The chemistry of transition metal complexes containing bulky and stable o-carborane unit
has developed greatly in the past few decades. The recent discovery in this field of many …

The accurate selection of a ligand for a metal-catalyzed homogeneous reaction can be as
decisive as the selection of the metal. Incorporating a carborane cage as a backbone to …

New applications in which the carborane and metallacarborane species play a crucial role
have been recently developed. In these applications, clusters display many particular …

The multiple binding modes of [3, 3 '-Co (1, 2-C2B9H11) 2]-allow it to adjust to different
coordinating or geometric demands.[3, 3 '-Co (1, 2-C2B9H11) 2]-can behave as a platform …

1, 2-Cc-substituted o-carboranes, where Cc represents the cluster carbon atoms, display a
range of experimental/computed Cc⋯ Cc distances from 1.629/1.624 Å for the unsubstituted …

The single, double, and triple bond distances are well defined in conventional organic
compounds. Cluster boron chemistry, in particular the o-carboranes, provides the possibility …

A new series of the boron substituted cobalt bis (dicarbollide)(1-) ion (1) derivatives of the
general formula closo-[(8-X-(CH2 CH2O) 2-1, 2-C2B9H10)(1′, 2′-C2B9H11)-3, 3 …

Monophosphines and bisphosphines bearing anionic groups derived from the 7, 8-dicarba-
nido-undecaborate unit, such as [7-PR2-8-Me-7, 8-C2B9H10]− and [7, 8-(PR2) 2-7, 8 …

Forced exo-nido rhoda and ruthenacarboranes containing monothio and
monophosphinocarboranes have been tested as catalyst precursors in different catalytic …

Deltahedral metallacarborane compounds have recently been discovered as potent,
specific, stable, and nontoxic inhibitors of HIV-1 protease (PR), the major target for AIDS …
