Enhanced methods for the undecachlorination of [HCB11H11] and syntheses of [XCB11Cl11] from [HCB11Cl11] (X = Cl, Br, I, NH2)

Abstract

Utilizing SbCl3/SbCl5 mixtures at reflux, or of TCCA in a solid–solid reaction at 200 °C (with properly described precautions) are described as reliable and convenient procedures for the conversion of [HCB11H11] into [HCB11Cl11]. Procedures for the derivatization of the carbon vertex of [HCB11Cl11] to prepare [XCB11Cl11] salts (X = Cl, Br, I, NH2) are also formulated.
