Counterion-Induced Aggregation of Metallacarboranes
The model of counterion-induced metallacarborane aggregation in water was verified on sodium bis(1,2-dicarbollide), one of the most studied examples of metallacarboranes. This case study introduces a novel approach in anionic boron cluster self-assembly that resembles the behavior of polyoxometalate nanoions.
