description: RhC4NH8O4Cl(CH3)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight methane molecules and two RhC4NH8O4Cl clusters. In one of the RhC4NH8O4Cl clusters, Rh4+ is bonded in a distorted square pyramidal geometry to four O2- and one Cl1- atom. There are two shorter (2.07 Å) and two longer (2.08 Å) Rh–O bond lengths. The Rh–Cl bond length is 2.61 Å. There are four inequivalent C1- sites. In the first C1- site, C1- is bonded to one N3- and three H1+ atoms to form corner-sharing CH3N tetrahedra. The C–N bond length is 1.48 Å. There is one shorter (1.09 Å) and two longer (1.10 Å) C–H bond length. In the second C1- site, C1- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. Both C–O bond lengths are 1.28 Å. In the third C1- site, C1- is bonded to one N3- and three H1+ atoms to form corner-sharing CH3N tetrahedra. The C–N bond length is 1.48 Å. All C–H bond lengths are 1.09 Å. In the fourth C1- site, C1- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.28 Å) and one longer (1.29 Å) C–O bond length. N3- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to two C1- and two H1+ atoms. Both N–H bond lengths are 1.05 Å. There are eight inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C1- atom. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C1- atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- and one Cl1- atom. The H–Cl bond length is 2.10 Å. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C1- atom. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C1- atom. In the seventh H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C1- atom. In the eighth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C1- atom. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rh4+ and one C1- atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rh4+ and one C1- atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rh4+ and one C1- atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rh4+ and one C1- atom. Cl1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Rh4+ and one H1+ atom. In one of the RhC4NH8O4Cl clusters, Rh4+ is bonded in a distorted square pyramidal geometry to four O2- and one Cl1- atom. There are a spread of Rh–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.08 Å. The Rh–Cl bond length is 2.65 Å. There are four inequivalent C1- sites. In the first C1- site, C1- is bonded to one N3- and three H1+ atoms to form corner-sharing CH3N tetrahedra. The C–N bond length is 1.49 Å. There is one shorter (1.09 Å) and two longer (1.10 Å) C–H bond length. In the second C1- site, C1- is bonded to one N3- and three H1+ atoms to form corner-sharing CH3N tetrahedra. The C–N bond length is 1.49 Å. There is one shorter (1.09 Å) and two longer (1.10 Å) C–H bond length. In the third C1- site, C1- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.28 Å) and one longer (1.29 Å) C–O bond length. In the fourth C1- site, C1- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. Both C–O bond lengths are 1.28 Å. N3- is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to two C1- and two H1+ atoms. There is one shorter (1.04 Å) and one longer (1.06 Å) N–H bond length.
