Electroreduction of the C 6 Me 6 ‐ isocloso ‐ruthenaborane complex {(C 6 Me 6 )‐ isocloso ‐1‐RuB 10 H 10 } has been investigated using cyclic voltammetry, convolutive voltammetry, chronoamperometry and chronopotentiometry techniques at a glassy carbon electrode in 0.1 mol·L −1 tetrabutyl ammonium perchlorate dissolved in methylene chloride. The investigated complex has been reduced via the consumption of two sequential electrons leading to the formation of monoanion and dianion, respectively. The electrode reaction pathway and the electrochemical parameters of the investigated system were determined. The extracted electrochemical parameters were verified via digital simulation treatments. Diffusion coefficient and heterogeneous electron transfer kinetics of the {(C 6 Me 6 )‐ isocloso ‐1‐RuB 10 H 10 } complex at low temperature were studied and discussed.
