N2  - Decaphenylchromocenium and decaphenylcobaltocenium cations &#91;M(&#x03B7;5-C5Ph5)2&#93;+, M = Cr and Co, were synthesized by oxidation of the corresponding neutral decaphenylchromocene and decaphenylcobaltocene respectively with nitrosyl tetrafluoroborate. The complexes are air-stable and were fully characterized; decaphenylchromocenium tetrafluoroborate (1) and decaphenylcobaltocenium tetrafluoroborate (2) were structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Crystals of (1) (as a water/methylene chloride solvate), C70&#183;5H50BClCrF4O0&#183;5, M 1079&#183;42, are triclinic, space group P -1 (No. 2), a 13&#183;634(5), b 17&#183;424(5), c 13&#183;298(4) &#197;, &#945; 106&#183;45(2), &#946; 101&#183;83(3), &#947; 74&#183;56(2)&#176;, Z 2. Crystals of (2) (as a water/methylene chloride solvate), C70&#183;5H50BClCoF4O0&#183;5, M 1086&#183;36, are triclinic, space group P-1 (No. 2), a 13&#183;633(2), b 17&#183;683(3), c 13&#183;255(3) &#197;, &#945; 107&#183;95(1), &#946; 102&#183;71(1), &#947; 73&#183;23(1)&#176;, Z2.
