27. The cluster [Rh6(CO)16] undergoes irreversible reduction at Ep,c = –1.18 V vs Fc/Fc+. Conditions: cyclic voltammetry in dichloromethane at room temperature and v = 100 mV s–1. IR spectroelectrochemistry showed that this reduction step produces the dianion [Rh6(CO)15]2– (ν(CO) at 2 000 sh, 1 990 s, 1 964 m, 1 789 sh, 1 750 m cm–1), and some minor side-product(s) (ν(CO) at 2 045, 2 031 cm–1). On reoxidation, the parent cluster was recovered for about 75%.
