B3Si11− is formed by the fusion of a B3Si7 bicapped tetragonal antiprism to a B3Si4 pentagonal bipyramid by sharing a B3 triangle, while neutral B3Si11 has a B3-endohedral sandwich structure composed of a Si5 five-membered ring and a Si6 six-membered ring.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
