The structure and frequencies of C 12 B 24 N 24 have been calculated by means of an ab initio method. By comparing the average bond energies with C 60 , the calculated results predict that the cage C 12 B 24 N 24 is a stable molecule. The calculated results indicate that the cage molecule C 12 B 24 N 24 has a relative large HOMO–LUMO energy gap and a low rigidity. The structures and stability of six possible isomers of C 2 B 4 N 4 are used to suggest a possible transformation path from the pentagon CB 2 N 2 to the C 12 B 24 N 24 materials. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
