Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: The molecular structure of the title compound 1-(2′,3′,5′,6′-tetrafluoro-4′-trifluoromethylphenyl)-closo-1,2-dicarbadodecaborane, C9H11B10F7, features an intramolecular ortho-F...H2 hydrogen bond [2.11 (2) Å], which is responsible for an orientation of the heptafluorotolyl substituent in which the plane of the aryl ring nearly eclipses the C1—C2 cage connectivity.
