The first nickelacarborane with <i>closo-nido</i> structure [10',11'-(Py)<sub>2</sub>-3,9'-Ni(1,2-C<sub>2</sub>B<sub>9</sub>H<sub>11</sub>)(7',8'-C<sub>2</sub>B<sub>8</sub>H<sub>8</sub>)] was isolated from the reaction of nickel(IV) bis(dicarbollide) with pyridine. The molecular structure of this complex was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The nickel atom is a common vertex for the <i>closo</i>-NiC<sub>2</sub>B<sub>9</sub> cluster and the <i>nido</i>-NC<sub>2</sub>B<sub>8</sub> c ...[more]
