TERMINAL SUBSTITUTION AND CAGE INCORPORATION OF AN ETA-CYCLOPENTADIENYL RING INTO BORANE CAGE STRUCTURES - CRYSTAL-STRUCTURES OF [MO(ETA-C5H5)(ETA-5 ETA-1-C5H4)B4H7] AND [MO(ETA-C5H5)(ETA-3 ETA-2-C3H3)C2B9H9]

The synthesis and crystal structure of the molybdaborane [Mo(η-C 5H5)(η5:η1-C 5H4)B4H7] (1) and of the molybdacarbaborane [Mo(η-C5H5)(η3: η2-C3H3)C2B9H 9] (2) formed via cyclopentadienyl ring activation are reported.
