Experimental and Computational ⁷⁷Se NMR Spectroscopic Study on Selenaborane Cluster Compounds.

ABSTRACT: Calculated and measured ⁷⁷Se nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shift data on a diverse collection of 13 selenaborane cluster compounds, containing a total of 19 selenium centers, reveals a correlation between chemical shifts and the intracluster coordination of selenium atoms within their borane frameworks. A plot of the measured against calculated ⁷⁷Se NMR chemical shifts shows an approximately linear relationship that can serve as a predictive tool in assessing the chemical shift range in which a selenium vertex from a particular compound might be expected to be found, thereby reducing expensive experimental time. Furthermore, the relative chemical shifts between selenium vertices in clusters containing more than one selenium atom are consistent across the r
