The above purification method permits separation and removal of impurities contained in Ar 4 BMgX in an efficient and simple manner. The invention also provides a tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate/ether complex, a process for preparing the same, and a process for preparing a tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate derivative (Ar 4 BZ) by using the ether complex and the compound capable of generating monovalent cationic species as starting compounds. The ether complex can be easily purified to a high purity and hence is suitable as an intermediate for the preparation of various tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate derivatives.

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to 1 ○ a purifying process of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide. The present invention also relates to 2 ○ a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·ether complex, which is useful as, for example, a co-catalyst of a metallocene catalyst (polymeric catalyst) used in a cationic complex polymerization reaction, a photopolymeric catalyst for silicone, a cationic polymerization initiator used in the polymerization of a functional polymer or monomer with photochemical activation or irradiation of electron beams, and an intermediate for producing tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate derivatives of various kinds, and to a producing process of the same; and to 3 ○ a producing process of a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative. Further, the present invention relates to 4 ○ a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative·ether complex useful as an intermediate for producing the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative and a producing process of the same, and to 5 ○ a producing process of tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND A tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative is an useful compound as, for example, a co-catalyst for promoting the activity of a metallocene catalyst (polymeric catalyst) used in a cationic complex polymerization reaction, or a photopolymeric catalyst for silicone. Also, tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide is an useful compound as an intermediate for producing the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative. Recently, the metallocene catalyst has been receiving considerable attention as a polyolefin polymeric catalyst. A producing process of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magensium bromide, which is a kind of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide, from bromopentafluorobenzene through the Grignard reaction is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247980/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247980 ). Also, in Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247981/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247981 ), a process of synthesizing tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·lithium from pentafluorobenzene using an organic lithium compound and boron halide first, and thence reacting the resulting compound with N,N-dimethylaniline·hydrochloride is disclosed as a producing process of a tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative, which is a kind of the tetrakis(flucroaryl)borate derivative. Further, a producing process of the tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative by reacting tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide with N,N-dimethylaniline·hydrochloride is disclosed in US Patent No. 5,473,036. However, Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247980/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247980 ) neither discloses nor implies the separation/removal of magnesium halide, a by-product produced with tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide, from the reaction series. If the tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate derivative is produced from tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide containing magnesium halide as impurities, and used as a co-catalyst of the metallocene catalyst, for example, the activity of the metallocene catalyst deteriorates considerably. The process disclosed in Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247980/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247980 ) is a producing process of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·magnesium bromide containing magnesium halide as impurities. Thus, tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate· magnesium bromide obtained through this process can not be used as an adequate intermediate for producing the tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative. If typical alkali treatment is applied to tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide to remove magnesium halide from tetrakis(pentaflurorphenyl) borate·magnesium bromide obtained by the process disclosed in the above publication, magnesium hydroxide is produced. Since magnesium hydroxide turns a post-treatment solution into gel, the solution can not be filtered. In other words, since magnesium halide can not be removed by the typical alkali treatment, it is difficult to separate tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·magnesium bromide obtained in the above process, or to obtain a highly-pure tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound after the treatment. Thus, there has been an increasing demand for a purifying process for separating/removing impurities, such as magnesium halide, from tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide readily and efficiently. On the other hand, the process disclosed in Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247981/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247981 ) has the following problems: (1) since the reaction series must be kept at -65°C or below, not only special equipment is required, but also the cooling cost is high; (2) the process demands an expensive organic lithium compound (t-butyl lithium), which is a dangerous compound because it may ignite when reacted with water and the like; (3) the process also demands expensive boron halide (boron trichloride), which is very difficult to handle because it is in the gaseous state and corrosive. Thus, the process disclosed in the above publication can not be readily adopted for industrial use. In the process disclosed in US Patent No. 5,473,036 magnesium hydroxide is produced as a by-product with the object product, that is, the tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative. Since magnesium hydroxide turns a post-treatment solution into gel, it is difficult to separate (isolate) the tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative from the solution. EP 0 662 478 discloses a process for the isolation of tetraphenylborate compounds, in which a solution or a suspension of these compounds is prepared in presence of magnesium hydroxide. Thus, there arises a problem that the tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative can not be produced efficiently. In other words, the conventional producing processes have a problem that an inexpensive and highly-pure tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative can not be produced efficiently. Hence, there has been an increasing demand for a process of producing an inexpensive and highly-pure tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative efficiently. Therefore, it is a first object of the present invention to provide a purifying process of separating/removing impurities, such as magnesium halide, from tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide readily and efficiently. Also, it is a second object of the present invention to provide a process of efficiently producing an inexpensive and highly-pure tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate derivative, which is useful as, for example, a co-catalyst of the metallocene catalyst or a photopolymeric catalyst for silicone. A producing process of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate, which is useful as an intermediate for producing the tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate derivatives of various kinds, has been known. For example, a process of obtaining tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·lithium by reacting pentafluorophenyl lithium, which is produced by reacting pentafluorophenyl bromide with butyl lithium at -78°C in dry pentane, with tris(pentafluorophenyl)borate at -78°C in dry pentane is disclosed in p245, J. Organometallic. Chem., 2, (1964). Also, aforementioned Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247981/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247981 ) discloses a preparing process of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·lithium used in the producing process of N,N-dimethyl anilinium·tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate from N,N-dimethylaniline· hydrochloride as follows. That is, the above publication discloses a preparing process, in which pentafluorophenyl lithium is produced initially by reacting pentafluorophenyl bromide with t-butyl lithium at -65°C in dry diethyl ether, and then tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·lithium is prepared by reacting the resulting pentafluorophenyl lithium with boron trichloride at -65°C to -55°C in dry pentane. However, the process disclosed in p245, J. Organometallic. Chem., 2, (1964) has a problem that the yield of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·lithium is low (43%). Also, since the process disclosed in aforementioned Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247981/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247981 ) has the above-explained problem, it can not be readily applied to industrial use. On the other hand, aforementioned Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247980/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247980 ) discloses a process of obtaining the tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative by reacting pentafluorophenyl magnesium bromide, which is a Grignard reagent, with a boron trifluoride·diethyl ether complex. Also, aforementioned US Patent No. 5,473,036 discloses a process of obtaining tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·magnesium bromide by reacting pentafluorophenyl magnesium bromide, which is a Grignard reagent, with a boron trifluoride·diethyl ether complex, and a process of obtaining N,N-dimethyl anilinium·tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate by reacting tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide with an aqueous solution of N,N-dimethylaniline·hydrochloride. However, in the process disclosed in Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247980/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247980 ), magnesium halide, such as magnesium bromide fluoride (MgBrF), produced as a by-product with tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide, is not separated/removed from the reaction series and remains therein as impurities. Thus, as previously mentioned, if the tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative is produced from tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·magnesium bromide containing magnesium halide as impurities and used as a co-catalyst of the metallocene catalyst, for example, the activity of the metallocene catalyst deteriorates considerably. Further, in the processes disclosed in US Patent No. 398,236 and Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 247980/1994 ( Tokukaihei No. 6-247980 ), resulting tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide is colored with a coloring component derived from the Grignard reaction. Thus, if the tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative is produced from tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·magnesium bromide obtained in either of the above processes, there arises a problem that the coloring component remains in the tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate derivative (the tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative is colored). The producing process of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl )borate derivative disclosed in US Patent No. 5,473,036 also has the following problem. That is, in the above process, a post-treatment solution is turned into gel by magnesium hydroxide produced as a by-product. Thus, it is difficult to filter the solution and isolate the tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative from the solution. Also, to isolate the tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate derivative in the above process, a crude product must be crystallized again using a chlorine solvent, such as chloroform and dichloroethane. As has been explained, since tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium bromide obtained by the conventional processes contains the by-product salts and coloring component as impurities, it can not be used as an adequate intermediate for producing the tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate derivative. Hence, there has been an increasing demand for a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative which can be used as a suitable intermediate for producing the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivatives of various kinds. It is therefore a third object of the present invention to provide a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·ether complex as a new material which can be used suitably as a co-catalyst of the metallocene catalyst, a cationic polymerization initiator, an intermediate for producing the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivatives of various kinds and the like, and a producing process of the same. Also, the conventional producing processes of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative from tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate prepared using an organic lithium compound or a Grignard reagent has a problem that an inexpensive and highly-pure tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate derivative can not be produced efficiently. It is therefore a fourth object of the present invention to provide a producing process of an inexpensive and highly-pure tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative efficiently. Also, it is a fifth object of the present invention to provide a producing process of highly-pure tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate. Further, it is a sixth object of the present invention to provide a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative·ether complex as a new material, which is useful not only as an intermediate for producing the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative, but also as a co-catalyst of the metallocene catalyst (polymeric catalyst) used in the cationic complex polymerization reaction, and a producing process of the same. Furthermore, it is a seventh object of the present invention to provide a producing process of an inexpensive tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate derivative from the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative·ether complex efficiently. To fulfill the first and second objects, the inventors of the present invention conducted an assiduous study on the purifying process of tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide and the producing process of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative. In due course, the inventors achieved the present invention when they discovered that: the impurities, such as magnesium halide, can be readily and efficiently separated/removed from tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide by treating tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide with, for example, alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid and/or alkali earth metal salts of carboxylic acid; and an inexpensive and highly-pure tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate derivative, which is useful as, for example, a co-catalyst of the metallocene catalyst or a photopolymeric catalyst for silicone, can be produced efficiently by reacting a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound obtained through the above purifying process with a compound generating monovalent cationic seeds. In other words, to fulfill the above objects, a purifying process of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide of the present invention is characterized by treating tetrakis(fluoraryl)borate·magnesium halide expressed by General Formula (1): where each of R 1 -R 10 represents a hydrogen atom, a fluorine atom, a hydrocarbon group, or an alkoxy group, provided that at least one of R 1 -R 5 represents a fluorine atom and at least one of R 6 -R 10 represents a fluorine atom, X represents a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, or an iodide atom, and n represents 2 or 3, with: 1 ○ alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid and/or alkali earth metal salts of carboxylic acid; 2 ○ an acid; 3 ○ an acid followed by alkali metal hydroxide and/or alkali earth metal hydroxide; or 4 ○ an acid followed by alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid and/or alkali earth metal salts of carboxylic acid. Said alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid are at least one kind of metal salts selected from a group consisting of alkali metal salts of saturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, mono- or dialkali metal salts of saturated aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, alkali metal salts of unsaturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, mono- or dialkali metal salts of unsaturated aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, alkali metal salts of aromatic monocarboxylic acid, and mono- or dialkali metal salts of aromatic dicarboxylic acid. Said alkali earth metal salts of carboxylic acid are at least one kind of metal salts selected from a group consisting of alkali earth metal salts of saturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, alkali earth metal salts of saturated aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, alkali earth metal of unsaturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, alkali earth metal salts of unsaturated aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, alkali earth metal salts of aromatic monocarboxylic acid, and alkali earth metal salts of aromatic dicarboxylic acid. Said acid is at least one kind of acid selected from a group consisting of hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, carbonic acid, formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid and succinic acid. According to the above process, magnesium halide, such as magnesium bromide fluoride, produced as a by-product during the producing process of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide through the Grignard reaction can be turned into water-soluble or water-insoluble magnesium salts (that is, in the state of salts other than magnesium hydroxide). Thus, the salts can be readily and efficiently separated/removed from tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide through oil-water separation, filtration or the like. In short, the impurities, such as magnesium halide, can be readily and efficiently separated/removed from tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide, preferably tetrakis(fluorophenyl)borate magnesium bromides. When tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide is treated with the purifying process 1 ○, 3 ○ or 4 ○, alkali metal salts and/or alkali earth metal salts of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate can be obtained. When tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide is treated with the purifying process 2 ○, hydride of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate can be obtained. A producing process of a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative of the present invention relates to a producing process of a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative expressed by General Formula (2): where each of R 1 -R 10 represents a hydrogen atom, a fluorine atom, a hydrocarbon group, or an alkoxy group, provided that at least one of R 1 -R 5 represents a fluorine atom and at least one of R 6 -R 10 represents a fluorine atom, Z + represents a monovalent cation seed, and n represents 2 or 3, and is characterized by reacting a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound obtained by any of the purifying processes 1 ○-4 ○ with a compound generating monovalent cation seeds. According to the above process, an inexpensive tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative can be produced efficiently from the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound obtained through any of the above purifying processes, namely, alkali metal salts, alkali earth metal salts, and hydrides of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate. The resulting tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative does not contain the impurities, such as magnesium halide, and therefore is so pure that it can be used suitably as, for example, a co-catalyst of the metallocene catalyst used in the cationic complex polymerization reaction or photopolymeric catalyst for silicone. DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The purifying process of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide of the present invention expressed by General Formula (1) above is a process of applying the treatment with: 1 ○ alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid and/or alkali earth metal salts of carboxylic acid; 2 ○ an acid; 3 ○ an acid followed by alkali metal hydroxide and/or alkali earth metal hydroxide; or 4 ○ an acid followed by alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid and/or alkali earth metal salts of carboxylic acid. Also, the producing process of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative of the present invention expressed by General Formula (2) above is a process of reacting a tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound obtained by any of the purifying processes 1 ○-4 ○ with a compound generating monovalent cation seeds. Here, the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound means alkali salts, alkali earth metal salts, and hydrides of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate. The tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide and tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound are suitable as an intermediate of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative. Tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide treated in the present invention is a compound, in which each of substituents denoted as R 1 -R 10 is a hydrogen atom, a fluorine atom, a hydrocarbon group, or an alkoxy group, provided that at least one of R 1 -R 5 is a fluorine atom and at least one of R 6 -R 10 is a fluorine atom, a substituent denoted as X is a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, or an iodide atom, and n represents 2 or 3. Examples of the hydrocarbon group include: aryl group, a straight-chain, branched-chain, or cyclic alkyl group having up to 12 carbon atoms, a straight-chain, branched-chain, or cyclic alkenyl group having 2-12 carbon atoms, etc. The hydrocarbon group may further include a functional group that remains inactive to the treatment carried out and reactions taking place in the present invention. Examples of the functional group include: a methoxy group, a methylthio group, an N,N-dimethylamino group, an o-anise group, a p-anise group, a trimethylsilyl group, a dimethyl-t-butyl silyloxy group, a trifluoromethyl group, etc. The alkoxy group is expressed by General Formula (A) : -OR a where R a represents a hydrocarbon group. Examples of the hydrocarbon group denoted as R a in the formula are: an aryl group, a straight-chain, branched-chain, or cyclic alkyl group having up to 12 carbon atoms, a straight-chain, branched-chain, or cyclic alkenyl group having 2-12 carbon atoms.

A producing process of tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate-magnesium halide is not especially limited. Tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide can be readily obtained by, for example: i) a process of reacting fluoroaryl magnesium halide as a Grignard reagent with boron halide in the mole ratio of 4:1; ii) a process of reacting fluoroaryl magnesium halide with tris(fluoroaryl)borane in the mole ratio of 1:1; etc. The reaction conditions of the Grignard reaction in these processes are not especially limited.

Note that, however, in the present invention, the alkali earth metal salts of carboxylic acid do not include magnesium salts of carboxylic acid. One member or a mixture of two or more members selected from these examples of alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid and alkali earth metal salts of carboxylic acid (hereinafter, collectively referred to as carboxylate) can be used effectively. Of all the example carboxylates, lithium carbonate, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium acetate, sodium succinate dibasic, and barium acetate are more preferable than the others. An amount of used carboxylate is not especially limited, but at least one equivalent of the carboxylate to tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide must be used. When a mixture of the alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid and alkali earth metal salts of carboxylic acid is used, a mixing ratio of these metal salts is not especially limited. Examples of the acid used in the purifying process 2 ○, 3 ○, or 4 ○ include, but not limited to: inorganic acids, such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, and carbonic acid; organic acids, such as formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, and succinic acid; etc. One member or a mixture of two or more members selected from these example acids can be used effectively. Of all these example acids, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, formic acid, acetic acid, succinic acid, and malonic acid are more preferable than the others. An amount of used acid is not especially limited, but at least one equivalent of the acid to magnesium used (charged to the reaction series) when producing tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide must be used. In case that a mixture of the inorganic acid and organic acid is used, a mixing ratio of these acids is not especially limited. Examples of alkali metal hydroxide used in the purifying process 3 ○ of the present invention include lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, etc. Examples of alkali earth metal hydroxide used in the purifying process 3 ○ of the present invention include calcium hydroxide, barium hydroxide, etc. Note that, however, in the present invention, alkali earth metal hydroxide does not include magnesium hydroxide. One member or a mixture of two or more members selected from these example alkali metal hydroxides and alkali earth metal hydroxides (hereinafter, collectively referred to as hydroxide) can be used effectively. An amount of used hydroxide is not especially limited, but at least one equivalent of the hydroxide to tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide must be used. In case that a mixture of alkali metal hydroxide and alkali earth metal hydroxide is used, a mixing ratio of these hydroxides is not especially limited. In case that tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide is treated with the carboxylate (purifying process 1 ○), tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide is mixed with the carboxylate with stirring. In case that tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide is treated with the acid (purifying process 2 ○), tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide is mixed with the acid with stirring. In case that tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide is treated with the acid followed by the hydroxide (purifying process 3 ○), after the acid is separated/removed, tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide is mixed with the hydroxide with stirring. In case that tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide is treated with the acid followed by the carboxylate (purifying process 4 ○), after the acid is separated/removed, tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide is mixed with the carboxylate with stirring. A method of mixing a solution of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide with the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide is not especially limited. The carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide may be mixed with a solution of tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide directly (in the form of a solid or a liquid), or optionally, in the form of a solution. Examples of preferable solvents when using a solution of the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide include, but not limited to: water; ether solvents, such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, dibutyl ether, and anisole; aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents, such as pentane, hexane, and heptane; alicyclic hydrocarbon solvents, such as cyclopentane and cyclohexane; ester solvents, such as methyl acetate and ethyl acetate; aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, such as benzene and toluene; alcohol solvents, such as methyl alcohol and ethyl alcohol; ketone solvents, such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone; etc. One member or a mixture of two or more members selected from these example solvents can be used effectively. A method of mixing tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magensium halide with the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide, and a mixing order are not especially limited. For example, the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide may be mixed a solution of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide, or the solution of tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magensium halide may be mixed with the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide. A temperature and a time when mixing the solution of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide with the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide with stirring, that is, the treatment conditions, are not especially limited. According to the purifying processes 1 ○-4 ○ of the present invention, the solution of tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magensium halide is mixed with the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide, after which the reaction solution is stirred for a certain time at room temperature, whereby tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide is readily treated. A method of separating/removing the acid when treating tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide with the acid followed by the hydroxide or carboxylate is not especially limited. For example, the acid can be readily separated from a solution of the tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate compound by a simple manipulation, such as liquid separation (oil-water separation). After the treatment, the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound is obtained in the form of a solution dissolved into the solvent. In case that the solution of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound contains the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide, the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide can be removed optionally by washing or the like. In case that the carboxylate, acid, or hydroxide, or the solution thereof contains the tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate compound, the tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate compound can be collected optionally by extraction or the like. Further, in case that the solution of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound contains water, water can be removed (dried out) optionally by adding a drying agent, such as magnesium sulfate anhydride. A tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound expressed by General Formula (3): where each of R 1 -R 10 represents a hydrogen atom, a fluorine atom, a hydrocarbon group, or an alkoxy group, provided that at least one of R 1 -R 5 represents a fluorine atom and at least one of R 6 -R 10 represents a fluorine atom, Ma represents a hydrogen atom, alkali metal, or alkali earth metal, n represents 2 or 3, and m represents 1 when Ma represents a hydrogen atom or alkali metal, or 2 when Ma represents alkali earth metal, can be obtained by treating tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide through any of the purifying processes 1 ○-4 ○. In other words, when tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide is treated with the carboxylate or hydroxide, that is, through the purifying process 1 ○, 3 ○ or 4 ○, tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate expressed by General Formula (3) above, in which Ma represents alkali metal or alkali earth metal, can be obtained. Examples of alkali metal are lithium, sodium, potassium, etc. Examples of alkali earth metal are calcium, barium, etc. On the other hand, when tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide is treated with the acid, that is, through the purifying process 2 ○, tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate expressed by General Formula (3) above, in which Ma represents a hydrogen atom, can be obtained. Of all the purifying processes 1 ○-4 ○ of the present invention, the optimum purifying process can be selected depending on the kinds of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)b orate·magensium halide, solvents and the like, so that the resulting tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound is in the desired form (alkali metal salts, alkali earth metal salts, or hydride), or the post-treatment separatory manipulation, such as liquid separation, can be carried out more readily. According to any purifying process of the present invention, for example, magnesium halide, which is produced as a by-product while tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide is produced through the Grignard reaction, can be converted to either water-soluble or water-insoluble magnesium salts (that is, salts other magnesium hydroxide). Thus, the salts contained in tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide can be separated/removed from the solution of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound readily and efficiently through the manipulation, such as liquid separation and filtration. In short, the impurities, such as magnesium halide, can be separated/removed from tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide readily and efficiently. Here, a method of removing/separating the impurities from the solution of the tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate compound is not especially limited. When tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide does not contain the impurities, such as magnesium halide, it is preferable to obtain the hydride, alkali metal salts, or alkali earth metal salts of tetrakis(fluroraryl)borate through the above treatment. Because, by applying the above treatment, the reaction with a compound generating monovalent cation seeds can proceed faster and at higher yield. As has been explained, the purifying processes of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide of the present invention are: 1 ○ a process of treating tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide with carboxylate; 2 ○ a process of treating tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide with an acid; 3 ○ a process of treating tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide with an acid followed by the hydroxide; and 4 ○ a process of treating tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magnesium halide with an acid followed by the carboxylate. Consequently, it has become possible to provide a purifying process of separating/removing the impurities, such as magnesium halide, from tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate·magensium halide readily and efficiently. Also, for example, the reaction of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate compound obtained by the above purifying process with a compound generating monovalent cation seeds can proceed faster at higher yield. The tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate compound can be isolated/purified in the form of crystals by removing (distilling out) the solvent optionally. The compound generating monovalent cation seeds referred herein (hereinafter, referred to as cation seed generating compound) can be any compound which generates monovalent cation seeds in a reaction solvent described below and is reactive with either 1 ○ the tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate compound or 2 ○ the tetrakis (fluoroaryl) borate·ether complex or tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate (the compound 2 ○ will be described below). Examples of the monovalent cation seeds generated by the cation seed generating compound include, but not limited to: ammonium cations, such as n-butyl ammonium, dimethyl ammonium, trimethyl ammonium, triethyl ammonium, triisopropyl ammonium, tri-n-butyl ammonium, tetramethyl ammonium, tetraethyl ammonium, and tetra-n-butyl ammonium; anilinium cations, such as anilinium, N-methyl anilinium, N,N-dimethyl anilinium, N,N-diethyl anilinium, N,N-diphenyl anilinium, and N,N,N-trimethyl anilinium; pyridinium cations, such as pyridinium, N-methyl pyridinium, and N-benzyl pyridinium; quinolinium cations, such as quinolinium and isoquinolinium; phosphonium cations, such as dimethylphenyl phosphonium, triphenyl phosphonium, tetraethyl phosphonium, and tetraphenyl phosphonium; sulfonium cations, such as trimethyl sulfonium and triphenyl sulfonium; iodonium cations, such as diphenyl iodonium and di-4-methoxy phenyl iodonium; carbenium cations, such as triphenyl carbenium and tri-4-methoxyphenyl carbenium; monovalent cations of metals other than alkali metal and alkali earth metal; etc. Of all these examples, trialkyl ammonium cation, tetraalkyl ammonium cation, dialkyl anlinium cation, alkylpyridinium cation, tetraalkyl phosphonium cation, tetraaryl phosphonium cation, and diaryl iodonium cation are more preferable than the others. Here, anion seeds that form a pair with the monovalent cation seeds are not especially limited. Examples of the cation seed generating compound include: quaternary ammonium compounds, such as tri-n-butylamine·hydrochloride, N,N-dimethylaniline· hydrochloride, N,N-dimethylaniline·sulfate, and tetramethyl ammonium chloride; nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compounds, such as pyridine·hydrochloride, quinoline·hydrochloride, N-methyl pyridine iodide, and N-methyl quinoline iodide; quaternary phosphonium compounds, such as n-butylphosphonium bromide and tetraphenyl phosphonium bromide; sulfonium compounds, such as trimethyl sulfonium iodide; iodinium compounds, such as diphenyl iodinium chloride; carbenium compounds, such as trityl chloride; etc. For example, N,N-dimethylaniline·hydrochloride generates N,N-dimethyl anilinium cations as the monovalent cation seeds. In this case, the anion seeds are chlorine ions. An amount of used cation seed generating compound is not especially limited, but at least 0.8 equivalent of cation seed generating compound to the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound, a tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate·ether complex described below, or tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate must be used. The producing process of the tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate derivative of the present invention uses a reaction solvent. Examples of the reaction solvent include, but not limited to: water; ether solvents, such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, dibutyl ether, and anisole; aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents, such as pentane, hexane, and heptane; alicyclic hydrocarbon solvents, such as cyclopentane and cyclohexane; ester solvents, such as methyl acetate and ethyl acetate; aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, such as benzene and toluene; alcohol solvents, such as methyl alcohol and ethyl alcohol; ketone solvents, such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone; etc. One member or a mixture of two or more members selected from these example reaction solvents can be used effectively. In case that the solution of the tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate compound obtained by the above treatment is used for the reaction, a solvent, in which the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound is dissolved, can be used as the reaction solvent (either entirely or partially). Thus, in the producing process of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative of the present invention, after tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magensium halide is treated, the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative can be produced from the resulting solution of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound without isolating the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound from the solution. Example mixing methods of the tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate compound with the cation seed generating compound include, but not limited to: a method of mixing the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound and cation seed generating compound with the reaction solvent; a method of mixing the cation seed generating compound or a solution thereof with a solution of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound; a method of mixing the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound or a solution thereof with a solution of the cation seed generating compound; etc. In case that the solution of the cation seed generating compound is mixed with the solution of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound, and the solution of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound is mixed with the solution of the cation seed generating compound, it is preferable to drop the former to the latter. A temperature and a time in the reaction of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound with the cation seed generating compound, that is, the reaction conditions, are not especially limited. In the producing process of the present invention, the reaction can proceed readily by stirring a reaction liquid, prepared by dissolving the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound and the cation seed generating compound into the reaction solvent, for a certain time at room temperature. Thus, the object product, that is, the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative, can be readily obtained. For example, when the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound is the alkali metal salts or alkali earth metal salts of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate and the cation seed generating compound is N,N-dimethylaniline·hydrochloride, the object product, that is, N,N-dimethyl anilinium· tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate can be obtained by reacting the above two compounds with each other, while alkali metal chloride, such as sodium chloride, or alkali earth metal chloride, such as calcium chloride, is produced as a by-product. The alkali metal chloride or alkali earth metal chloride can be readily separated/removed from the solution of N,N-dimethyl anilinium·tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate through the manipulation, such as liquid separation, filtration, and washing. For example, when the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound is hydride of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate and the cation seed generating compound is N,N-dimethylaniline· hydrochloride, the object product, that is, N,N-dimethyl anilinium·tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate can be obtained by reacting the above two compounds with each other, while hydrochloric acid is produced as a by-product. The hydrochloric acid can be readily separated/removed from N,N-dimethyl anilinium·tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate through the manipulation, such as liquid separation and washing. In short, the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative can be readily isolated/purified as crystals through an optional simple manipulation, such as removal (distillation) of the reaction solvent, after a simple manipulation, such as liquid separation and filtration. As has been explained, the producing process of the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative of the present invention is a process of reacting the tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate compound obtained by any of the above purifying processes with the cation seed generating compound. According to the above process, the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative can be produced efficiently at low costs from the tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate compound, namely, alkali metal salts, alkali earth metal salts, and hydride of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate. Since the resulting derivative does not contain the impurities, such as magnesium halide, the derivative is so pure that it can be suitably used as a co-catalyst of the metallocene catalyst used in the cationic complex polymerization reaction or a photopolymeric catalyst for silicone. A method of mixing tetrakis(fluoraryl)borate with the cation seed generating compound is not especially limited, and examples of which are: a method of mixing tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate and the cation seed generating compound with the reaction solvent; a method of mixing the cation seed generating compound or a solution thereof with a solution of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate; a method of mixing tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate or a solution thereof with a solution of the cation seed generating compound; etc. In case that the solution of the cation seed generating compound is mixed with the solution of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate, and the solution of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate is mixed with the solution of the cation seed generating compound, it is preferable to drop the former to the latter. A reaction temperature and a reaction time in the reaction of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate and the cation seed generating compound, that is, the reaction conditions, are not especially limited. In the producing process of the present invention, the reaction is allowed to readily proceed by stirring a reaction liquid, prepared by dissolving tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate and the cation seed generating compound into the reaction solvent, for a certain time at room temperature. Consequently, the object product, that is, the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative, can be readily obtained. For example, when the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate is alkali metal salts or alkali earth metal salts of tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate, and the cation seed generating compound is N,N-dimethylaniline·hydrochloride, the object product, that is, N,N-dimethyl anilinium· tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate, can be obtained by reacting the above two compounds with each other, while alkali metal chloride, such as sodium chloride, or alkali earth metal chloride, such as calcium chloride, is produced as a by-product. The alkali metal chloride or alkali earth metal chloride can be readily separated/removed from the solution of N,N-dimethyl anilinium·tetrakis (fluoroaryl) borate through the manipulation, such as liquid separation, filtration, and washing. When the reaction solvent is water, the alkali metal chloride or alkali earth metal chloride can be readily removed by filtering N,N-dimethyl anilinium·tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate followed by the washing with water. Also, for example, when the tetrakis(fluoroaryl) borate is tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide, and the cation seed generating compound is N,N-dimethylaniline·hydrochloride, the object product, that is, N,N-dimethyl anilinium·tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate, can be obtained by reacting the above two compounds with each other, while magnesium halide, such as magnesium bromide chloride, is produced as a by-product. The magnesium halide can be readily separated/removed from N,N-dimethyl anilinium·tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate through the manipulation, such as liquid separation, filtration, and washing. To be more specific, magnesium bromide chloride can be readily separated/removed by being washed with an acidic aqueous solution, such as hydrochloric acid, or being reacted with N,N-dimethylaniline·hydrochloride containing excessive hydrochloric acid followed by the washing with water. In short, the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative can be readily isolated/purified as crystals through an optional simple manipulation, such as removal (distillation) of the reaction solvent after a simple manipulation, such as liquid separation and filtration. Other and further objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will appear more fully from the following description. Also, the benefits of the present invention will be apparent from the ensuing explanation. THE BEST MODE FOR IMPLEMENTING THE INVENTION The present invention will be explained in detail by way of examples; however, the present invention is not limited to the following disclosure. In the following examples, NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectrum data are measured using tetramethyl silane (TMS) as a reference reagent in case of 1 H-NMR, and using trifluoro acetate as the reference reagent in case of 19 F-NMR, by setting the signal of each reference reagent to 0ppm. Example 1 Here, 100ml of a mixed solution of diethyl ether and toluene containing 0.0257 mol of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide as tetrakis (fluoroaryl)borate·magnesium halide is charged to a reaction vessel equipped with a thermometer, a dropping funnel, a stirrer, and a reflux condenser. A mixing volume ratio of diethyl ether and toluene as the solvent is 1:1. The mixed solution contains 0.0771 mol of magnesium bromide fluoride as the impurities. Meanwhile, 100ml (0.100 mol) of an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate serving as the carboxylate is charged to the dropping funnel. Then, the aqueous solution is dropped to the mixed solution over 10 minutes at room temperature with stirring of the mixed solution, and the reaction solution is stirred for further 30 minutes at room temperature. In other words, the purifying process 1 ○ of the present invention is adopted herein. When the stirring ends, the deposit (magnesium carbonate) is removed by subjecting the reaction solution to suction filtration. The filtrate is separated into an organic layer and a water layer, after which the water layer is extracted twice using 50ml of ethyl acetate in each. Then, ethyl acetate (approximately 100ml) used as the extraction liquid is added to the organic layer, while magnesium sulfate anhydride serving as a drying agent is added to dry the same. When the organic layer is dried, diethyl ether, toluene, and ethyl acetate are distilled out from the organic layer under reduced pressure, whereby brown crystals of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium are obtained as the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate compound. A survival rate of magnesium in the crystals is measured through X-ray fluorescence analysis, and no magnesium is detected in the crystals. Thus, it turned out that the crystals do not contain the impurities, such as magnesium halide. Also, the yield of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·sodium is found by measuring 19 F-NMR. More specifically, 19 F-NMR is measured under predetermined conditions using p-fluorotoluene as an internal standard reagent. Then, a peak integral of a fluorine atom of p-fluorotoluene, and a peak integral of fluorine atoms at the ortho-position of a pentafluorophenyl group in tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium are computed from the resulting 19 F-NMR chart first, and thence an amount of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium is computed using the above two peak integrals. The yield and purity of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium thus found are 89.1mol% and 96.0%, respectively. Example 2 Here, 100ml of a mixed solution of diethyl ether and toluene containing 0.025 mol of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide is charged to a reaction vessel of the same type as the one used in Example 1. A mixing volume ratio of diethyl ether and toluene is 1:1. Meanwhile, 100ml (0.100 mol) of an aqueous solution of sodium acetate serving as the carboxylate is charged to the dropping funnel. Then, the aqueous solution is dropped to the mixed solution over 10 minutes at room temperature with stirring of the mixed solution, and the reaction solution is stirred for further 60 minutes at room temperature. In other words, the purifying process 1 ○ of the present invention is adopted. When the stirring ends, the resulting solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer, and the water later is extracted once using 50ml of ethyl acetate. Subsequently, ethyl acetate serving as an extraction liquid is added to the organic layer, while magnesium sulfate anhydride is added to dry the same. When the organic layer is dried, diethyl ether, toluene, and ethyl acetate are distilled out from the organic layer under reduced pressure, whereby brown crystals of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium are obtained. The yield and purity of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium found in the same manner as Example 1 are 92.1mol% and 97.4%, respectively. Example 3 Here, 160ml of a solution (concentration: 29.5mol%) of di-n-butyl ether containing 0.047 mol of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide, and 300ml (0.300 mol) of 1N-hydrochloric acid serving as the acid are charged to a separatory funnel having a capacity of 500ml. Then, the separatory funnel is shaken satisfactorily first, and thence allowed to stand, whereby the solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. In other words, the purifying process 2 ○ of the present invention is adopted. The organic layer thus obtained is dried with an addition of magnesium sulfate anhydride. When the organic layer is dried, di-n-butyl ether serving as the solvent is distilled out from the organic layer under reduced pressure, whereby tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·hydride is obtained. The yield of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·hydride found in the same manner as Example 1 is 89.7mol%. Example 4 Here, 47.9g of a solution (concentration: 38.7mol%) of toluene containing 0.018 mol of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide, and 160ml (0.160 mol) of 1N-hydrochloric acid are charged to a separatory funnel having a capacity of 300ml. Then, the separatory funnel is shaken satisfactorily first, and thence allowed to stand, whereby the solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. Then, the organic layer and 30ml (0.030mol) of an aqueous solution of 1N-sodium hydroxide serving as the hydroxide are charged to a conical flask equipped with a stirrer and having a capacity of 200ml, and the reaction solution is stirred for one hour at room temperature. When the stirring ends, the solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. In other words, the purifying process 3 ○ of the present invention is adopted. The organic layer thus obtained is dried with an addition of magnesium sulfate anhydride. When the organic layer is dried, toluene is distilled out from the organic layer under reduced pressure, whereby crystals of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·sodium are obtained. The yield of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium found in the same manner as Example 1 is 93.5mol%. Example 5 Here, 45.6g of a solution (concentration: 37.4mol%) of toluene containing 0.017 mol of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide, and 75ml (0.150 mol) of 0.5N-sulfuric acid serving as the acid are charged to a separatory funnel having a capacity of 300ml. Then, the separatory funnel is shaken satisfactorily first, and thence allowed to stand, whereby the solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. Then, the organic layer and 20ml (0.020mol) of an aqueous solution of 1N-sodium hydroxide are charged to a conical flask equipped with a stirrer and having a capacity of 200ml, and the reaction solution is stirred for one hour at room temperature. When the stirring ends, the solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. In other words, the purifying process 3 ○ of the present invention is adopted. The organic layer thus obtained is dried with an addition of magnesium sulfate anhydride. When the organic layer is dried, toluene is distilled out from the organic layer under reduced pressure, whereby crystals of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·sodium are obtained. The yield of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium found in the same manner as Example 1 is 91.5mol%. Example 6 Here, 50ml (0.100 mol) of an aqueous solution of oxalic acid serving as the acid is charged to a reaction vessel of the same type as the one used in Example 1. Meanwhile, 100ml of a solution of di-n-butyl ether containing 0.025 mol of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·magnesium bromide is charged to the dropping funnel. Then, the solution is dropped to the aqueous solution over 10 minutes at room temperature with stirring of the aqueous solution, and the reaction solution is stirred for further 60 minutes at room temperature. When the stirring ends, the resulting solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer, after which the organic layer is washed with a 10wt% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide serving as the alkali metal hydroxide. Then, the washed solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. In other words, the purifying process 3 ○ of the present invention is adopted. The organic layer thus obtained is dried with an addition of magnesium sulfate anhydride. When the organic layer is dried, di-n-butyl ether is distilled out from the organic layer under reduced pressure, whereby crystals of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·sodium are obtained. The yield of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium found in the same manner as Example 1 is 95.0mol%. Example 7 Here, 100ml of a mixed solution of diethyl ether and di-n-butyl ether containing 0.042 mol of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide is charged to a reaction vessel of the same type as the one used in Example 1. A mixing volume ratio of diethyl ether and di-n-butyl ether as the solvent is 1:6. Meanwhile, 132g of a 10wt% aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid is charged to the dropping funnel. Then, the aqueous solution is dropped to the mixed solution over 10 minutes at room temperature with stirring of the mixed solution, and the reaction solution is stirred for further 60 minutes at room temperature. When the stirring ends, the resulting solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. The organic layer thus obtained is washed with a 15wt% aqueous solution of sodium succinate dibasic serving as the carboxylate, after which the solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. In other words, the purifying process 4 ○ of the present invention is adopted. The organic layer thus obtained is dried with an addition of magnesium sulfate anhydride. When the organic layer is dried, diethyl ether and di-n-butyl ether are distilled out from the organic layer under reduced pressure, whereby crystals of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium are obtained. The yield of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium found in the same manner as Example 1 is 97.9mol%. Example 8 Here, 100ml of a mixed solution of diethyl ether and di-n-butyl ether containing 0.041 mol of tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)borate·magnesium bromide is charged to a reaction vessel of the same type as the one used in Example 1. A mixing volume ratio of diethyl ether and di-n-butyl ether is 1:6. Meanwhile, 132g of a 10wt% aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid is charged to the dropping funnel. Then, the aqueous solution is dropped to the mixed solution over 10 minutes at room temperature with stirring of the mixed solution, and the reaction solution is stirred for 60 minutes at room temperature. When the stirring ends, the resulting solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. The organic layer thus obtained is washed with a 10wt% aqueous solution of sodium carbonate, after which the solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer. In other words, the purifying process 4 ○ of the present invention is adopted. The organic layer thus obtained is dried with an addition of magnesium sulfate anhydride. When the organic layer is dried, diethyl ether and di-n-butyl ether are distilled out from the organic layer under reduced pressure, whereby crystals of tetrakis(pentaflurorphenyl)borate·sodium are obtained. The yield of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate·sodium found in the same manner as Example 1 is 95.6mol%. Example 9 Here, 16.1g of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) borate·sodium obtained in Example 1 and 100ml of ethyl acetate serving as the reaction solvent are charged to a reaction vessel of the same type as the one used in Example 1. Meanwhile, 100ml (0.025 mol) of an aqueous solution of N,N-dimethylaniline·hydrochloride serving as the cation seed generating compound is charged to the dropping funnel. Then, the aqueous solution is dropped to the solution over 10 minutes at room temperature with stirring of the solution, and the reaction solution is let undergo reaction for one hour at room temperature with stirring. When the reaction ends, the reaction solution is separated to an organic layer and a water layer, and the water layer is extracted once using 50ml of ethyl acetate. Then, ethyl acetate serving as an extraction liquid is added to the organic layer, while magnesium sulfate anhydride is added to dry the same. When the organic layer is dried, ethyl acetate is distilled out from the organic layer under reduced pressure, whereupon black crystals are obtained. The crystals are washed with 50ml of diisopropyl ether, whereby light-brown N,N-dimethyl anilinium· tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate is obtained as the tetrakis(fluoroaryl)borate derivative.
