In particular, since the B–N unit is isoelectronic to C–C, and carbon is essentially intermediate in size between boron and nitrogen, much of organic chemistry finds an echo in boron–nitrogen chemistry, such as in borazine ("inorganic benzene").
Secara khusus, karena unit B–N isoelektrik dengan C–C, dan ukuran karbon berada di antara boron dan nitrogen, banyak kimia organik menemukan gaung dalam kimia boron–nitrogen, seperti pada borazina ("benzena anorganik").
