The reaction between molecular oxygenm and rhodium hydrides L(OH)RhH{sup +} (L = (NH{sub 3}){sub 4}, trans-L{sup 1}, and cis-L{sup 1}, where L{sup 1} = cyclam) in basic aqueous solutions rapidly produces the corresponding hydroperoxo complexes. Over the pH range 8 < pH < 12, the kinetics exhibit a first order dependence on [OH{sup -}]. The dependence on [O{sub 2}] is less than first order and approaches saturation at the highest concentrations used. These data suggest an attack by OH{sup -} at the hydride with k = (1.45 {+-} 0.25) x 10{sup 3} M{sup -1} s{sup -1} for trans-L{sup 1}(OH)RhH{sup +} at 25 C, resulting in heterolytic cleavage of the Rh-H bond and formation of a reactive Rh(I) intermediate. A competition between O{sub 2} H{sub 2}O for Rh(I) is the source of the observed dependence on O{sub 2}.
