Discrete cationic mono(arene) complexes of thallium(I), [Tl(Cp2Fe)](+) and [Tl(C6Me6)](+), were synthesized as [H2N{B(C6F5)(3)}(2)](-) salts. The Tl center dot center dot center dot centroid distance of 2.723 angstrom to the arene in [Tl(C6Me6)](+) is the shortest described to date. This remarkably strong arene pi-bonding is confirmed by DFT calculations, which give a Tl-C6Me6 interaction energy of 163 kJ mol(-1).
