A series of cyanide-bridged derivatives of the arachno-octahydrotriborate(1-) and arachno-tetradecahydrononaborate(1-) ions, - and - respectively, have been prepared using chemical and electrochemical methods.Compounds prepared include the triborate species - and its substituted derivatives, - and -, together with the ions - and -.The ions - and - have also been obtained.The nonaborate derivatives include -, -, -, and -.
Bis(triphenylphosphine)copper(I) Derivates of Substituted arachno Ninevertex Borane Anions, Cu(PPh3)2(B9H13X) (X = H, NCS, NCSe, NCBPh3, NCBH3, or NCBH2NCBH3)

A series of metalloborenes, Cu(PPh3)2(B9H13X) (1)-(6), derived from substituted derivates of the tetradecahydrononaborate(1-) ions, -, in which X is respectively H, NCS, NCSe, NCBPh3, NCBH3, NCBH2NCBH3, have been prepared by treating salts of the anions with bis(triphenylphosphine)copper(I) tetrahydroborate.The new bis(triphenylphosphine)copper(I) nonaboranes (1)-(4) are shown by their 11B, 1H, and 31P n.m.r. spectra to be fluxional in solution, down to -50 deg C.All the neutral complexes are undissociated in dichloromethane but dissociate in acetonitrile solutions.In complexes (1)-(4), The metal and borane interact through hydrogen bridges on the B9 cage.In complexes (5) and (6) the interaction occurs through the BH3 moiety.
