Abstract: Polyhedral boranes have potential applications in medicine and material science due to their unique structure and stability. However, tedious and low-yield synthetic methods limited their application. Herein, we have developed a facile large-scale synthetic method for M 2 [B 12 H 12 ] (M = Na, K) by the reaction of MBH 4 with N,N-dipropylaniline borane in diglyme at 120 or 140 °C in up to 88% yield. The mechanistic studies indicated that intermediates, such as [B 3 H 8 ] − and [B 9 H 14 ] − , were formed in th… Show more
