The deprotonation of S2B17H17 with sodium hydride and subsequent reaction with [PtCl2(PMe2Ph)2] gives the new macropolyhedral metallathiaborane [(PMe2Ph)2PtS2B16H16], of which the cluster consists of a conventional eleven-vertex nido {SB10} unit, fused, with two boron atoms in common, with a {PtSB8} unit of unique ten-vertex neo-arachno constitution and geometry. The latter geometry suggests a configuration for the previously structurally uncharacterised [B10H15]- anion; starting from this configuration, DFT calculations of structure and thence of boron nuclear shieldings, which are found very closely to mimic those found experimentally, thence support a fluxional structure for [B10H15]- with three {BHB(bridging)} and two {BH(endo)} hydrogen atoms around a six-membered open face.
