1,2‐Bis­(methylsulfanyl)‐1,2‐dicarba‐closo‐dodecaborane(12)

In the title compound, 1,2‐(SCH₃)₂‐1,2‐closo‐C₂B₁₀H₁₀ or C₄H₁₆B₁₀S₂, the methylsulfanyl groups are bonded to the C atoms of the 1,2‐dicarba‐closo‐dodecaborane cage. The C_cage—C_cage distance is 1.8033 (18) Å and the S—C_cage—C_cage—S torsion angle is 1.07 (13)°. The C_cage—C_cage distance is compared with those in other 1,2‐dicarba‐closo‐dodecaborane derivatives.
