Extensive DFT calculations have also been carried out in order to establish the basic knowledge on the electronic structures and bonding patterns of these... 

Before exploring other areas to which the borane-carborane structural and bonding pattern is relevant, it is useful to summarize the main features, as follows. 

The foregoing examples show the relevance to metal-carbonyl cluster chemistry of the borane-oarborane structural and bonding pattern. Its relevance to other areas of chemistry may be explored readily using a systematic skeletal electron-counting procedure (161, 201). 

Tlie structural and bonding pattern to which carboranes and boranes themselves conform reflects their formulae, and so reflects the numbers of electron pairs holding their skeletal atoms together. Featured in many inorganic...

Structural and bonding patterns in tetrahedral and pseuodo-tetrahedral complexes containing alkene, alkyne and alkylidyne ligands have been reviewed S and it has been demonstrated how the orientations of such ligands acts as a compass needle to reveal n-bonding effects in the complexes.
