Abstract: Reaction of 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)-ortho-carborane (L) with [K(thf){(MesBIAN)Co(η4-cod)}] (1, MesBIAN = bis(mesityliminoace-naphthene)diimine, cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) affords an anionic 13-vertex closo-cobaltacarborane cluster (2) in one step. The mechanism of this transformation has been studied by experimental and quantum… read more here.
