In the title compound, C4H22B20, the two {1,7-closo-C2B10H11} cages are linked across a centre of inversion, with C-C = 1.5401 (16) Å. The position of the second non-linking cage C atom was established unambiguously by geometric and crystallographic methods and there is no evidence of C/B disorder.
