Abstract
The syntheses and structural elucidation of bimetallic thiolate complexes of early and late transition metals are described. Thermolysis of the bimetallic hydridoborate species [{Cp*CoPh}{µ-TePh}{µ-TeBH3-ĸ2Te,H}{Cp*Co}] (Cp* = ɳ5-C5Me5) (1) in the presence of CS2 afforded the bimetallic perthiocarbonate complex [(Cp*Co)2(μ-CS4-κ1S:κ2S')(μ-S2-κ2S″:κ1S‴)] (2) and the dithiolene complex [(Cp*Co)(μ-C3S5-κ1S,S'] (3). Complex 2 contains a four-membered metallaheterocycle (Co2S2) comprising a perthiocarbonate [CS4]2- unit and a disulfide [S2]2- unit, attached opposite to each other. Complex 2 was characterized by employing different multinuclear NMR, infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Preliminary studies show that [Cp*VCl2]3 (4) with an intermediate generated from CS2 and [LiBH4·THF] yielded thiolate species, albeit different from the cobalt system. Furthermore, a computational analysis was performed to provide insight into the bonding of this bimetallic perthiocarbonate complex.

Abstract
Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of group 4 metal-diboride ceramics from a single source is a versatile technique that finds many applications from hypersonic flight to microelectronics. Though the kinetics of CVD have been studied extensively-allowing significant process improvements-a mechanistic understanding of the process has yet to be attained. Computations suggest two plausible reaction pathways-one higher-energy and the second lower-that correlate well with experimental results reported in the literature, explaining phenomena such as high-temperature deposition resulting in films overstoichiometric in boron. These insights offer a new perspective that may be instrumental in the rational design of new precursors for single-source CVD.

Abstract
Transition metal triple-decker complexes are an interesting class of sandwich complexes that engrossed great attention due to their structures and properties. Over the decades, synthesis of triple-decker complexes featuring homocyclic, heterocyclic or π-conjugated rings as middle decks have been abundantly reported. In this regard, the chemistry of such complexes bearing boron in the middle deck are well explored due to the ability of boron-containing cycles to readily coordinate bifacially with metal atoms thereby forming triple-decker complexes. On the other hand, electron counting rules and theoretical calculations have strengthened our knowledge of the structure and bonding in these complexes. Further, these complexes can be used as synthons to generate organometallic polymers having interesting electronic, optical and magnetic properties that can be appropriately tuned to cater to a wide range of applications. In our quest for novel metallaboranes and metallaheteroboranes, we have been successful in isolating various triple-decker complexes that feature boron in the middle deck. This review explained elaborately the synthesis, structures, and bonding in such complexes reported by us and others.

Abstract
In an effort to synthesize metallaheteroborane clusters of higher nuclearity, the reactivity of metallaheteroboranes, nido-[(Cp*M)2B6S2H4(CS3)] (Cp* = C5Me5) (1: M = Co; 2: M = Rh) with various metal carbonyls have been investigated. Photolysis of nido-1 and nido-2 with group 6 metal carbonyls, M'(CO)5.THF (M' = Mo or W) were performed that led to the formation of a series of adducts [(Cp*M)2B6S2H4(CS3){M'(CO)5}] (3: M = Co, M' = Mo; 4: M = Co, M' = W; 5: M = Rh, M' = Mo; 6: M = Rh, M' = W) instead of cluster expansion reactions. In these adducts, the S atom of C=S group of di(thioboralane)thione {B2CS3} moiety is coordinated to M'(CO)5 (M = Mo or W) in η1-fashion. On the other hand, thermolysis of nido-1 with Ru3(CO)12 yielded one fused metallaheteroborane cluster [{Ru(CO)3}3S{Ru(CO)}{Ru(CO)2}Co2B6SH4(CH2S2){Ru(CO)3}2S], 7. This 20-vertex-fused cluster is composed of two tetrahedral {Ru3S} and {Ru2B2}, a flat butterfly {Ru3S} and one octadecahedron {Co2RuB7S} core with one missing vertex, coordinated to {Ru2SCH2S2} through two boron and one ruthenium atom. On the other hand, the room temperature reaction of nido-2 with Co2(CO)8 produced one 19-vertex fused metallaheteroborane cluster [(Cp*Rh)2B6H4S4{Co(CO)}2{Co(CO)2}2(μ-CO)S{Co(CO)3}2], 8. Cluster 8 contains one nido-decaborane {Rh2B6S2}, one butterfly {Co2S2} and one bicapped square pyramidal {Co6S} unit that exhibits an intercluster fusion with two sulfur atoms in common. Clusters 3-6 have been characterized by multinuclear NMR and IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and structurally determined by XRD analyses. Furthermore, the DFT calculations have been carried out to gain insight into electronic, structural and bonding patterns of the synthesized clusters.

Abstract
In an effort to synthesize cobalt-rich metallaheteroboranes from decaborane(14) analogues, we have studied the reaction of 10-vertex nido-[(Cp*Co)2B6H6E2] (Cp* = η5-C5Me5, 1: E = Se and 2: E = Te) with [Co2(CO)8] under thermolytic conditions. All of these reactions yielded face-fused clusters, [(Cp*Co)2B6H6E2{Co(CO)}(μ-CO){Co3(CO)6}] (3: E = Se and 4: E = Te). Further, when clusters 3 and 4 were treated with [Co2(CO)8], they underwent further cluster buildup reactions leading to the formation of 16-vertex doubly face-fused clusters [(Cp*Co)2B6H6E2{Co2(CO)2}(μ-CO)2{Co4(CO)8}] (5: E = Se and 6: E = Te). Cobaltaheteroboranes 3 and 4 comprise one icosahedron {Co4B6E2} and one square pyramidal {Co3B2} moiety, whereas 5 and 6 are made with one icosahedron {Co4B6E2} and two square pyramidal {Co3B2} cores. In an attempt to generate heterometallic metal-rich clusters, we have explored the reactivity of decaborane(14) analogue nido-[(Cp*Co)2B7TeH9] (7) with [Ru3(CO)12] at 80 °C, which afforded face-fused 13-vertex cluster [(Cp*Co)2B7H7Te{Ru3(CO)8}] (8). Cluster 8 is a rare example of a metal-rich metallaheteroborane in which one icosahedron {Co2Ru2B7Te} and a tetrahedron {Ru2B2} units are fused through a common {RuB2} triangular face. Further, the treatment of nido-[(Cp*Co)2B6S2H4(CH2S2)] (9) with [Fe2(CO)9] afforded 11-vertex nido-[(Cp*Co)2B6S2H4(CH2S2){Fe(CO)3}] (10). The core structure of 10 is similar to that of [C2B9H11]2- with a five-membered pentahapto coordinating face. All of the synthesized metal-rich metallaheteroboranes have been characterized by multinuclear nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, ESI-MS, and structurally solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Furthermore, theoretical investigations gave insight into the bonding of such higher-nuclearity clusters containing heavier chalcogen atoms.

Abstract
High yields of novel macropolyhedral selenaboranes are reported. Reactions of the monoanions of the syn- and anti-isomers of B18H22 with powdered selenium in THF variously give new macropolyhedral selenaboranes: 19-vertex [SeB18H19]- anion 1, 19-vertex [SeB18H21]- anion 2, 20-vertex [Se2B18H19]- anion 3, and 19-vertex [Se2B17H18]- anion 4. Single-cluster [hypho-Se2B6H9]- anion 5 and neutral arachno-Se2B7H9 6 also result. All of the macropolyhedrals 1, 2, 3, and 4 are characterized by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Anions 1 and 2 each consist of an 11-vertex subcluster joined by a common two-boron edge to a 10-vertex subcluster. Anion 3 consists of an 11-vertex subcluster joined by a common boron atom and an interboron link to an arachno-type 10-vertex subcluster. Unusually, anion 3 incorporates a hexagonal pyramidal intracluster structural motif in its 11-vertex subcluster. Anion 4 entails two arachno-type 10-vertex subclusters joined by a common boron atom, and with an additional intercluster boron-boron link. NMR data for syn-B18H22 and its mono- and dianions 7 and 8 and single-crystal X-ray diffraction results for these anions and also the monoanion 9 of anti-B18H22 are also reported. The oxaborane [μ-(8,9)-O-syn-B18H20]2- dianion 10 was serendipitously formed during the work and also characterized by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. Experimental NMR and structural findings are supported by DFT calculations throughout.
