[Et4N][7‐Me2S‐nido‐B11H12]

Tetraethyl­ammonium 7‐di­methyl­sulfanyl‐nido‐dodeca­hydro­undecaborate, Et₄N]7‐Me₂S‐nido‐B₁₁H₁₂] or C₈H₂₀N⁺·C₂H₁₈B₁₁S^?, is a product of the deprotonation of 7‐Me₂S‐nido‐B₁₁H₁₃] with KHBEt₃ and precipitation with tetraethyl­ammonium chloride. The effect of removing one endo‐terminal H atom is to cause a general contraction of the open‐face B—B distances.
