Icosahedral symmetry super-carborane and beyond

Nano-structures are often sought to be constructed from some especially stable multifunctional unit which can be manipulated into different desired forms. To this end an icosahedral borane or carborane unit is considered as a basic icosahedral building block, to build further larger nano-structures....
