The role of carborane clusters in organometallic chemistry is diverse. A number of carborane cage systems such as C(2)B(4), C(2)B(9) and C(2)B(10) clusters have been extensively used for the synthesis of numerous metallacarboranes of s, p, d and f-block elements. An introduction to the chemistry of metallacarboranes is provided with an emphasis on the recent advances on the metallacarboranes of f-block elements.
