A fast and simple B–C bond formation in metallacarboranes avoiding halometallacarboranes and transition metal catalysts

Abstract

An electrophilic substitution on metallacarboranes by using a stabilized carbocation that can be made in situ is reported for the first time. This new synthetic methodology provides a new perspective on easy metallacarborane derivatization with organic fragments, which enhances the properties of both fragments and widens their possible applications.
