Type 10 Lewis Acid/Base Complexation Chemistry
Ionic Salts

Bonding:	Onium ion/complex anion complexes are charge-controlled ionic salts. In polar solvents these species dissociate to give independently solvated ions which show minimal ion-pairing.
Charge:	The charge on a Type 10 complex (salt) is always neutral.
Chemistry:	Trimethyl and triethyl oxonium ions are powerful alkylating agents (ie they act as methyl cation and ethyl cation donor complexes) which require non-nucleophilic complex anion counter ions such as [BF₄]^–, [SbF₆]^– or [PF₆]^–.
Congeneric Series:	Few series of much interest.
