The borane, carborane, carbocation continuum

The Borane, Carborane, Carbocation Continuum explores the emerging understanding of the similarities of properties and behavior shared by these electron-deficient species. Based on the work presented at a trailblazing symposium held at the Loker Hydrocarbon Research Institute of the University of Southern California, it brings together the contributions of distinguished scientists from around the world, including Nobel Prize winners George A. Olah and William N.

Lipscomb, to illustrate the results of research on the structures and bonding characteristics of boranes, carboranes, and carbocations.
