The First Examples of Metallatricarbollides. Isomeric Twelve-Vertex Cyclopentadienyl Ferratricarbadodecaboranes [(η5-C5H5)-closo-FeC3B8H11]

Abstract
The first metallatricarbollides, six isomeric twelve-vertex metallatricarbaboranes of general structure [(η5-C5H5)-closo-FeC3B8H11], are formed in the reaction between TI[nido-7,8,9-C3B8H11] and [(η5-C5H5)- Fe(CO)2I] in toluene at reflux. Two of them have so far been satisfactorily identified as [3-(η5-C5H5)-closo-3,1,2,4-FeC3B8H11] and [2-(η5-C5H5)-closo-2,1,8,11-FeC3B8H11] by NMR spectroscopy.
