Abstract

AbstractThe potassium salt of the [1‐H2N‐2‐F‐closo‐1‐CB11H10]– anion (1) was obtained from an insertion reaction of Li3[7‐H2N‐nido‐7‐CB10H10] with BF3·OEt2. Anion 1 was protonated to the neutral species 1‐H3N‐2‐F‐closo‐1‐CB11H10 (H1) and it was iodinated with ICl to the [1‐H2N‐2‐F‐closo‐1‐CB11I10]– anion (2). All species were characterized by multinuclear NMR, IR, and Raman spectroscopy as well as by elemental analysis. The structure of H1·(CH3)2CO was studied by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and the experimentally determined bond lengths are compared to values derived from density functional calculations.
