Analogies between Vanadoborates and Planar Aromatic Hydrocarbons: A High-Spin Analogue of Aromaticity

The vanadium-vanadium interactions in the polygonal aggregates of d1 vanadium(IV) atoms, with a total of 4k + 2 vanadium electrons (k an integer) imbedded in an electronically inactive borate matrix in certain vanadoborate structures are analogous to the ring carbon-carbon interactions in diamagneti...
