, OBJECTIVES:
The chapter covers boranes, carboranes, metalloboranes,
metallocarboranes along with various aspects of isopoly
and heteropoly acids. This chapter aims at providing a
good understanding of metal cluster compounds with
respect to their synthesis, structure and properties.
Typesboranes, carboranes their synthesis and various
bonding aspects in these class of compounds will be
focused.
, INTRODUCTION
Clusters are a collections of atoms or molecules which are intermediate
in size between a molecule and bulk solid. They may have varied
nuclearities and stoichiometry. They can be considered as link between
atoms, molecules and bulk material. The properties of clusters changes
with size. Metal clusters have metal-metal bonds. This chapter first deals
with boron compounds and then gradually leads to clusters such
carboranes, metalloboranes, metallocarboranes and isopoly-heteropoly
acids. These complex materials finds various applications in the
synthesis of various organic derivatives and industry.
