eng Electron-rich 10-vertex Carborane Clusters: Synthesis, Reactivity and Catalytic Activity The chemistry of heteroborane clusters is a part of modern inorganic chemistry. They are based on electron-deficient two-electron multicentred bonds with the overall charge being neutral or negative. In 2021, we described the first thermally robust cationic carboranes supported by bulky N-heterocyclic carbenes, which significantly change the electron density within the cluster framework, and these compounds act as bases. In this work, the reactivity of 10-vertex closo-dicarbaboranes with different N-heterocyclic and mesoionic carbenes will be discussed as along with their structural rearrangements to thermodynamically stable products. The reactivity and catalytic activity of the prepared compounds will be presented as well.
