AI Article Synopsis
- - The global minima M©BO (where M = Nickel, Palladium, or Platinum) have a unique stability due to their σ-aromaticity in the BM core region.
- - This σ-aromaticity results from strong π back-bonding from oxygen to boron, allowing for a more localized interaction.
- - As a consequence, the delocalized π back-bonding from the metal (M) to boron is less favorable compared to the localized bonding, affecting the overall stability.
Article Abstract
The dynamically stable global minima M©BO (M = Ni, Pd, Pt) are interesting in that they possess σ-aromaticity alone within the BM core moiety, which can be attributed to the strong peripheral localized O → B π back-bonding that leads to the less favourable delocalized M → B π back-bonding over the BM core moiety.
