SYNTHESIS OF CLOSO-3,3-(ETA(3),ETA(2)-TRICYCLO[5.2.1.0(2,6)] E-3-YL)-1-(HYDROXYMETHYL)-3,2,1-DICARBOLLYLRHODIUM AND THE CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE OF ITS DIMER WITH THE O-H...RH BOND

Protonation of the -3,3-(eta(4)-C10H12)-1-(CH2OH)-3,1,2-RhC2B9H10](-)
PPN+ (C10H12 - dicyclopentadiene, PPN+ - bis(triphenylphosphine)iminiu
m cation) at the ethylene bond of the norbornene moiety yields the neu
tral closo-3,3,3-(eta-C10H13)-1-(CH2OH)-3,1,2-RhC2B9H10 with an agosti
c C-H...Rh bond. On prolonged storage in EtOH, the latter complex is c
onverted into so-3,3-(eta(3,2)-C10H11)-1-(CH2OH)-3,1,2-RhC2B9H10 with
pi-allylolefinic type coordination. Its crystal structure as dimeric a
ggregates with O-H...O and O-H...Rh bonds was determined by X-ray diff
raction.
