Abstract: In this paper, ab initio calculations are carried put by using the contracted Gaussian basis sets of double zeta type on the perhalogenated boranes BnCln0,2-(n= 4,6,8,9,10,12) and the corresponding boron hydrides BnHn0,2-.The stabilities of BnCln and BnCln2-were discussed.It was demonstrated that there are great differences of the relative stabilities between these two series.In addition, on the basis of the calculations and analysis of B4H42- structrue rule, it is concluded that B4H42- is unstable owing to the incomplete filling of its framework bonding molecular orbital.For the same reason,BnHn is not stable and has not been synthesized so far.
