The nature of H(H2O)n+ cations for n = 3-8 with weakly basic carborane counterions has been studied by IR spectroscopy in benzene and dichioroethane solution. Contrary to general expectation, neither Eigen-type H3O·3H2O+ nor Zundel-type H5O2+4H2O ions are present. Rather, the core species is the H7O3+ ion.
