Abstract

Correction for ‘Chemistry of group 9 dimetallaborane analogues of octaborane(12)’ by Subrat Kumar Barik, et al., Dalton Trans., 2015, 44, 669–676.


The authors wish to add the following references to their manuscript:

As a result the authors also wish to include the following in their results and discussion section:

Note that, compound 1 has been synthesized and structurally characterized by Grimes and co-workers in a different synthetic pathway (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1977, 99, 5646; Inorg. Chem., 1977, 16, 3251).

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
