Transition metal-mediated B–H functionalization of carboranes has drawn increasing interests during the last two decades. This review describes how to incorporate B–H functionalization into the derivation of half-sandwich transition metal complexes containing o-carborane dichalcogenolates. The detailed mechanistic elucidations for metal-induced versatile B–H functionalization are also reviewed. Examples of selective B–H activation, stepwise B–H functionalization, cobalt-mediated B–H functionalization as well as dimetal-mediated B–H activation of o-carborane are discussed.

过渡金属诱导的邻碳氢化合物的B–H官能化

在过去的二十年中，过渡金属介导的硼烷硼氢化官能化引起了越来越多的兴趣。这篇综述描述了如何将B–H官能化结合到包含邻碳二烷二卤代碳酸氢盐的半三明治过渡金属配合物中。还对金属诱导的多功能B–H功能化的详细机理进行了综述。讨论了选择性B–H活化，逐步B–H官能化，钴介导的B–H官能化以及双金属介导的邻甲硼烷的B–H活化的实例。
