Abstract
Reduction of TaBr5 with Ga in the presence of KBr in a sealed borosilicate ampule at 400°, followed by aqueous Soxhlet extraction and addition of stannous bromide and hydrobromic acid to the extract, yielded Ta6Br14·8H2O in 80–84% yield. The new procedure provides a convenient, low temperature, high yield route to the synthesis of the title compound from inexpensive precursors.
