Abstract

Rb(BH)7HB2BH crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2_1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight boranediylradical molecules, eight HB2 clusters, and four Rb(BH)7 clusters. In each HB2 cluster, there are two inequivalent B+0.60- sites. In the first B+0.60- site, B+0.60- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one H+0.56+ atom. The B–H bond length is 1.32 Å. In the second B+0.60- site, B+0.60- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one H+0.56+ atom. The B–H bond length is 1.32 Å. H+0.56+ is bonded in a water-like geometry to two B+0.60- atoms. In each Rb(BH)7 cluster, there are two inequivalent Rb1+ sites. In the first Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight H+0.56+ atoms. There are a spread of Rb–H bond distances ranging from 2.85–3.16 Å. In the second Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven H+0.56+ atoms.
