Abstract:	Increasingly pronounced hydrocarbon character is exhibited by C₆H₆B₁₂, the first unsubstituted hexacarbaborane, and CH₃C₅B₇H₁₂, the first cluster pentacarbaborane. These compounds shed light on the structural dichotomy between open hydrocarbon skeletons and polyhedral borane frameworks for high-carbon carboranes.
