ConspectusCarboranes are a class of polyhedral carbon-boron molecular clusters featuring three-dimensional aromaticity, which often considered as 3D analogues benzene. Their unique structural and electronic properties make them invaluable building blocks for applications ranging from functional materials to versatile ligands pharmaceuticals. Thus, selective functionalization carboranes has received tremendous research interest. In earlier days, the vast majority works in this area were focused on cage carbon via facile deprotonation CH, followed by reaction with electrophiles. On contrary, B-H activation is very challenging since 10 bonds o-carborane similar, how achieve desired transformation at specific boron vertex long-standing issue.As more electronegative than boron, property results different charges cage, follow order B(3,6)-H ≪ B(4,5,7,11)-H < B(8,10)-H B(9,12)-H. We thought that difference may trigger favorite interaction proper transition metal complex bond carborane, could be utilized solve selectivity issue. Accordingly, our strategy described follows: (1) electron-rich catalysts good most electron-deficient (connected both C-H vertices); (2) relatively B(8,9,10,12)-H (with no bonding either (3) directing-group-assisted catalysis appropriate only one vertex), whose lie middle range bonds. This been successfully applied laboratory other groups development series synthetic routes catalytic carborane resulting synthesis large number cage-boron-functionalized derivatives regioselective fashion. Subsequently, significant progress emerging made.In 2013 we reported tetrafluorination o-carboranes using an Pd(II) salt, [Pd(MeCN)4][BF4], catalyst. 2014 disclosed first example carboxy-directed alkenylation B(4) promoted Ir(III) 2017 presented Ir(I)-catalyzed diborylation also uncovered Pd-catalyzed asymmetric chiral-at-cage 2018.

Summary of main observation and conclusion Ir‐catalyzed cascade dehydrogenative CH/BH BH/OH cross‐coupling carboranyl carboxylic acid with readily available benzoic has been achieved, leading to the facile synthesis previously unavailable carborano‐coumarin in a simple one‐pot process. Two cage B—H, one aryl C—H O—H bonds are activated construct efficiently new B—C B—O bonds. The cyclization can stop at first B—H/C—H step by tuning reaction conditions, resulting series α‐carboranyl carborane derivatives. Control experiments indicate that dehydrocoupling proceeds preferentially over B—H/O—H dehydrocoupling, both directing groups oxidants crucial for this reaction. An iridium(V) intermediate is proposed be involved catalytic cycle.
