✦ Synopsis


Ab initio calculations have been carried out, indicating the ground state of CT is cyclic ( z 0.9 eV more stable than linear C$ ) but C, and CT have linear ground states. Calculations also indicate that the ring opening transition state in CT lies x2.3 eV above the ground state and is of near Csv symmetry.

We report the geometry-optimized total energies and bond distances for the closo-carborane isomers 3,5-CzB6H8, 1,7-CzB7Hs, and 1,2-CzB7Hs calculated by the ab initio SCF MO method using the STO-3G basis set. Relative energies are compared with those of the other carborane isomers in the 8-and 9atom
