Zinc-Group Element-Stabilized Boron Analogues of Cyclopropenyl Cation Featuring π Aromaticity
Planar boron clusters often display π-bonding patterns analogous to those found in aromatic hydrocarbons, making them intriguing inorganic counterparts of classical hydrocarbon systems. Herein, we report zinc-group element-stabilized boron analogues of the cyclopropenyl cation (C3H3+), formulated as M3B3+ (M = Zn, Cd...
