Iridium-catalysed regioselective borylation of carboranes via direct B–H activation
Nature Communications, 2017 Functionalization of the multiple, similar, boron-hydrogen bonds in carboranes is difficult to achieve with selectivity. Here the authors report an iridium-catalysed borylation ofo-carboranes with high yields and regioselectivities.

Carborane-Based Analog of Rev-5901 Attenuates Growth of Colon Carcinoma In Vivo
Molecules, 2022 Lipoxygenases convert polyunsaturated fatty acids into biologically active metabolites such as inflammatory mediators—prostaglandins and leukotrienes. The inhibition of lipoxygenases is increasingly employed in the treatment of cancer.

1,7‐Digallatetracarborane: Between Nucleophilic closo‐Cluster and “Inverse Sandwich” Digallylene
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A dianionic π‐ligand is used to make a Janus‐type twofold complex with low‐valent gallium Ga(+I). The resulting compound can be seen as and reveals the reactivity of both: a Wade‐type closo‐carborane cluster with nucleophilic Ga‐sites, as well as π‐ligand stabilized Ga(I) atoms in an inverse sandwich compound.
