Abstract
Sterically hindered phosphine and arsine ligands derived from ortho-carborane were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography. Tris(1'-methyl(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl))phosphine, 2 (crystal data, hexagonal, space group P6(3), a = b = 12.251(3) A, c = 11.514(4) A, alpha = beta = 90 degrees, gamma = 120 degrees, V = 1496.6(7) A(3), Z = 2, R(1) = 0.0568) and tris(1'-methyl(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl))arsine, 3 (crystal data, hexagonal, space group P6(3), a = b = 12.330(3) A, c = 11.474(4) A, alpha = beta = 90 degrees, gamma = 120 degrees, V = 1510.7(7) A(3), Z = 2, R(1) = 0.0930) were prepared in 82% and 68% yield, respectively. The phosphine ligand is resistant to air-oxidation but was converted to corresponding oxide when heated with hydrogen peroxide. The tertiary carboranyl phosphine reacted with (Tht)AuCl to yield chloro(tris(1'-methyl(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl))phosphine)gold(I), 4 (crystal data, monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c, a = 19.101(4) A, b = 12.167(2) A, c = 13.846(3) A, alpha = gamma = 90 degrees, beta = 91.13(3) degrees, V = 3217.2(11) A(3), Z = 4, R(1) = 0.0396) in 82% yield. From the X-ray structure of the gold complex, the cone angle of the phosphine was determined to be 213(2) degrees, which is among the largest values reported to date.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
