Abstract: The structure of the title compound, [Dy(C₈H₂₂B₄Si₂)Cl(C₆H₁₆N₂)], reveals that a center of symmetry exists within the dimeric half-sandwich units. Within each half-sandwich, the Dy^III ion is coordinated by the five-membered ring of the carborane, tetramethylethylenediamine and the chloride ion.
