The construction of the B84-unit, the main building block of the infinite lattice of β-rhombohedral boron. (a) In the centre of the unit is a B12-icosahedron, and (b) to each of these 12, another boron atom is covalently bonded. (c) A B60-cage is the outer ‘skin’ of the B84-unit. (d) The final B84-unit can be described in terms of covalently bonded sub-units (B12)(B12)(B60).

Electron-deficient clustersElectron-deficient clusters
Electron deficient clusters possess fewer valence electrons than are required for a localized bonding scheme. In a cluster, the atoms form a cage-like structure.
Closo-cluster – atoms form a closed, deltahedral* cage and have the general formula [BnHn]2- (e.g. [B6H6]2-).
Nido-cluster – atoms form an open cage, derived from closed cage by removing one vertex, and have the general formula BnHn+4, [BnHn+3]- (e.g. B5H9, [B5H8]-).
Arachno-cluster – atoms form an open cage, derived from closed cage with two vertices unoccupied, and have the general formula BnHn+8, [BnHn+5]-
(e.g. B4H10, [B4H9]-).
Hypho-cluster – atoms form an open cage, derived from closed cage with three vertices unoccupied, and have the general formula BnHn+8, [BnHn+7]-.
Conjuncto-cluster – consists of two or more open cages connected together through a shared atom, an external bond, a shared edge or a shared face (e.g. {B5H8}2)
*Deltahedron is a polyhedron that possesses only triangular faces (e.g. octahedron)

Wade’s rules
•A closo-deltahedral cluster cage with n vertices requires (n+1) pairs of electrons, which occupy (n+1) cluster bonding MOs.
•From a parent closo cage with n vertices, a set of more open cages (nido, arachno, and hypho) can be derived, each of which possessed (n+1) pairs of electrons occupying (n+1) cluster bonding MOs
•For a parent closo-deltahedron with n vertices, the related nido-cluster has (n-1) vertices and (n+1) pairs of electrons
•For a parent closo-deltahedron with n vertices, the related arachno-cluster has (n-2) vertices and (n+1) pairs of electrons
•For a parent closo-deltahedron with n vertices, the related hypho-cluster has (n-3) vertices and (n+1) pairs of electrons
