Abstract
Trimethylsilyl-o-carborane serves as o-carborane carbanion upon fluori de ion promoted reaction with carbonyl compounds. Thus, in the presenc e of tetrabutylammonium fluoride, trimethylsilyl-o-carborane undergoes facile, unprecedented, carbodesilylation with aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes.
