In contrast to alkali metal cyclopentadienides, ] cyclopentadienide (Bu<sub>4</sub>N<sup>+</sup>C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>5</sub><sup>−</sup>) was found to be supported entirely by ionic bonding and its structure is representative of the structure of the cyclopentadienide anion (C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>5</sub><sup>−</sup>, Cp<sup>−</sup>) in the solid state. However, the anion deviates somewhat from a planar, regular pentagon, with C–C bond lengths ranging from 138.0 -140.1 pm and C–C–C bond angles ranging from 107.5-108.8°.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Reetz|first1=Manfred T.|last2=Hütte|first2=Stephan|last3=Goddard|first3=Richard|date=1995-03-01|title=Tetrabutylammonium Salts of 2-Nitropropane, Cyclopentadiene and 9-Ethylfluorene: Crystal Structures and Use in Anionic Polymerization|journal=Zeitschrift für Naturforschung B|language=en|volume=50|issue=3|pages=415–422|doi=10.1515/znb-1995-0316|s2cid=45791403 |issn=1865-7117|doi-access=free}}</ref>
