Abstract:Luminescence is observed in three novel macropolyhedral nineteen‐ and eighteen‐vertex chalcogenaboranes: Se2B17H17 (1), SeB17H19 (3) and SeB18H20 (4). This led us to the recognition that previously published macropolyhedral heteroborane species might also exhibit luminescence. Thus, the known nineteen‐ and eighteen‐vertex dithiaboranes S2B17H17 (2), n‐S2B16H16 (5) and i‐S2B16H16 (6) were synthesised and also found to exhibit a range of luminescent properties. These macropolyhedral species are very different fr… Show more
