Abstract
The first cobaltacarborane sandwich complex [3-Co-4,8'-8,4'(o-C6H4)2(1,2-C2B9H9)2](-) with two o-phenylene bridges between both deltahedral ligands is described. Phenylene rings containing angle of 72 grad bind the Cs counter-ion probably via π-donation. This is why the solubility of Cs salt in water is extremely low. Synthesis, properties and structure of the Cs salt are described.Keywords
