title: Synthesis and characterization of the hexagonal prismatic cage [THF[subset or is implied by][PhB(CN)(3)](6)[Cp*Rh](6)](6+).
abstract: Condensation of [Cp*Rh(CH(3)NO(2))(n)](2+) and the tricyanoborate [PhB(CN)(3)](-) affords the hexagonal bipyramidal cage [[PhB(CN)(3)](6)[Cp*Rh](6)](6+), demonstrating that tetrahedral tricyanide building blocks can lead to novel cage structures.
