Charge‐shift bonds (CSBs) constitute a new class of bonds different than covalent/polar‐
covalent and ionic bonds. Bonding in CSBs does not arise from either the covalent or the …

The studies published over the last 15 years on the synthesis, physicochemical properties,
and application prospects of saturated and unsaturated three-and four-membered boron …

Herein we report a facile and selective synthetic route to monocyclic NHC-stabilized
boriranes. We have succeeded in obtaining two highly stable new boriranes through salt …

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) or multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) have found extensive
applications in high-precision devices. While the increased configurational entropy for HEAs …

The objective of this work is to present a unified collection of structural and chemical
information on a series of neutral chemical tri-elemental species up to a molecular formula C …

In this paper, the nature of electron-pair bonds is explored from an energy decomposition
perspective. The recently developed valence bond energy decomposition analysis (VB …

A comprehensive investigation, utilizing valence‐bond‐and molecular‐orbital‐based
techniques, reveals that C− N bonds in protonated and methylated ammonium compounds …

[1.1. 1] Propellane, a compound whose structure includes two saturated carbons in which all
four bonds are directed into a single hemisphere, is of theoretical interest, but has also seen …
