A new class of octahedral zirconium cluster compounds containing only halide and hydride ligands is described. These contain the anions [Zr 6 X 18 H 4 ] 4− or [Zr 6 X 18 H 5 ] 3− (shown on the right). The hydrogen atoms are randomly disordered on positions in or very near to the centers of all the triangular faces of the Zr 6 octahedron according to X‐ray crystallography.
