The reaction of 1-chloro-2-(trimethylsilyl)-1-boracyclohexa-2,5-diene with [(n)Bu(4)N]C≡N provides the 1-borabenzonitrile salt [(n)Bu(4)N][C(5)H(5)BC≡N] which in turn reacts with [Ru(4)(μ-Cl)(4)(η-C(5)Me(5))(4)] to afford the sandwich complex [Ru(η(6)-C(5)H(5)BC≡N)(η-C(5)Me(5))]. The bonding of 1-borabenzonitrile is discussed with recourse to crystallographic data for [(n)Bu(4)N][C(5)H(5)BC≡N] and [Ru(η(6)-C(5)H(5)BC≡N)(η-C(5)Me(5))].
