The importance of transition metals in supraicosahedral heteroboranes

This thesis describes the synthesis and characterisation of icosahedral and mainly supraicosahedral metallacarboranes. Common late transition metal fragments are used . for metallation of the carborane cage and the consequences on the structure and behaviour of the molecules are discussed. Chapter 1...
