Synthesis and reactivity of 7,9-diphenyl-nido-carbaundecaboranes: Rearrangement processes in carbaplatinaboranes revisited

A number of synthetic routes towards diphenyl nido-carbaborane [7,9-Ph2-7,9-nido-C2B9H10] - have been elucidated. Base-induced degradation of 1,7-Ph2-1,7-closo-C2B10H10 afforded two isolable products [NEt3H]-[7,9-Ph2-x-OEt-7,9-nido-C2B 9H9] (x = 3 1a or 2 1b), both of which contain an ethoxide-subst...
