The principles of a new α-shift correlation (ASC) NMR method are demonstrated on a model series of substituted derivatives of o-carborane for which reliable NMR data are available. This graphical method revealed an acceptable linear correlation between α(11B) or α(13C) shifts and those induced by substituents in unsubstituted (u) positions of the carborane cluster. The linearity holds for all nuclei involved in skeletal bonding: Δδ(N)u = g × α (where N = 11B, 13C, and 1H). The factor g (slope of the correlation line × 102) becomes an important measure of sensitivity of a given cage position to substituent changes. The β, γ, and δ = A (= antipodal) shifts can be therefore derived from the α-shift, are linearly proportional, and reflect additive character in double substitution. The ASC method appears to be an important tool for quantitative assessment of substituent NMR effects in all exo-substituted boron-cluster systems.

The use of nucleophilic and electrophilic processes allow the designed synthesis of several B-iodinated derivatives of o-carborane. Because of the straightforward Pd-catalyzed conversion of B-I to B-C bond with Grignard reagents, such as methylMgBr and biPhenylMgBr, both, symmetrical 3,6-R 2-1,2-closo-C2B10H10 and asymmetrical 3-I-6-Me-1,2-closo-C2B10H10 could be obtained. Not only conventional reactions in solution have been studied but also a highly efficient, clean and fast solvent-free procedure has provided successful results to regioselectively produce B-iodinated o-carborane derivatives by a careful control of the reaction conditions. The high number of nonequivalent leaving groups in boron iodinated o-carborane derivatives opens the possibility through B-C coupling to materials with novel possibilities and to self-assembling due to the enhanced polarizability of the C-H bond.
