Dihydrogen Bonding in Compressed Ammonia Borane and Its Roles in Structural Stability
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Theoretical structure prediction calculations have revealed that the conformation of ammonia borane (NH 3 BH 3 ) in the crystalline state can be modified by pressure, changing from the staggered configuration at low pressure to an eclipsed geometry at high pressure. At low pressure, the crystalline structure is stabilized by the charge transfer N—H δ+ ··· δ− H—B dihydrogen interactions. In the high pressure polymorphs, the NH 3 BH 3 is predicted to form a layered structure. The N—H δ+ ··· δ− H—B bonding is still predominant within the layer. The stacking of the layers, however, is determined by the occurrence of additional homopolar B—H δ− ··· δ− H—B interaction unprecedented in NH 3 BH 3 and facilitated by the eclipsed conformation. This bonding is shown to be the result of secondary interactions between BH 3 groups from molecules of adjacent layers. Topological analysis of the charge density and perturbation calculations on the molecule fragments show unambiguously that the B—H δ− ··· δ− H—B interaction is covalent in nature with the bond strength comparable to a conventional hydrogen bond.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
