Boranes description |
---|
Boranes are a large group of group-13 hydride compounds that have the generic formula BxHy. Because of the high affinity of boron for oxygen, these compounds do not occur in nature. Many of the boranes readily oxidise on contact with air; the lighter boranes explode. The class derives from "borane" itself, chemical formula BH3. This compound exists only as a transient intermediate; it dimerises to form diborane, B2H6. The larger boranes all consist of boron clusters that are polyhedral. In addition to the charge-neutral boranes, a large number of anionic boron hydrides exist. The most important boranes are diborane B2H6 and two of its pyrolysis products, pentaborane B5H9 and decaborane B10H14. The boron hydrides led to new experimental techniques and theoretical concepts. Boron hydrides have been studied as potential fuels for rockets and for automotive uses, but the only commercial applications involve derivatives of borane. |
