A Novel 9-Vertex Metallocarborane Containing a Monocarbon Carborane Ligand.
Abstract
The base degradation of orange pi-C5H5)Co(-B10C2H12) has been found to effect a polyhedral contraction reaction to give ((pi-C5H5)Co(pi-B7CH8)(-1)). This reaction constitutes the first reported example of a small metallocarborane formed by the removal of a carbon atom and three boron atoms from a larger, parent metallocarborane. (Author)
