How long a C-C bond can be? A question has long fascinated chemists. This work reports an example of extraordinary long C-C bond distance of 1.990(4) Å observed in single-crystal X-ray structure of 1, 2-(NHMes)₂-o-carborane (2; Mes=2, 4, 6-trimethylphenyl). DFT calculations show that hyperconjugation of lone pairs of the nitrogen atoms into the empty σ^* orbital of the cage C-C bond is the origin of the bond elongation. Such hyperconjugation can be suppressed if the two nitrogen atoms in 2 are linked to a Lewis acidic germanium (Ⅱ) center.
