Carbonyl-metal fragment insertion into eight-vertex [closo-1-CB7H8]-. Facile synthesis of ten-vertex metalladicarbollide complexes [2,2,2-(CO)3-1-OH-closo-2,1,10-MC2B7H8]n-{M = Fe, Ru (n= 0), Mn, Re (n= 1)}.
Insertion of {M(CO)4} fragments (M = Fe, Ru, Mn, Re) into the eight-vertex monocarborane anion [closo-1-CB7H8]- affords ten-vertex metal-dicarbollide complexes.
