Abstract

Silver salt metathesis reactions using the very weakly nucleophilic anion B 11 CH 12 − reveal several unexpected features of this otherwise familiar reaction. In contrast to AgClO 4 , which undergoes rapid metathesis with IrCl(CO)(PPh 3 ) 2 , the silver carborane salt Ag(B 11 CH 12 ) forms a very stable adduct. This work shows that the role of the counterion to silver is much more important to the mechanism and outcome of silver halide abstraction reactions
