Molecular clusters, in the broad sense that the term is commonly
understood, today comprise an enormous class of species extending
into virtually every important area of chemistry: "naked" metal
clusters, transition metal carbonyl clusters, hydrocarbon cages
such as cubane (C H ) and dodecahedrane (C H ), 8 8 20 20
organometallic cluster complexes, enzymes containing Fe S or MoFe S
4 4 3 4 cores, high polymers based on carborane units, and, of
course, the many kinds of polyhedral borane species. So large is
the area spanned by these diverse classes that any attempt to deal
with them comprehensively in one volume would, to say the least, be
ambitious-and also premature. We are presently at a stage where
intriguing relationships between the various cluster families are
becoming apparent (particularly in terms of bonding descriptions),
and despite large dif ferences in their chemistry an underlying
unity is gradually developing in the field. For example, structural
changes occurring in Fe S cores as electrons are 4 4 pumped in and
out, in some measure resemble those observed in boranes and
carboranes. The cleavage of alkynes via incorporation into
carborane cages and subsequent cage rearrangement, a sequence
familiar to boron chemists, is a thermodynamically favored process
which may be related to the behavior of unsaturated hydrocarbons on
metal surfaces; analogies of this sort have drawn attention from
theorists and experimentalists."
