Abstract Carboranes are a type of molecular clusters consisting carbon, hydrogen, and boron atoms. They possess unique characteristics, such as three-dimensional aromaticity, icosahedral geometry, robustness. Functionalized carboranes have been utilized in various fields, including medicine, materials, organometallic/coordination chemistry. In this context, selective functionalization o-carboranes has received tremendous attention, specifically the regio- enantioselective modification ten chemically similar BH vertices within carborane cage. recent years, significant progress made catalytic vertex-specific functionalization, well achieving cage BH.

A transition-metal-catalyzed iterative multiple cage B-H activation reaction for constructing multifunctionalization of o-carboranes in one pot is challenging. Herein, palladium-catalyzed regioselective tetra-arylation a wide range C(1)-N-aryl-o-carboranyl amides with aryl iodides has been developed. variety B(3,4,5,6)-tetra-arylated were synthesized good-to-excellent yields. Moreover, the mono-, di-, and triarylated intermediate products isolated, exact structures determined by NMR, high-resolution mass spectrometry, X-ray analysis, which provide rationale that order introduction groups into o-carborane B(4) > B(5) B(3)/B(6). This protocol represents powerful synthetic method polyfunctionalization derivatives under very mild simple conditions, offers valuable reference design synthesis molecular propellers based on carboranes.

The palladium-catalyzed generation of bis(o-carborane)s via regioselective B-B coupling was explored by using density functional theory (DFT). It is found that the reaction proceeds through sequential B4-H activation, B4'-H/B5'-H and reductive elimination, yielding ultimately. palladium catalyst tends to experience a Pd(II) → Pd(0) rather than Pd(IV) catalytic cycle, in which second B-H (B4'-H/B5'-H) activation serves as rate-determining step (RDS). Computed RDS step's barriers (27.0/29.0 kcal·mol-1, TS2a_I/TS2a'_I) consist well with experimental yields selectivities (P1a:P2a = 57%:23%). regioselectivity primarily controlled process, electronic effect playing key role steric hindrance influencing somewhat, confirmed natural bond orbital (NBO) noncovalent interaction (NCI) analyses. free-energy (27.0/29.6/31.1 kcal·mol-1) for AgOAc/AgF/NiCl2-co-assisted (Path a_I), AgOAc/AgF-co-assisted a_II), AgOAc-assisted a_III) cases agree perfectly corresponding trends (obtained 57%/43%/12% P1a, respectively). Theoretical predictions substituent effects also demonstrate consistency observations. This perfect agreement between experiments computations validates providing crucial insights into o-carboranes thus aiding controllable synthesis carborane materials.
