TL;DR: In this paper, the structures of 1-Me-2-COOH-1,2-closo-C2B10H10 (1), 1-Ph-2COPh-1 2 -closest-to-the-surface COOH substituents were determined by X-ray crystallography.

TL;DR: Symmetric 4,5,2,3-M(2)C( 2)B(9) 13-vertex bimetallacarboranes of cobalt and ruthenium with 14 skeletal electron pairs are afforded by reduction and metallation of 3,1,2-MC(2]B( 9) icosahedra.

TL;DR: Two diorganotin(IV) complexes of the general formula R2Sn[Ph(O)C CH-C(Me) N-C6H4(O)] (R = Ph, 1a; R = Me, 1b) have been synthesized from the corresponding DIN dichlorides and the ligand, 3-(2-hydroxyphenyhenylimino)-1-phenylbutan-1-one (1) in methanol at room temperature in presence of triethylamine as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the crystal structure of 3 shows a Rh-Rh single bond and one of the three terminal nitrile ligands axially attached to the bipy-bound rhodium atom.

TL;DR: Density functional theory calculations have been carried out to gain additional insights into the metal and ligand orbitals participating in this unusual structure and interestingly the copper ions involved in OCN-Cu(I)-NCO links possess a linear 2-coordinate geometry.
