title: Unusual group migration and C(sp3)-H activation leading to stable metallacycles in the reactions of Cp*IrS2C2B10H10 and aryl azides.
abstract: The thermal or photochemical reactions of Cp*IrS(2)C(2)B(10)H(10) (1) and aryl azides lead to C-C coupling via C(sp(3))-H activation in 2 as well as the formation of C-S bonds and new-type SSN pincer ligands in 3-8 through ortho-substituted electron-withdrawing group migration over an aryl ring.
