Forced
exo-nido rhoda and ruthenacarboranes containing monothio and monophosphinocarboranes have been tested as catalyst precursors in different catalytic reactions. The catalyst precursors employed were [Rh(7-SR-8-R′-7,8-C

2] (R=Ph, Et; R′=Me, Ph). These complexes are obtained by the reaction of the tetramethylammonium or cesium salt of the
nido ligand with Rh(I) or Ru(II) complexes incorporating ancillary ligands. Although two molecular structures are possible, the
closo and the
exo-nido, only the
exo-nido tautomer is generally formed. The cluster is coordinated to the metal through the S or P atom and one or two B–H–M interactions, depending on the metal. These
exo-nido rhoda and ruthenacarboranes have been shown to catalyze in very good yield the hydrogenation of terminal alkenes but they are not active in the hydrogenation of internal alkenes. Both rhoda-monothio and monophosphinocarboranes present comparable activity at
P=45 bar and
T=66°C, in the hydrogenation and isomerization of 1-hexene. However, while the monothioether precursors are active at
P=1 atm and
T=25°C, the monophosphino exhibited a very low activity. Ruthenamonophosphinocarboranes are also active in the hydrogenation of 1-hexene, with a higher selectivity that the respective rhodacarboranes. On the other hand, [Rh(7-PPh

exo-nido rhoda and ruthenacarboranes displayed a very low activity in the hydrogenation of internal alkenes, however, the
closo species [

10)(cod)] were very efficient catalysts in the hydrogenation of cyclohexene exhibiting higher activity than the parent
exo-nido isomers. In addition to hydrogenation,
exo-nido rhoda and ruthenamonothio and monophosphinocarboranes have also been tested as catalyst precursors in the insertion of carbenes to CC and O–H bonds. The rhodamonophosphinocarboranes exhibited a high activity and similar stereoselectivity for the cyclopropanation of olefines (80–90%) and represent the first example of Rh(I) cyclopropanation catalysts. Furthermore, ruthenacarboranes are excellent cyclopropanation catalysts for activated olefins such as styrene and their derivatives while the cyclopropane yields were lower for cyclic olefins and terminal linear monoolefines
