DESCRIPTION:Carboranes are a class of polyhedral boron hydride clusters in 
 which one or more of the BH vertices are replaced by CH units. They consti
 tute a class of structurally unique molecules with exceptionally thermal a
 nd chemical stabilities and the ability to hold various substituents. Thes
 e properties have made them useful basic units in supramolecular design\, 
 medicine\, catalysts and materials. However\, their unique structures make
  derivatization difficult\, resulting in a limited application scope. Thus
 \, it is important and necessary to develop new methodologies for the func
 tionalization of carboranes. Inspired by transition metal catalyzed C-C/C-
 B bond forming reactions via benzene C-H activation and our earlier work o
 n transition metal mediated multicomponent cross-cycloaddition for the pre
 paration of benzocarboranes\, we have developed transition metal catalyzed
  regioselective direct cage B-H alkenylation\, arylation and alkynylation 
 of o-carboranes. These results will be discussed in this presentation.[1-5
