A nickel-catalyzed arylation at the carbon center of o-carborane cages has been developed, thus leading to the preparation of a series of 1-aryl-o-carboranes and 1,2-diaryl-o-carboranes in high yields upon isolation. This method represents the first example of transition metal catalyzed C,C'-diarylation by cross-coupling reactions of o-carboranyl with aryl iodides.
发展了一种镍催化的 o-碳硼烷笼碳原子芳基化反应，通过该方法可以高产率得到一系列 1-芳基-o-碳硼烷和 1,2-二芳基-o-碳硼烷。该方法代表了首例通过 o-碳硼烷与芳基碘的交叉偶联反应实现的过渡金属催化的 C,C'-二芳基化反应。
