In exploring one-electron carbon-carbon bonds, I had noted previously[cite]10.59350/88k04-2×509[/cite] that both hexafluoroethane and ethane itself could each lose an electron to produce such species. A discussion developed in which a molecule isoelectronic with ethane, namely the methyl-λ1-borane radical (H3B-CH3) was proposed by Jacob. The optimised structure at the ωB97XD/6-31G(d) level exhibited a B-C bond length of 1.57Å, with two of the B-H hydrogens forming a a 3c-3e bond with boron and so a one-electron B-C bond was discounted. Here I take a closer look at this system.
