Presented here is a note for the preparation of two new o-R(Ar) OCH
2CB
10 H
10CH
2O(Ar)R

compounds by treating B
10H
12 [(C

2S]
2 with R(Ar) OCH
2C = CCH
2O(Ar)R. Through this synthesis, the scope of application of the direct synthesis of substituted o-carborane derivatives from RC≡CR compounds has been enlarged.
