Diborane(6), commonly known as diborane, is the chemical compound with the formula B2H6. It is a highly toxic, colorless, and pyrophoric gas with a repulsively...

There are other forms of diborane with different numbers of hydrogen atoms, including diborane(4) and diborane(6). Diborane(2) is a highly reactive molecule...

Diborane(4) is a transient inorganic compound with the chemical formula B 2H 4. Stable derivatives are known. Diborane(4) has been produced by abstraction...

chemical species, it reacts with itself to form diborane. Thus, it is an intermediate in the preparation of diborane according to the reaction: BX3 +BH4− → HBX3−...

structure and bonding. First, new synthetic techniques were required to handle diborane and many of its derivatives, which are both pyrophoric and volatile. Alfred...

molecules and ions are described as dimers, even when the monomer is elusive. Diborane (B2H6) is an dimer of borane, which is elusive and rarely observed. Almost...

electrons in bonding. This type of bonding occurs in boron hydrides such as diborane (B2H6), which are often described as electron deficient because there are...

hydrogen fuel, but is otherwise primarily of academic interest. Reaction of diborane with ammonia mainly gives the diammoniate salt [H2B(NH3)2]+[BH4]−...

reactions of diborane, B2H6. Hermann Irving Schlesinger's laboratory at the University of Chicago was one of two laboratories that prepared diborane. It was...

and will burn readily (e.g., gasoline, acetylene, propane, hydrogen gas, diborane). Includes pyrophoric substances. Flash point below room temperature at...
