Design of Carborane Molecular Architectures via Electronic Structure Computations

Figure 1

Optimized geometry of singlet ground states (total spin = 0): (a) 1,2- , (b) 1,2- -1,2- , (c) , and (d) 1,2- -1,2- . Computations are carried out with the B3LYP/6-31 model. All geometries correspond to energy minima.
