Reversible addition of water to the high-hydride-content cluster [Rh6(PiPr3)6H12][BArF4]2. Synthesis and Structure of [Rh6PiPr3)6H11(OH)][BArF4]2.

The hydroxyhydrido salt [Rh(6)(P(i)Pr(3))(6)H(11)(OH)][BArF(4)](2) results from the addition of water to [Rh(6)(P(i)Pr(3))(6)H(12)][BArF(4)](2). This reaction is reversible, and the addition of dihydrogen to [Rh(6)(P(i)Pr(3))(6)H(11)(OH)][BArF(4)](2) results in the elimination of water and the regen...
