Popis: We report herein the first example of the controlled isomerisation of a C,Cʹ-bound (to metal) bis(ortho-carborane) ligand to C,Bʹ-bound with no other change in the molecule. Since the C and B vertices of carboranes have different electron-donating properties this transformation allows the reactivity of the metal centre to be fine-tuned.
