Dicarbollide

Dicarbollide refers to a class of chemical compounds that consist of two carborane units, which are polyhedral boron compounds characterized by the presence of carbon atoms in a boron cage structure. The most well-known example of a dicarbollide is the dicarbollide anion, specifically the 1,2-dicarbadodecaborate anion (often represented as [C2B10H12]²⁻).
