G. Ferguson et al., AN AIR-STABLE, CATIONIC METALLACARBORANE WITHOUT A CHARGE-COMPENSATEDCARBORANE LIGAND, Chemical communications, (5), 1996, pp. 679-681
The first air-stable, cationic rhodadicarborane complex, CN)-3,3-(PPh(
2)Me)(2)-3,1,2-closo-RhC2B9H11][SbF6] 1, which does not contain a 'cha
rge-compensated' carborane ligand is synthesised and structurally char
acterised by X-ray crystallography and spectroscopic techniques (IR an
d NMR).
