The marriage of fire and water: The strongly oxidizing trinitromethyl and strongly reducing BH3 groups were successfully combined for the first time in the novel [BH3 C(NO2 )3 ](-) ion. The stability at room temperature of the new (trinitromethyl)borate is in sharp contrast to the behavior of [BCl3 C(NO2 )3 ](-) , which already decomposes at -20 °C.
