Abstract

Abstract: Invited for this month's cover are the research groups of Prof. Robin Rogers, based at McGill University, and Prof. David Dixon, based at The University of Alabama. The cover picture shows two isomers of [B9 H14 ] − which coexist in a crystalline salt, the mirror symmetric form on the left and the unsymmetrical form on the right.

Abstract : "…The information obtained by crystallography provided the first experimental benchmark data for comparing the two forms of the [B9 H14 ] − anion…" Read more about the story behind the cover in the Cover Profile and about the research itself (DOI:10.1002/cplu.201600270 ).
