ChemInform Abstract: Structure of the Ammonia-Boryl Radical (BH2NH3), an Inorganic Analogue of the Ethyl Radical. A Non Empirical Study

at the UHF-SCF level employing the 6-31*G basis set including complete geometry optimization on various possible conformations suggests that the distortion of the BH₂ group is higher than the corresponding distortion of the CH₂ group in the isoelectronic CH₂CH₃ and CH₂NH₃ radicals.
