Synthesis of 8,9,12-trichloro-1,2- dicarba-closo-dodecaborane under increased pressure, and its consequent deborination

Abstract

A new chlorine-free method for the synthesis of 8,9,12-Cl3-1,2-C2B10H9, including autoclave heating for 12 h in carbon tetrachloride in the presence of aluminum chloride at 140-150 °C has been suggested. The presence of 8-CHCl2-9,12-Cl2-1,2-C2B10H9 in the reaction mixture has also been detected by GLC. Deborination of 8,9,12-Cl3-1,2-C2B10H9 and 8-CHCl2-9,12-Cl2-1,2-C2B10H9 by alkali alcohol solution leads to nido-structures isolated as salts Me4N+[1,5, 6-Cl3-7,8-C2B9H9]- and Me4N+[1-CHCl2-5,6-Cl2-7,8-C2B9H9]- with yields of 41% and 39%, respectively.
