Octadecaborane(22), B18H22, is a polynuclear borane used in the semiconductor industry.
It is structurally related to decaborane(14): the structure can be viewed as two fused arachno-decaborane units. The usual form of octadecaborane(22) is the anti-fused structure, also referred to as n-B18H22.[1]
It was originally prepared from the B20H182− anion,[2] but a more convenient method is the oxidation of the B9H12− cluster, for example with iodine in toluene solution.[3][4]
Octadecaborane(22) can be deprotonated to the B18H21− anion: this will react with borane—dimethyl sulfide to give B19H22−, which can be degraded with formaldehyde to an equimolar mixture of syn- and anti-B18H22, effectively allowing the interconversion of the two isomers.[5]
