Abstract

Reaction of a boryl hydride pincer complex (POBOP)Ru(H)(PPh3) (POBOP = 1,7-OP(i-Pr)2-m-2-carboranyl) and BH3(SMe2) at 70 °C led to the selective formation of a pincer-supported metallaborane (POBOP)Ru(B3H8). Single crystal structure of (POBOP)Ru(B3H8) was determined. This complex features coordination of the carborane cluster through adjacent boryl and borane groups that impose significantly different trans-influence on the coordinated B3H8 fragment.
