Be<sub>3</sub>B<sub>11</sub><sup>−</sup>cluster: a dynamically fluxional beryllo-borospherene
Ying‐Jin Wang, Lin‐Yan Feng, Miao Yan, Hua‐Jin Zhai
Abstract
Two isoenergetic isomers of the Be 3 B 11 − cluster, featuring the smallest trihedral spherical geometries, can interconvert via the mechanism of “triangle-pyramid-triangle”, which facilitates the migration of boron atoms in the B 11 skeleton.
