“…2,6,7 Some of the closo-borates with excellent ionic conductivity include Li 2 B n H n , Na 2 B n H n , 4,5 Ag 2 B n H n 1 (n = 10, 12), mixed-anion compounds, such as Ag (2+x) I x B n H n 1 or Na 3 BH 4 B 12 H 12 , 8 and the carborates NaCB 11 H 12 or NaCB 9 H 10 , 9,10 while (NH 4 ) 2 B n H n were found to exhibit much lower conductivities, likely because of the larger mobile ion (NH 4 + ). 11,12 Recently, a system with the cation complex N 2 H 7 + was stabilized in the solid state. 13 Research interest has also focused on systems where hydrogen in the anion cages is replaced with a halogen (such as B 12 H 12 or B 12 Cl 12 ).…”
