Abstract:Closo‐carborane anions are prominent, whereas the cations of the same are less abundant in the literature. As these ions have similar size and are weakly coordinating, the ionic liquids of these two ions could have important applications in many areas of chemistry. In view of limited number of polyhedral carborane cations available, we revisited the rearrangement of dicarboranyl methyl cation (7‐CH2 7,9‐nido‐C2B9H10+) using ab initio molecular dynamics calculations with metadynamics. Our simulations confirmed … Show more

“…These assumptions are applicable to icosahedral, bicapped squareantiprismatic and octahedral tricarba monocations C 3 B n−3 H n + (n = 12, 10, 6). 7,8 Mutual reactions of neutral NHCs with neutral heteroboranes might offer options for producing unusual motifs as a whole because both reaction components are far from being conventional. Indeed, the few attempts that have already been made have offered very interesting conclusions.…”
The synthetic efforts and spectroscopic characterization have afforded the first closo-dicationic octahedral phosphahexaborane along with new closo-monocationic pnictogenahexaboranes of the same shapes, whose formation has been DFT-examined.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
