An immensely broad scope of structural motifs is covered by the intriguing chemistry of boron–sulfur and boron–selenium compounds. Characteristic structural features of the binary boron sulfides can be applied to understand and rationalize the three‐dimensional atomic arrangement in macromolecular anionic frameworks such as that of Li 6+2 x [B 10 S 18 ]S x ( x ≈2, shown in the picture; ○: S, •: B, ○: Li). Of interest are also the ion dynamics of lithium thioborates and a persubstituted B 12 icosahedron that was prepared by high‐temperature synthesis and features a characteristic planar B 3 Se 2 ring at the chelating ligand.
