National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Preparation, Isolation and Structure of B8H12.

AD447710

Publication Date	1964
Personal Author	Enrione, R. E.; Boer, F. P.; Lipscomb, W. N.
Page Count	8
Abstract	One of the important predictions of the valence theory of boron hydrides is the existence of B8H12 and its structural possibilities. The isolation is reported of this thermally unstable material in pure crystal-line form in small yields from the electric discharge of a mixture of diborane-6 and pentaborane-9, and the proof of chemical composition and structural formula from a complete three-dimensional X-ray diffraction study of single crystals at low temperatures.
