Molecular Wheel B82- as a New Inorganic Ligand. Photoelectron Spectroscopy and ab Initio Characterization of LiB8-
Abstract
The bare B(8) cluster was previously reported to be a D(7h) molecular wheel with a triplet group state. The B(8)(2-) dianion was predicted to be a closed-shell singlet and double aromatic D(7h) molecular wheel. Here we report the experimental observation of B(8)(2-) stabilized by a Li(+) cation in LiB(8)(-) and its experimental characterization using photoelectron spectroscopy. Theoretical searches lead to a C(7v) LiB(8)(-) global minimum structure, and its calculated photodetachment transitions are in good agreement with the experimental values. Except for a small out-of-plane distortion due to the asymmetric Li(+) capping, the B(8)(2-) unit in LiB(8)(-) is nearly identical to the bare B(8)(2-), suggesting it is a robust and stable structural unit and may be used as a new ligand and building block in chemistry.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
