DESTRUCTION OF B-POLYFLUOROSUBSTITUTED O-CARBORANES INTO ANIONS OF B-FLUOROSUBSTITUTED NIDO-7,8-DICARBAUNDECABORATES BY THE ACTION OF ETHANOLIC ALKALI AND AMINES
Vn. Lebedev et al., DESTRUCTION OF B-POLYFLUOROSUBSTITUTED O-CARBORANES INTO ANIONS OF B-FLUOROSUBSTITUTED NIDO-7,8-DICARBAUNDECABORATES BY THE ACTION OF ETHANOLIC ALKALI AND AMINES, Russian chemical bulletin, 44(6), 1995, pp. 1102-1106
The destruction of B-polyfluorosubstituted o-carboranes by the action
of ethanolic alkali and amines was studied. The destruction of trifluo
ro-o-carborane was found to occur regioselectively. The nature of the
amine was shown to affect the stereochemistry of the destruction of tr
ifluoro-o-carborane. The intermediate of the reaction of tetrafluoro-o
-carborane with diethylamine was detected.
