Macropolyhedral boron-containing cluster chemistry. Cluster opening and B-frame rearrangement in the reaction of B16H20 with [{(IrCl25-C5Me5)}2]. Synchrotron X-ray structures of [(η5-C5Me5)2Ir2B16H17Cl] and [(η5-C5Me5)2Ir2B16H15Cl]

Abstract

Products from the reaction of + nido ten-vertex : nido eight-vertex, B16H201 with [{(IrCl25-C5Me5)}2] and tmnd show unanticipated rearrangement of the starting {B16} skeleton, as exhibited by + nido ten-vertex : nido ten-vertex, [(η5-C5Me5)2Ir2B16H17Cl] 2 which has a {B2} edge conjunction and by + nido ten-vertex : nido eleven-vertex, [(η5-C5Me5)2Ir2B16H15Cl] 3 which has a {B3} face conjunction.
