“…Most of the known structures with [SiF 6 ] 2À exhibit extensive hydrogen-bonding networks that mainly incorporate all fluorine atoms of [SiF 6 ] 2À [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]23]. The nitrogen bases used in syntheses of 1, 2, and 4 are sterically demanding due to methyl groups on the basic nitrogen atom (4) or …”
