Boragerma[5]pyramidane Molecular Structures via Germole Rearrangement

Lukas Bührmann published this chemistry dataset on March 24, 2026. It contains molecular structure data for synthesized boragerma[5]pyramidane clusters, detailing their preparation via germole-to-borole rearrangement reactions. The data includes analysis of molecular and electronic structures, transition metal binding behavior, and reactions with nucleophiles.

Use Cases

• Analyze molecular structure data of boragerma[5]pyramidanes to classify them as molecular *nido*-type clusters.
• Study the relationship between electron-donating substituents at the boron atom and the opening of the cluster structure.
• Investigate the σ-donor and π-acceptor abilities of the clusters based on their binding behavior to transition metal complexes.
• Model the synthetic yields and selectivity of borole complex preparation from germolediides and boron dihalides.

Strengths

• Data is recent, published on March 24, 2026.
• Focuses on a specific, novel class of molecular clusters (boragerma[5]pyramidanes).
• Includes analysis of electronic structure and chemical reactivity for synthesized compounds.

Limitations

• Dataset is very small, with a total size of only 19.8 KB, indicating limited scope.
• No columnar or sample data is available, limiting direct analytical utility.
• Data is highly specialized for organometallic and synthetic chemistry, with narrow applicability.
