Abstract

On Au(111), an alkyne-terminated borazine derivative undergoes thermally induced cyclotrimerisation, forming nanoporous boron-nitrogen-carbon networks featuring regular BN-doped patterns, with borazine cores preserved during the reaction as characterised by scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).
