Abstract
New interatomic distances in B10H14, B4H10, and B5H11 indicate that the B–B distances which are more strongly bound in the simplified valence theory are slightly shorter than other B–B distances. The position of the unique hydrogen atom in B5H11 is now somewhat more satisfactory in relation to the plane of symmetry of the isolated molecule. The improvement of agreement of observed and calculated x‐ray intensities suggests that least squares refinements as usually applied are not carried through enough iterations.Keywords
