Abstract
Building upon the key results of our earlier work on rhodaboranes, we continue to explore the chemistry of two nido-rhodaborane clusters, [(Cp*Rh)2B8H12] (1) and [(Cp*Rh)2B6H10] (2) with [Au(PPh3)Cl] that yielded [(Cp*Rh)2(AuPPh3)2B8H10] (3) and isomeric [(Cp*Rh)2(AuPPh3)2B6H8] (4a,b) respectively. The reactivity of 2 with [Au(PPh3)Cl] was rather unusual. In 3 Au exhibits a regular μ2-bonding mode, while in 4a,b there is a μ3-bonding with a Au–Rh bond. Further, the reactivity of 2 was performed with [Fe2(CO)9] that permitted the isolation of 12-vertex [(Cp*Rh)2B6H6{Fe(CO)2}2{Fe(CO)3}2] (5), 7-vertex [(Cp*Rh)2{Fe(CO)3}2B3H3] (6), and the heterometallic compound [(Cp*Rh)2{Fe(CO)3}2(μ3-CO)2] (7) in moderate to good yields. The cluster core of 5 consists of a 10-vertex isocloso geometry with two additional {Fe(CO)3} vertices capping two trigonal faces. Cluster 6 contains a capped-octahedral geometry, where one of the boron atoms is in the capping position. All of the compounds have been characterized by IR and 1H, 11B, and 13C NMR spectroscopy in solution, and the solid-state structures were established by crystallographic analysis of 3–7.
