<Narayan Sadashiv Hosmane> coauthored synthetic routes to small <nido carboranes> using borane-derived starting materials and Lewis-base adducts. The work connects <boron>-hydride chemistry with incorporation of carbon into an open cluster framework.
A carborane is specified by both its vertex inventory and its cage connectivity. Retaining a small open cage differs from simply producing any compound with the same elemental ingredients.<Improved Synthetic Routes to Small Carboranes: Bench-Scale Preparation of nido-2,3-C2B4H8 Derivatives from B5H9 and from B3H8- Salts by Narayan S. Hosmane and Russell N. Grimes>[Primary abstract: borane–Lewis-base adduct route]{ref}
