Abstract
Anaerobic reaction of Tl2C2B9H11 with a reaction mixture of AgBr and 2 -fold amount of EPh(3) in CH2-Cl2 afforded off-white sigma-bonded nido -argentacarboranes )-4,9,4',9'-(mu-H)(4)-7,8,7',8'-nido-(C2B9H10)(2)] (E = As and Sb) whose dimeric nature does not remain intact in solutio n resulting in the wigwag fluxional motion of the Ag(EPh(3))(2) moiety around the upper C2B3 belt boron atoms of the carborane cage in the m onomeric (EPh(3))(2)AgC2B9H12 unit.
