Four new clathrates of the formula M(Imidazole)(2)Ni(CN)(4). 2C(6)H(12) (M is Mn, Co, Ni and Cd) have been prepared and their infrared and the Raman spectrum of Cd clathrate are reported. The spectral results suggest that these compounds belong to the Hofmann-type clathrates. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
