Mixed halo/hydroxy carborane anions: thermally stable platforms for hydronium ion isolation

Abstract

Hydroxylation of the robust, weakly coordinating hexahalo- carborane anion system, CB11H6Br6−1, produces a new class of anion with mixed halo/hydroxyl substituents, HCB11(OH)5Br6−1 which can be used to isolate a number of hydronium cation salts including an ‘ice tautomer’ composed of hydronium cation, anion hydroxyl groups and coordinated water molecules.
