Abstract
The efficient and selective functionalization of icosahedral carboranes (C2B10H12) at the boron vertexes is a long-standing challenge owing to the presence of 10 inert B-H bonds in a similar chemical environment. Herein, we report a new reaction paradigm for direct B-H functionalization of icosahedral carboranes via B-H homolysis enabled by a nitrogen-centered radical-mediated hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) strategy. Both the HAT process of the carborane B-H bond and the resulting boron-centered carboranyl radical intermediate have been confirmed experimentally. The reaction occurs at the most electron-rich boron vertex with the lowest B-H bond dissociation energy (BDE). Using this strategy, diverse carborane derivatization, including thiolation, selenation, alkynylation, alkenylation, cyanation, and halogenation, have been achieved in satisfactory yields under a photoinitiated condition in a metal-free and redox-neutral fashion. Moreover, the synthetic utility of the current protocol was also demonstrated by both the scale-up reaction and the construction of carborane-based functional molecules. Therefore, this methodology opens a radical pathway to carborane functionalization, which is distinct from the B-H heterolytic mechanism in the traditional strategies.

Abstract
This work describes a general method for the efficient production of a class of cage B-centered carboranyl radicals at the B3, B4, and B9 sites via a visible-light-promoted palladium(0)/palladium(I) pathway using readily available iodo-o-carboranes as the starting materials. The electrophilicities of these hypervalent boron-centered radicals decrease in the following order: B3 > B4 > B9. They are useful intermediates for the preparation of a family of cage B-(hetero)arylated o-carboranes at ambient temperature.

Abstract
The nucleophilic aromatic BH substitution reaction of carboranes is uncommon, compared to the electrophilic one. This work reported a pyridine-enabled transition-metal-free regioselective nucleophilic aromatic cage B(4)-H amination of 1,2-diaryl-o-carboranes with magnesium bisamides, giving a series of B(4)-aminated o-carboranes. DFT calculations showcased a stepwise B-N formation/B-H cleavage process, in which Mg-H formation/cage closure is the rate-determining step. Unprecedentedly, in the presence of 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-dipyridyl (dtbpy), a tandem B(4)-amination/cage isomerization reaction of o-carboranes was discovered for the facile preparation of B(2)-aminated m-carboranes. Control experiments indicated that magnesium complex, bidentate ligand (dtbpy) and reaction temperature were crucial in the cage isomerization process. This direct nucleophilic aromatic cage B-H amination reaction offers an alternative strategy for selective amination of o- and m-carboranes.

Abstract
As a preliminary step toward its condensation into the porous polymer Activated Borane, the thermolysis of nido-B10H14 (1) in benzene at 200 °C results in the generation of a number of phenylated borane molecular species. The principal product is the new monophenylated compound 5-Ph-nido-B10H13 (2), isolated in 48% yield (based on consumption of 1) and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, NMR, and mass spectrometry along with other minor products, such as 6-Ph-nido-B10H13 (3), for which we observe UV-light-driven conversion into 2 via a "vertex-flip" mechanism, and novel diphenylated 5,8-Ph2-nido-B10H12 (4). Together, the phenylated derivatives provide a valuable insight into the assembly of Activated Borane and ultimately inform on its structure. The new compounds also display strong blue fluorescence in both solid-state and in solution and are the first examples of the direct phenylation of nido-B10H14, thus opening the door to the straight-forward synthesis of highly luminescent organic-borane hybrid systems.

Abstract
A robust method for the selective labeling of peptides via manganese(I) catalysis was devised to achieve the C-2 alkenylation of tryptophan containing peptides with 1-ethynyl-o-carboranes. The manganese-catalyzed C-H activation was accomplished with high catalytic efficiency, and featured low toxicity, high functional group tolerance and excellent E-stereoselectivity. This approach unravels a promising tool for the assembly of o-carborane with structurally complex peptides of relevance to applications in boron neutron capture therapy.

Abstract
The iminoboryl o-carboranes (Me3Si)-Cb-B≡N-R (Cb = B10C2H10, 3a, R = SiMe3; 3b, R = tBu) have been successfully synthesized by tetrahydrofuran (THF)-promoted isomerization from the corresponding o-carborane-fused aminoboriranes Cb{BN(SiMe3)R} (2). The synthetic protocol of the previously reported borirane 2a was optimized. The borirane Cb{BN(SiMe3)tBu} (2b) and the iminoboranes 3a and 3b were fully characterized by NMR, IR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. The borirane 2a isomerizes more readily than 2b. The kinetics study revealed a bimolecular mechanism between borirane and THF, which is in good agreement with the computationally proposed reaction pathway. The title compounds are thermally robust, but compound 3a dimerized in the presence of a catalytic amount of tBuNC to give the cyclodimer 4. Quick equilibrium between 4 and the isonitrile adduct 4·tBuNC was observed in solution.

Abstract
A general strategy for the generation of hypervalent boron-centered carboranyl radicals at the B(3), B(4), and B(9) positions has been developed for the first time via visible-light-promoted iodine atom abstraction from iodo-o-carboranes by low-valent nickel complex. These radicals react with various (hetero)arenes to afford a wide range of cage B-arylated carborane derivatives at room temperature in very good to excellent yields with a broad substrate scope. Their electrophilicities are dependent on the vertex charges of the cage and follow the order B(3) > B(4) > B(9). Both visible light and nickel catalyst are proved critical to the generation of boron-centered carboranyl radicals. The involvement of boron radicals is supported by control experiments. A reaction mechanism associated with these reactions is also proposed. This strategy offers a new protocol for the generation of boron-centered carboranyl radicals at the selected boron vertex, leading to a facile synthesis of a large class of cage boron substituted carborane molecules.

Abstract
Metal-catalyzed mono-acylmethylation of pyridylcarboranes has been realized using α-carbonyl sulfoxonium ylides as a coupling partner. The reaction features high efficiency, excellent site-selectivity and good functional group tolerance. In the presence of pyridyl and enolizable acylmethyl groups, a post-coordination mode has been proposed and validated by in situ high resolution mass spectroscopy (HRMS) to rationalize the unique mono-substitution. Post-functionalization at the newly incorporated alkyl site provides additional utility of this method, including the construction of carborane-fused indoliziniums and quinoliziniums. We believe that these mono-alkylated carboranes, together with their post-functionalized derivatives, may find applications in luminescent materials and drug discovery in the near future.

Abstract
This study focuses on uncovering the regioselectivity, directing group, ligand, and solvation effect in B-H activation, which was investigated by DFT calculations. The reaction mechanism was investigated in vacuum, and the advantageous reaction pathway and rate-determining step were determined. Furthermore, the solvation effects and the ligand that coordinated with Pd were studied. The results showed that in neutral and cationic pathways, the anion (OTf)/ligand (1,10-phenanthroline) exerted significant influence on the transition metal catalytic center Pd, thus affecting B-H activation at different sites. The solvation effects also exerted significant influence on the reaction. The greater the polarity of the solvent, the greater the influence on the energies of all stationary points.

Abstract
Palladium-catalyzed iterative cage B-H arylation reaction of a wide range of B(4)-acylamino-o-carboranes with aryl iodides has been developed, leading to the formation of B(5,8,9)-triarylated B(4)-acylamino-o-carboranes with excellent regioselectivity. Moreover, B(5,8,9)-triarylated carboranes bearing three different aryl groups were synthesized from B(4)-acylamino-o-carborane and three different aryl iodides. The order of introduction [B(9) > B(8) > B(5)] of aryl groups into the B(5,8,9)-triarylation reaction was determined for the first time through NMR monitoring and X-ray analyses.

Abstract
The convenient cross-coupling of sp2 or sp3 carbons with a specific boron vertex on carborane cage represents significant synthetic values and insurmountable challenges. In this work, we report an Rh-catalyzed reaction between o-carborane and N-acyl-glutarimides to construct various Bcage -C bonds. Under the optimized condition, the removable imine directing group (DG) leads to B(3)- or B(3,6)-C couplings, while the pyridyl DG leads to B(3,5)-Ar coupling. In particular, an unexpected rearrangement of amide reagent is observed in pyridyl directed B(4)-C(sp3 ) formation. This scalable protocol has many advantages, including easy access, the use of cheap and widely available coupling agents, no requirement of an external ligand, base or oxidant, high efficiency, and a broad substrate scope. Leveraging the RhI dimer and twisted amides, this method enables straightforward access to diversely substituted and therapeutically important carborane derivatives at boron site, and provides a highly valuable vista for carborane-based drug screening.

Abstract
The simple and efficient method was developed for the one-pot synthesis of B-substituted aryl derivatives of ortho-carborane with functional groups sensitive to organolithium and organomagnesium reagents using 9-iodo-ortho-carborane and generated in situ organozinc compounds. The method proposed was used to prepare a series of 9-aryl-ortho-carboranes, including those containing nitrile and ester groups, 9-RC6H4-1,2-C2B10H11 (R = p-Me, p-NMe2, p-OCH2OMe, o-OMe, p-OMe, o-CN, p-CN, o-COOEt, m-COOEt, and p-COOEt). It was demonstrated that the same approach can be used for synthesis of diaryl derivatives of ortho-carborane 9,12-(RC6H4)2-1,2-C2B10H10 (R = H, p-Me). The solid-state structures of 9-RC6H4-1,2-C2B10H11 (R = p-NMe2, p-OCH2OMe, o-OMe, o-CN, p-CN, m-COOEt, and p-COOEt) and 9,12-(p-MeC6H4)2-1,2-C2B10H10 were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction.

Abstract
This work reports an unprecedented cascade cyclization of 1-arylethynyl-2-alkyl-o-carboranes promoted by magnesium-mediated sp3 C-H activation. Treatment of 1-arylethynyl-2-alkyl-o-carboranes with MeMgBr gives a series of carborane-fused cyclopentanes in very good yields. Deuterium labelling and control experiments suggest that HMgBr, resulting in situ from the nucleophilic substitution of cage B-H bonds with Grignard reagent, initiates the reaction, in which magnesium-promoted intramolecular sp3 C-H activation serves as a key step. This work not only offers a new route for the synthesis of carborane-fused cyclopentanes, but also sheds some light on Mg-mediated C-H activation and functionalization.

Abstract
Palladium-catalyzed regioselective di- or mono-arylation of o-carboranes was achieved using weakly coordinating amides at room temperature. Therefore, a series of B(3,4)-diarylated and B(3)-monoarylated o-carboranes anchored with valuable functional groups were accessed for the first time. This strategy provided an efficient approach for the selective activation of B(3,4)–H bonds for regioselective functionalizations of o-carboranes. B–H: site-selective B(3,4)–H arylations were accomplished at room temperature by versatile palladium catalysis enabled by weakly coordinating amides.![]()

Abstract
Vertex-specific functionalization of carboranes has received considerable research interest, due to the valuable application of carborane derivatives in medicine, coordination/organometallic chemistry and materials. In comparison with a protic cage C-H bond, cage B-H is hydridic and generally less polar, with a bond dissociation energy of ca. 108 kcal mol-1. These features make B-H activation quite different from that of the C-H bond. In addition, selectivity among ten very similar BH vertices in o-carborane is challenging yet crucial to the effective construction of carborane-based functional molecules. To address these issues, a brand new strategy of cage B-H nucleophilic substitution has recently been presented and developed for straightforward and regioselective cage B-H functionalization. The regioselectivity can be controlled by the electronic/steric properties of the cage carbon substituents. This Frontier article highlights the recent advancement in the nucleophilic cage B-H substitution of carboranes.

Abstract
Palladium-catalyzed dehydrogenative B-H/C-H cross coupling of monocarborane anions with alkenes is reported, allowing for the first time the isolation of selectively penta-alkenylated boron clusters. The reaction cascade is regioselective for the cage positions, leading directly to B2-6 functionalization. Under mild and convenient conditions, styrenes, benzylic alkenes and aliphatic alkenes are demonstrated to be viable coupling partners with exclusive vinyl-type B-C bond formation. Multiple subsequent transformations provide access to directing group-free products, chiral derivatives and penta-alkylated cages. The five-fold coupling, combined with the latter reactions, represents a powerful methodology for the straightforward synthesis of new classes of boron clusters.
