Specifically, the "open" B-B-B interaction employs a p-orbital on the central boron, such that the outer boron atoms are required by symmetry arguments to exhibit an out-of-phase antibonding interaction. For situations with a bridging hydrogen atom, the two outer atoms will always exhibit a bonding interaction, and the classification of "open" and "closed" relates to the magnitude of the interaction.

84. There are five more unoccupied metal-dominated MOs to complete the set of 10 MOs relevant for the dimetallic complex, all of which are indicated in Fig. 11. However, because they are not of much significance for the goal of this investigation, they are not further discussed

107. 3CO where the apparently >18electron count is deceiving because one of the ligand orbital combinations remains nonbonding as a result of there being no metal based orbital of appropriate symmetry with which to interact; the electron count at the metal in such complexes is thus reduced from 20 to 18.

126. The formal charge (FC) of an atom in a given Lewis structure is the charge it would possess if the electrons in each covalent bond were to be distributed equally between the two bonded atoms such that each partner receives one electron. The notion of formal charge as disussed by Pauling is based on Langmuir's residual charge concept. L. Pauling The Nature of The Chemical Bond 3rd ed. 1960 Cornell University Press Ithaca, NY p. 9
