In this issue of Chem, Kondo and co-workers report a facile soft-chemical method for the preparation of layered, electrically conductive hydrogen boride, which is short-range order but amorphous as a result of the geometrical frustration of the terminal B–H bonds. This work offers an alternative route to two-dimensional (2D) boron materials.

二维硼材料的化学合成

在本期《化学》杂志上，近藤和他的同事报告了一种制备层状导电氢硼化物的简便软化学方法，该方法是短程有序的，但由于端子B–H的几何受挫而无定形债券。这项工作为二维（2D）硼材料提供了另一种途径。
