Abstract
The syntheses of hexabrominated closo-carborates decorated with different chiral Binol-derived phosphonates and their conjugate acids are described. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals a polymeric structure for the sodium salt with the anionic units connected by [B-Br-Na-O═P]+ linkages. For the acid, coordination of the proton to the phosphonate's P═O oxygen atom is assumed. The pKa value was estimated by combining experiments and computations. Application of these Brønsted acids as chiral catalysts in an imino-ene and a Mukaiyama-Mannich reaction was moderately successful.

Abstract
Solid-state sodium batteries have attracted great attention owing to their improved safety, high energy density, large abundance and low cost of sodium compared to the current Li-ion batteries. Sodium-boranes have been studied as potential solid-state electrolytes and the search for new materials is necessary for future battery applications. Here, a facile and cost-effective solution-based synthesis of Na2B11H13 and Na11(B11H14)3(B11H13)4 is demonstrated. Na2B11H13 presents an ionic conductivity in the order of 10-7 S cm-1 at 30 °C, but undergoes an order-disorder phase transition and reaches 10-3 S cm-1 at 100 °C, close to that of liquids and the solid-state electrolyte Na-β-Al2O3. The formation of a mixed-anion solid-solution, Na11(B11H14)3(B11H13)4, partially stabilises the high temperature structural polymorph observed for Na2B11H13 at room temperature and it exhibits Na+ conductivity higher than its constituents (4.7 × 10-5 S cm-1 at 30 °C). Na2B11H13 and Na11(B11H14)3(B11H13)4 exhibit an oxidative stability limit of 2.1 V vs. Na+/Na.

Abstract
Two series of zinc salts, [EtZn][A] and Zn[A]2, with weakly coordinating anions [A]- as counterions have been prepared, and their activities as catalysts for hydrosilylation reactions of 1-hexene, benzophenone, and acetophenone have been investigated. The counterions and per- and partially chlorinated 1-ammonio-closo-dodecaborate anions [Me3NB12Cl11]- [1]-, [Pr3NB12H5Cl6]- [2]-, [Bu3NB12H4Cl7]- [3]-, and [Hex3NB12H5Cl6]- [4]- were chosen as potential and more readily available alternatives to carborate anions such as [CHB11Cl11]- and [HexCB11Cl11]-. The basicity of anion [4]- was determined as being close to that of the triflimide anion [N(SO2CF3)2]-, and the fluoride ion affinities (FIAs) of compounds [EtZn][2] and Zn[2]2 are lower than those of the Lewis acids B(C6F5)3 and Zn[HexCB11Cl11]2. The higher anion basicity and the resulting lower Lewis acidity of the zinc centers result in low activity in 1-hexene hydrosilylation catalysis and only moderate activity in the hydrosilylation catalysis of benzophenone and acetophenone.

Abstract
Lithium and sodium salts of the closo-carbadodecaborate anion [CB11H12]- have been shown to form stable solid-state electrolytes with excellent ionic conductivity for all-solid-state batteries (ASSB). However, potential commercial application is currently hindered by the difficult, low-yielding, and expensive synthetic pathways. We report a novel and cost-effective method to synthesize the [CB11H12]- anion in a 40% yield from [B11H14]-, which can be synthesized using common laboratory reagents. The method avoids the use of expensive and dangerous reagents such as NaH, decaborane, and CF3SiMe3 and shows excellent reproducibility in product yield and purity.

Abstract
The history of silyl cations has all the makings of a drama but with a happy ending. Being considered reactive intermediates impossible to isolate in the condensed phase for decades, their actual characterization in solution and later in solid state did only fuel the discussion about their existence and initially created a lot of controversy. This perception has completely changed today, and silyl cations and their donor-stabilized congeners are now widely accepted compounds with promising use in synthetic chemistry. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the fundamental facts and principles of the chemistry of silyl cations, including reliable ways of their preparation as well as their physical and chemical properties. The striking features of silyl cations are their enormous electrophilicity and as such reactivity as super Lewis acids as well as fluorophilicity. Known applications rely on silyl cations as reactants, stoichiometric reagents, and promoters where the reaction success is based on their steady regeneration over the course of the reaction. Silyl cations can even be discrete catalysts, thereby opening the next chapter of their way into the toolbox of synthetic methodology.

Abstract
The preparation of a molecule with two alkyl‐tethered silylium‐ion sites from the corresponding bis(hydrosilanes) by two‐fold hydride abstraction is reported. The length of the conformationally flexible alkyl bridge is crucial as otherwise the hydride abstraction stops at the stage of a cyclic bissilylated hydronium ion. With an ethylene tether, the open form of the hydronium‐ion intermediate is energetically accessible and engages in another hydride abstraction. The resulting bis(silylium) ion has been NMR spectroscopically and structurally characterized. Related systems based on rigid naphthalen‐n,m‐diyl platforms can only be converted into the dications when the positively charged silylium‐ion units are remote from each other (1,8 versus 1,5 and 2,6).

Abstract
Attempts have been made to prepare salts with the labile tris(trimethylsilyl)chalconium ions, [(Me3 Si)3 E]+ (E=O, S), by reacting [Me3 Si-H-SiMe3 ][B(C6 F5 )4 ] and Me3 Si[CB] (CB- =carborate=[CHB11 H5 Cl6 ]- , [CHB11 Cl11 ]- ) with Me3 Si-E-SiMe3 . In the reaction of Me3 Si-O-SiMe3 with [Me3 Si-H-SiMe3 ][B(C6 F5 )4 ], a ligand exchange was observed in the [Me3 Si-H-SiMe3 ]+ cation leading to the surprising formation of the persilylated [(Me3 Si)2 (Me2 (H)Si)O]+ oxonium ion in a formal [Me2 (H)Si]+ instead of the desired [Me3 Si]+ transfer reaction. In contrast, the expected homoleptic persilylated [(Me3 Si)3 S]+ ion was formed and isolated as [B(C6 F5 )4 ]- and [CB]- salt, when Me3 Si-S-SiMe3 was treated with either [Me3 Si-H-SiMe3 ][B(C6 F5 )4 ] or Me3 Si[CB]. However, the addition of Me3 Si[CB] to Me3 Si-O-SiMe3 unexpectedly led to the release of Me4 Si with simultaneous formation of a cyclic dioxonium dication of the type [Me3 Si-μO-SiMe2 ]2 [CB]2 in an anion-mediated reaction. DFT studies on structure, bonding and thermodynamics of the [(Me3 Si)3 E]+ and [(Me3 Si)2 (Me2 (H)Si)E]+ ion formation are presented as well as mechanistic investigations on the template-driven transformation of the [(Me3 Si)3 E]+ ion into a cyclic dichalconium dication [Me3 Si-μE-SiMe2 ]2 2+ .

Abstract
We report a method to obtain carba-closo-dodecaborate anion CB11H12- from boron cluster B11H14- in up to 95% yield using difluorocarbene to complete the carborane cluster. Difluorocarbene itself comes from readily available Ruppert-Prakash reagent CF3SiMe3. The synthesis is straightforward to carry out in heavy wall glass pressure tubes without the need for a glove-box and is easily scalable to 15 g scale.

Abstract
Starting from an optimized synthesis of silylated phosphoric acid, OP(OSiMe3)3, a borate salt bearing the [P(OSiMe3)4]+ cation was generated in the reaction of OP(OSiMe3)3 with [Me3Si-H-SiMe3][B(C6F5)4], isolated, and fully characterized. Analogously to the protonated species, phosphoric acid (H3PO4) reaction of OP(OSiMe3)3 with a base led to the formation of the unknown [O2P(OSiMe3)2]- anion, which could be crystallized as potassium salt and structurally characterized, too. Both [P(OSiMe3)4]+ and [O2P(OSiMe3)2]- can be regarded as the formal autoprotolysis products of OP(OSiMe3)3.
