Electronic Considerations in Metalloboranes.
Abstract
A 2n + 14 electron rule is proposed for closo n-vertex polyhedral heteroboranes containing one transition metal vertex. Nido polyhedra of this type require 2n + 16 electrons while closo polyhedra with two transition metal vertices require 2n + 26 electrons. The application and chemical consequences of these proposals are discussed. (Author)
