Paragraph 0035; 0043-0044, (2018/02/04)
New methods are provided for synthesis of ClusterBoron (B18H22). Preferred methods of the invention include generation of the conjugate acid of B20H182? and degradation of the acid in solution to produce B18H22 in high yields and high purity. The invention further provides isotopically enriched boranes, particularly isotopically enriched 10B18H22 and 11B18H22.

Simple iodine oxidation of the B9H12- anion in toluene at room temperature reliably gives excellent yields (~80%) of n-B18H22 (anti-B18H22) and thus provides a convenient, large-scale, safe route to this important polyborane cluster.
