“…The upper hemisphere of this thiaborane does not contain any Me group. 11 The methylation of nido-B 10 H 14 and 1,2,3,4-(CH 3 ) 4 -nido-B 10 H 10 has prompted us to methylate both 7,8,9,10,11,12-(CH 3 ) 6 -closo-1-SB 11 H 5 and closo-1-SB 11 H 11 at higher temperatures than those reported in ref 11. Indeed, 7,12-I 2 -2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,11-(CH 3 ) 9 -closo-1-SB 11 (1, Figure 1) and 7,8,12-I 3 -2,3,4,5,6,9,10,11-(CH 3 ) 8 -closo-1-SB 11 were obtained.…”
