Tetraethylammonium 7,12-dicyano-1-carba-closo-dodecaborate

In the title compound, C8H20N+·C3H10B11N2−, the carborane anion cage displays nearly-perfect Cs symmetry, with the two CN groups lying on a noncrystallographic mirror plane that bisects the cage. In the crystal, the anions form extended chains along the a-axis direction, with C—H...N hydrogen bonds...
