By changing the charge distribution of boron vertices via introducing an amide on cage B(9), selective B(4) arylation o-carboranes Suzuki-Miyaura coupling has been developed. A series o-carborane derivatives decorated with diverse active groups have synthesized moderate to good yields, which proved be further transformed a novel kind tri-substituted nido-carborane fused oxazole potential application in neutron capture therapy, organometallic as well coordination chemistry.

The identification of an alternative chemical space in order to address the global challenge posed by emerging antimicrobial resistance is very much needed for discovery novel lead compounds. Boron clusters are currently being explored drug due their unique steric and electronic properties. However, challenges associated with synthesis derivatization techniques these compounds have limited utility rapid construction a library molecules screening against various biological targets as molecular platform. Herein, we report transition-metal-catalyzed regioselective direct B-H alkylation-annulation closo-dodecaborate anion natural products such menthol camphor directing groups. This method allowed 1,2,3-trisubstituted clusters, which were evaluated terms antibacterial activity WHO priority pathogens. Several synthesized dodecaborate derivatives displayed medium- high-level bactericidal Gram-positive Gram-negative bacteria.

A general strategy for the generation of hypervalent boron-centered carboranyl radicals at B(3), B(4), and B(9) positions has been developed first time via visible-light-promoted iodine atom abstraction from iodo-o-carboranes by low-valent nickel complex. These react with various (hetero)arenes to afford a wide range cage B-arylated carborane derivatives room temperature in very good excellent yields broad substrate scope. Their electrophilicities are dependent on vertex charges follow order B(3) > B(4) B(9). Both visible light catalyst proved critical radicals. The involvement boron is supported control experiments. reaction mechanism associated these reactions also proposed. This offers new protocol selected vertex, leading facile synthesis large class substituted molecules.

Abstract Carboranes are boron–carbon molecular clusters that possess unique properties, such as their icosahedron geometry, high boron content, and delocalized three‐dimensional aromaticity. These features render carboranes valuable building blocks for applications in supramolecular design, nanomaterials, optoelectronics, organometallic coordination chemistry, neutron capture therapy (BNCT) agents. Despite tremendous progress this field, stoichiometric chemical redox reagents largely required the oxidative activation of carborane cages. In context, electrosyntheses represent an alternative strategy more sustainable syntheses. It is only recent few years considerable has been made electrochemical cage functionalization carboranes, which summarized Minireview. We anticipate electrocatalysis will serve increasingly powerful stimulus within current renaissance electrochemistry.
