Abstract

Monomer, dimer, trimer... now a tetrameric icosahedral metallacarborane [{Rh(?5-Ph₂C₂B₉H₉)- (µ₃-OH)}₄] has been prepared as a minor by-product in the synthesis of [1,8-Ph₂-2-(1.2,3-?³- :5,6-?²-C₈H₁₁) -closo-2,1,8-RhC₂B₉H₉]. The tetramer has approximate S₄ symmetry and a cubanelike {Rh(OH)}₄ central core (see picture).
