X-ray diffractometry.
Density functional theory calculations were carried out with the aim
of comprehending the mechanistic aspects.
