Synthesis and some reactions of 3-(Phenyl-o-carboranyl)indan-1-one

Abstract

3-(Phenyl-o-carboranyl)indan-1-one was synthesized, and its reactions with sodium ethoxide, potassium hydroxide, and primary and secondary amines in various media were studied. Preparative procedures for the synthesis of a series of previously unknown o-carborane derivatives were thus developed.
