17. 1 yielded very similar results, but they were not of superior quality. The superlattice is of little chemical significance and of only modest structural significance; the differences between the structure of the C-centered cluster and the two B-centered compounds seem to lie in distortions of part of the water network. Distortions in this part of the structure may be present in all three compounds, but long-range ordering of such distortions is observed only in 2. Further details will be given in a subsequent publication.

19. Splitting of the peaks owing to the presence of isomers for x = 2-4 is not observed because of exchange of terminal ligands. Spectra recorded at higher temperature are broadened, as species with different x become equivalent by exchange.
