Abstract

Tetraiodo-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane and 9-bromo-8,10,12-triiodo-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane were synthesized by oxidative iodination of 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane and 9-bromo-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane, respectively, in AcOH using a mixture of nitric and sulfuric acid as an oxidant of iodine. The intermediates in the ortho-carborane iodination were identified. By the action of elemental bromine on 9-iodo-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane in the presence of aluminum chloride catalyst 9-iodo-8,10,12-tribromo-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane was obtained. Deborination of the synthesized substances with an alcohol solution of KOH led to formation of 1,5,6,10-tetraiodo-5-bromo-1,6,10-triiodo- and 5-iodo-1,6,10-tribromo-7,8-dicarbaundecaborates methylammonium salts.
