A green, fast and selective approach for the synthesis of mono-substituted <i>closo</i>-decaborate derivatives [2-B<sub>10</sub>H<sub>9</sub>COR]<sup>2-</sup> has been established via a nucleophilic addition reaction between the carbonyl derivative of <i>closo</i>-decaborate [2-B<sub>10</sub>H<sub>9</sub>CO]<sup>-</sup> and the corresponding Grignard reagent RMgX, where R is the ethyl, iso-propyl, pentyl, allyl, vinyl and propynyl groups. This approach is accomplished under mild conditions with ...[more]
