New chemistry of sterically-crowded carboranes

Chapter one gives an introduction into heteroborane chemistry focussing on the areas of icosahedral and supraicosahedral (metalla)carboranes and their isomerisation mechanisms. Chapter two describes attempts at placing bulky substituents onto a 1,7-closo-C2B10 species so that upon reduction and subs...
