description: K(B5H4)3(BH)6 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of twenty-four boranediylradical molecules and two K(B5H4)3 ribbons oriented in the (-1, 0, 1) direction. In each K(B5H4)3 ribbon, there are two inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent H+0.78+ atoms. Both K–H bond lengths are 3.05 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two equivalent H+0.78+ atoms. Both K–H bond lengths are 2.93 Å. There are fifteen inequivalent B+0.71- sites. In the first B+0.71- site, B+0.71- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight B+0.71- atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.79–1.89 Å. In the second B+0.71- site, B+0.71- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight B+0.71- atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.79–1.89 Å. In the third B+0.71- site, B+0.71- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight B+0.71- atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.79–1.90 Å. In the fourth B+0.71- site, B+0.71- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to two B+0.71- and one H+0.78+ atom. The B–H bond length is 1.18 Å. In the fifth B+0.71- site, B+0.71- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to two B+0.71- and one H+0.78+ atom. The B–H bond length is 1.19 Å.
