The second-order rate constants for the reactions of the title complexes with HBF4 in THF do not correlate with the previously reported pK(a)'s of these complexes. The lack of formation of dihydrogen complexes in their reactions with HCl, HBr, or CF3COOH in THF and acetone solutions indicates the limited validity of predictions based on aqueous pK(a) scales.
