title: Nucleophilic addition of carborane anion to Ir, Rh-coordinated Cp* ring: C-C bond formation accompanied by reduction of metal center.
abstract: Reaction of carboranyl anion or its thiolate derivative with a fully-substituted Cp*-based group 9 (Ir, Rh) metal complex affords respectively a C-C bond formation complex and a salt metathesis product. This example represents the first nucleophilic addition attempt in the area of M-Cp* chemistry.
