Abstract

Irradiation of samples of diborane(6), B2H6 and B2D6, separately and together, dispersed in solid neon near 4 K with tunable far-ultraviolet light from a synchrotron yielded new infrared absorption lines that are assigned to several carriers. Besides H, B, BH, BH2, BH3, B2, B2H2, and B2H4, previously identified, a further species is assigned on the basis of quantum-chemical calculations of vibrational wavenumbers and intensities to be cyc-B3H3 (D3h, singlet state) in several isotopic variants, which feature three bridging B–H–B bonds in a six-membered ring.
