“…In addition, the boron cluster anions form compounds with metal(II) complex cations acting as counterions, e.g., Cu(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Mn(II) [15,[21][22][23][24][25][26]. In the presence of metals(III) complexes, the boron cluster anions act as reducing agents being oxidized to oxidoborates [27][28][29]. On the other hand, boron clusters form numerous products of the substitution of terminal hydrogen atoms by various functional groups keeping the initial closo-structure [30][31][32][33][34].…”

Gold(III) complexation with the octadecahydrido-eicosaborate anion [B20H18]2– was studied for the first time. It was found that when gold(III) complexes [Au(L)Cl2]BF4 (L = bipy, phen) reacted with [B20H18]2–, complexes [Au(L)Cl2]2[B20H18] were isolated. The compounds consisted of a cationic gold(III) complex [Au(L)Cl2]+ and the hydridoborate cluster as a counterion. X-ray diffraction studies revealed weak B–H...Au interactions for both compounds. Note that more reactive anions [BnHn]2– (n = 10, 12) in similar reactions with gold(III) complexes resulted in gold mirror reactions.
