Abstract
To realize an energy storage transition beyond Li-ion competitive technologies, earth-abundant elements, such as Mg, are needed. Carborane anions are particularly well-suited to realizing magnesium-ion batteries (MIBs), as their inert and weakly coordinating properties beget excellent electrolyte performance. However, utilizing these materials in actual electrochemical cells has been hampered by the reliance on the Mg2+ salts of the commercially available [HCB11H11]- anion, which is not soluble in more weakly binding solvents apart from the higher glymes. Herein, we demonstrate it is possible to iteratively engineer the [HCB11H11]- anion surface synthetically to address previous solubility issues and yield a highly conductive (up to 7.33 mS cm-1) and electrochemically stable (up to +4.2 V vs Mg2+/0) magnesium electrolyte that surpasses the state of the art. This novel non-nucleophilic electrolyte exhibits highly dissociative behavior regardless of concentration and is tolerant of prolonged periods of cycling in symmetric cells at high current densities (up to 2.0 mA cm-2, 400 h). The hydrocarbon functionalized carborane electrolyte presented here demonstrates >96% Coulombic efficiency when paired with a Mo6S8 cathode. This approach realizes a needed candidate to discover next-generation cathode materials that can enable the design of practical and commercially viable Mg batteries.

Abstract
Mg-S batteries hold great promise as a potential alternative to Li-based technologies. Their further development hinges on solving a few key challenges, including the lower capacity and poorer cycling performance when compared to Li counterparts. At the heart of the issues is the lack of knowledge on polysulfide chemical behaviors in the Mg-S battery environment. In this Review, a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of polysulfide behaviors in Mg-S batteries is provided. First, a systematic summary of experimental and computational techniques for polysulfide characterization is provided. Next, conversion pathways for Mg polysulfide species within the battery environment are discussed, highlighting the important role of polysulfide solubility in determining reaction kinetics and overall battery performance. The focus then shifts to the negative effects of polysulfide shuttling on Mg-S batteries. The authors outline various strategies for achieving an optimal balance between polysulfide solubility and shuttling, including the use of electrolyte additives, polysulfide-trapping materials, and dual-functional catalysts. Based on the current understanding, the directions for further advancing knowledge of Mg polysulfide chemistry are identified, emphasizing the integration of experiment with computation as a powerful approach to accelerate the development of Mg-S battery technology.

Abstract
Li-ion batteries have held the dominant position in battery research for the last 30+ years. However, due to inadequate resources and the cost of necessary elements (e.g., lithium ore) in addition to safety issues concerning the components and construction, it has become more important to look at alternative technologies. Multivalent metal batteries with solid-state electrolytes are a potential option for future battery applications. The synthesis and characterisation of divalent hydrated closo-monocarborane salts - Mg[CB11H12]2·xH2O, Ca[CB11H12]2·xH2O, and Zn[CB11H12]2·xH2O - have shown potential as solid-state electrolytes. The coordination of a solvent (e.g. H2O) to the cation in these complexes shows a significant improvement in ionic conductivity, i.e. for Zn[CB11H12]2·xH2O dried at 100 °C (10-3 S cm-1 at 170 °C) and dried at 150 °C (10-5 S cm-1 at 170 °C). Solvent choice also proved important with the ionic conductivity of Mg[CB11H12]2·3en (en = ethylenediamine) being higher than that of Mg[CB11H12]2·3.1H2O (2.6 × 10-5 S cm-1 and 1.7 × 10-8 S cm-1 at 100 °C, respectively), however, the oxidative stability was lower (<1 V (Mg2+/Mg) and 1.9 V (Mg2+/Mg), respectively). Thermal characterisation of the divalent closo-monocarborane salts showed melting and desolvation, prior to high temperature decomposition.

Abstract
Rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) have been considered as one of the most viable battery chemistries amongst the "post" lithium-ion battery (LIB) technologies owing to their high volumetric capacity and the natural abundance of their key elements. The fundamental properties of Mg-ion conducting electrolytes are of essence to regulate the overall performance of RMBs. In this Review, the basic electrochemistry of Mg-ion conducting electrolytes batteries is discussed and compared to that of the Li-ion conducting electrolytes, and a comprehensive overview of the development of different Mg-ion conducting electrolytes is provided. In addition, the remaining challenges and possible solutions for future research are intensively discussed. The present work is expected to give an impetus to inspire the discovery of key electrolytes and thereby improve the electrochemical performances of RMBs and other related emerging battery technologies.

Abstract
Realization of practical sodium metal batteries (SMBs) is hindered due to lack of compatible electrolyte components, dendrite propagation, and poor understanding of anodic interphasial chemistries. Chemically robust liquid electrolytes that facilitate both favorable sodium metal deposition and a stable solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) are ideal to enable sodium metal and anode-free cells. Herein we present advanced characterization of a novel fluorine-free electrolyte utilizing the [HCB11 H11 ]1- anion. Symmetrical Na cells operated with this electrolyte exhibit a remarkably low overpotential of 0.032 V at a current density of 2.0 mA cm-2 and a high coulombic efficiency of 99.5 % in half-cell configurations. Surface characterization of electrodes post-operation reveals the absence of dendritic sodium nucleation and a surprisingly stable fluorine-free SEI. Furthermore, weak ion-pairing is identified as key towards the successful development of fluorine-free sodium electrolytes.

Abstract
A new deposition mechanism is presented in this study to achieve highly reversible plating and stripping of magnesium (Mg) anodes for Mg-ion batteries. It is known that the reduction of electrolyte anions such as bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TFSI-) causes Mg surface passivation, resulting in poor electrochemical performance for Mg-ion batteries. We reveal that the addition of sodium cations (Na+) in Mg-ion electrolytes can fundamentally alter the interfacial chemistry and structure at the Mg anode surface. The molecular dynamics simulation suggests that Na+ cations contribute to a significant population in the interfacial double layer so that TFSI- anions are excluded from the immediate interface adjacent to the Mg anode. As a result, the TFSI- decomposition is largely suppressed so does the formation of passivation layers at the Mg surface. This mechanism is supported by our electrochemical, microscopic, and spectroscopic analyses. The resultant Mg deposition demonstrates smooth surface morphology and lowered overpotential compared to the pure Mg(TFSI)2 electrolyte.

o-Carboryne (1,2-dehydro-o-carborane) is a very useful synthon for the synthesis of a variety of carborane-functionalized molecules. With 1-Li-2-OTf-o-C2B10H10 as the precursor, o-carboryne undergoes an efficient [4 + 2] cycloaddition with various conjugated enynes, followed by a subsequent [2 + 2] cycloaddition at room temperature, generating a series of carborane-fused tricyclo[6.4.0.02,7]dodeca-2,12-dienes in moderate to high isolated yields. This reaction is compatible with many functional groups and has a broad substrate scope. A reactive carborane-fused 1,2-cyclohexadiene intermediate is involved, which is supported by experimental results and DFT calculations. This protocol offers a convenient strategy for the construction of complex carborane-functionalized tricyclics. An unprecedented tandem [4 + 2]/[2 + 2] cycloaddition of o-carboryne with enynes has been disclosed for the efficient synthesis of various carborane-fused tricyclics, in which a reactive carborane-fused 1,2-cyclohexadiene intermediate is involved.![]()

Abstract
Mg batteries are attractive next-generation energy storage systems due to their high natural abundance, inexpensive cost, and high theoretical capacity compared to conventional Li-ion based systems. The high energy density is achieved by electrodeposition and stripping of a Mg metal anode and requires the development of effective electrolytes enabled by a mechanistic understanding of the charge-transfer mechanism. The magnesium aluminum chloride complex (MACC) electrolyte is a good model system to study the mechanism as the solution phase speciation is known. Previously, we reported that minor addition of Mg(HMDS)2 to the MACC electrolyte causes significant improvement in the Mg deposition and stripping voltammetry resulting in good Coulombic efficiency on cycle one and, therefore, negating the need for electrochemical conditioning. To determine the cause of the improved electrochemistry, here we probe the speciation of the electrolyte after Mg(HMDS)2 addition using Raman spectroscopy, 27Al nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and 1H-29Si heteronuclear multiple bond correlation spectroscopy on MACC + Mg(HMDS)2 at various Mg(HMDS)2 concentrations. Mg(HMDS)2 scavenges trace H2O, but it also reacts with MACC complexes, namely, AlCl4-, to form free Cl-. We suggest that although both the removal of H2O and the formation of free Cl- improve electrochemistry by altering the speciation at the interface, the latter has a profound effect on electrodeposition and stripping of Mg.

Abstract
C(1)-vinylation of [closo-1-CB9 H10 ]- (A) and [closo-1-CB11 H12 ]- (B) with 4-benzyloxystyryl iodide followed by hydrogenation of the double bond and reductive deprotection of the phenol functionality led to C(1)-(4-hydroxyphenethyl) derivatives. The phenol functionality was protected as the acetate. The esters were then treated with PhI(OAc)2 and the resulting isomers were separated kinetically (for derivatives of anion A) or by chromatography (for derivatives of anion B) giving the difunctionalized building blocks in overall yields of 9 % and 50 %, respectively. A similar series of reactions was performed starting with anions A and B and 4-methoxystyryl bromide and iodide. Significant differences in the reactivity of derivatives of the two carborane anions were rationalized with DFT computational results. Application of the difunctionalized carboranes as building blocks was demonstrated through preparation of two ionic liquid crystals. The extensive synthetic work is accompanied by single crystal XRD analysis of six derivatives.

Abstract
A transition-metal-free coupling protocol between iodocarboranes and terminal alkynes enabled by light at room temperature has been developed, leading to the synthesis of a variety of 1-alkynyl-o-carboranes. Moreover, following this strategy, the introduction of 1-I-3-aryl-o-carboranes or 1-I-2-aryl-o-carboranes results in the formation of o-carborane-fused cyclics. Interestingly, when 1-I-3-(p-R-C6H4)-o-carboranes are chosen as coupling partners, unexpected R-group migration products are also isolated. On the basis of the results of control experiments and isolation of the key intermediates, a possible reaction mechanism is then proposed, involving the formation of spiro radical species.

Abstract
The high anodic stability of electrolytes for rechargeable magnesium batteries enables the use of new positive electrodes, which can contribute to an increase in energy density. In this study, novel Ph3COMgCl-, Ph3SiOMgCl-, and B(OMgCl)3-based electrolytes were prepared with AlCl3 in triglyme. The Ph3COMgCl-based electrolyte showed anodic stability over 3.0 V vs. Mg but was chemically unstable, whereas the Ph3SiOMgCl-based electrolyte was chemically stable but featured lower anodic stability than the Ph3COMgCl-based electrolyte. Advantageously, the B(OMgCl)3-based electrolyte showed both anodic stability over 3.0 V vs. Mg (possibly due to the Lewis acidic nature of B in B(OMgCl)3) and chemical stability (possibly due to the hard acid character of B(OMgCl)3). B(OMgCl)3, which was prepared by reacting boric acid with a Grignard reagent, was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The above analyses showed that B(OMgCl)3 has a complex structure featuring coordinated tetrahydrofuran molecules. 27Al NMR spectroscopy and Al K-edge XAS showed that when B(OMgCl)3 was present in the electrolyte, AlCl3 and AlCl2+ species were converted to AlCl4-. Mg K-edge XAS showed that the Mg species in B(OMgCl)3-based electrolytes are electrochemically positive. As a rechargeable magnesium battery, the full cell using the B(OMgCl)3-based electrolyte and a Mo6S8 Chevrel phase cathode showed stable charge-discharge cycles. Thus, B(OMgCl)3-based electrolytes, the anodic stability of which can be increased to ~3 V by the use of appropriate battery materials, are well suited for the development of practical Mg battery cathodes.

Abstract
An essential requirement for electrolytes in rechargeable magnesium-ion (Mg-ion) batteries is to enable Mg plating-stripping with low overpotential and high Coulombic efficiency. To date, the influence of the Mg/electrolyte interphase on plating and stripping behaviors is still not well understood. In this study, we investigate the Mg/electrolyte interphase from electrolytes based on two Mg salts with weakly coordinating anions: magnesium monocarborane (Mg(CB11H12)2) and magnesium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (Mg(TFSI)2). Cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry of Mg plating-stripping demonstrate significantly lower overpotential in the Mg(CB11H12)2 electrolyte than in Mg(TFSI)2 under the same condition. Surface characterizations including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy clearly demonstrate the superior chemical and electrochemical stability of the Mg(CB11H12)2 electrolyte at the Mg surface without noticeable interphase formation. On the other hand, characterizations of the Mg/electrolyte interface in the Mg(TFSI)2 electrolyte indicate the formation of magnesium oxide, magnesium sulfide, and magnesium fluoride as the interfacial compounds resulting from the decomposition of TFSI- anions because of both chemical reduction by Mg and cathodic reduction during Mg deposition.

Abstract
Mg batteries are a promising energy storage system because of the physicochemical merits of Mg as an anode material. However, the lack of electrochemically and chemically stable Mg electrolytes impedes the development of Mg batteries. In this study, a newly designed chloride-free Mg perfluorinated pinacolatoborate, Mg[B(O2 C2 (CF3 )4 )2 ]2 (abbreviated as Mg-FPB), was synthesized by a convenient method from commercially available reagents and fully characterized. The Mg-FPB electrolyte delivered outstanding electrochemical performance, specifically, 95 % Coulombic efficiency and 197 mV overpotential, enabling reversible Mg deposition, and an anodic stability of up to 4.0 V vs. Mg. The Mg-FPB electrolyte was applied to assemble a high voltage, rechargeable Mg/MnO2 battery with a discharge capacity of 150 mAh g-1 .

Abstract
Classically closo-carborane anions, particularly [HCB11H11]- and [HCB9H9]-, and their derivatives have primarily been used as weakly coordinating anions to isolate reactive intermediates, platforms for stoichiometric and catalytic functionalization, counteranions for simple Lewis acid catalysis, and components of materials like liquid crystals. The aim of this article is to educate the reader on the contemporary nonclassical applications of these anions. Specifically, this review will cover new directions in main group catalysis utilized to achieve some of the most challenging catalytic reactions such as C-F, C-H, and C-C functionalizations that are difficult or impossible to realize with transition metals. In addition, the review will cover the utilization of the clusters as dianionic C σ-bound ligands for coordination chemistry, ligand substituents for coordination chemistry and advanced catalyst design, and covalently bound spectator substituents to stabilize radicals. Furthermore, their applications as solution-based and solid-state electrolytes for Li, Na, and Mg batteries will be discussed.

Abstract
Rechargeable magnesium (Mg) batteries are an attractive candidate for next-generation battery technology because of their potential to offer high energy density, low cost, and safe use. Despite recent substantial progress achieved in the development of efficient electrolytes, identifying high-performance cathode materials remains a bottleneck for the realization of practical Mg batteries. Due to the strong interaction between the doubly charged Mg2+ ions and the host matrix, most of the conventional intercalation cathodes suffer from low capacity, high voltage hysteresis, and low energy density in Mg based battery systems. Alternatively, the thermodynamically favorable conversion reaction may circumvent the sluggish Mg2+ diffusion kinetics. In this review, the focus will be laid on promising cathodes beyond the typical intercalation-type materials. We will give an overview of the recent emerging Mg systems with conversion-type and organic cathodes.

Abstract
Carboranes are boron-rich molecular clusters possessing electronic characteristics that allow for orthogonal approaches to vertex-selective modifications. We report improved functionalization methods utilizing orthogonal chemistry to achieve efficient substitution at electron-rich B-vertices and electron-poor C-vertices of carborane. Functionalization of B-vertices with alkyl and (hetero)aryl groups using the corresponding Grignard reagents has been improved through the use of a Pd-based precatalyst featuring an electron-rich biaryl phosphine ligand, resulting in reduced reaction times. Importantly, this method is tolerant towards alkyl-based Grignard reagents containing β-hydrogens. Furthermore, a transition metal-free approach to the substitution of carborane C-vertices with (hetero)aryl substrates has been developed under nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) conditions. The selective substitution of carboranes afforded by these methods holds potential for the rational synthesis of heterofunctionalized boron clusters with substituents on both boron and carbon-based vertices.

Abstract
The preparation of the carborane acid chloride [1-(COCl)–CB11H11]− from the carboxylic acid [1-(COOH)–CB11H11]− is reported. This acid chloride exhibits remarkable inertness towards moisture and can be stored under ambient conditions for several months. Reaction with amines affords secondary and tertiary carborane amides [1-(CONR1R2)–CB11H11]− in moderate to high yields under mild conditions. Two of the amide products were characterized by X-ray crystallography in addition to spectroscopic analysis. Preliminary studies show that the amides can be reduced to the corresponding amines and that the acid chloride has the potential to serve as a starting material for carborane ester formation. The preparation of the carborane acid chloride [1-(COCl)–CB11H11]− from the carboxylic acid [1-(COOH)–CB11H11]− and subsequent amide formation are reported.![]()

Abstract
The preparation and full characterization of an iridium complex of the monocarba-closo-dodecaborate anion is reported. It was prepared by B-H bond activation using a tosyl amide directing group. Analysis by spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallography revealed the presence a direct B-Ir interaction. The carborane acts as a B,N chelating ligand towards the Ir(Cp*)(solvent) fragment, resulting in a monomeric complex that is inert in solution and the solid state. Treatment with N-chlorosuccinimide resulted in selective monochlorination of the B-Ir position. In addition, its structure, spectroscopic features and reactivity were investigated by DFT calculations.

Abstract
Photoarylation of iodocarboranes with unactivated arenes/heteroarenes at room temperature has been achieved, for the first time, thus leading to the facile synthesis of a large variety of cage carbon mono(hetero)arylated and di(hetero)arylated o-carboranes. This work represents a clean, efficient, transition-metal-free, and cheap synthesis of functionalized carboranes, which has significant advantages over the known methods.

Abstract
The first example of a transition metal (BB)-carboryne complex containing two boron atoms of the icosahedral cage connected to a single exohedral metal center (POBBOP)Ru(CO)2 (POBBOP = 1,7-OP(i-Pr)2-2,6-dehydro-m-carborane) was synthesized by double B-H activation within the strained m-carboranyl pincer framework. Theoretical calculations revealed that the unique three-membered (BB)>Ru metalacycle is formed by two bent B-Ru σ-bonds with the concomitant increase of the bond order between the two metalated boron atoms. The reactivity of the highly strained electron-rich (BB)-carboryne fragment with small molecules was probed by reactions with electrophiles. The carboryne-carboranyl transformations reported herein represent a new mode of cooperative metal-ligand reactivity of boron-based complexes.
