Abstract

Crystal structure analyses of the icosahedral metallacarborane complexes, skeletal L₂MC_nB_11-n (L = R₃P, RNC; M = Pd, Pt; n = 1,2), have shown that the magnitude and direction of the slipped distortion depends on the substituents on the open pentagonal face of the ligand; extended Hückel calculations on model borane complexes have accounted for the observed geometries.
