Abstract

New carborane anions carrying one or three triflyloxy substituents are described. The mono-triflyloxy substituted carborane can be halogenated to give pentabromo and decachloro derivatives with preservation of the B–OTf linkage. The use of [HCB11Cl10OTf]−as a weakly coordinating anion is demonstrated.
