传说阿尔弗雷德·斯托克（Alfred Stock）从一个深刻而持久的信念开始了他对硼氢化物化学的研究，即硼，元素周期表中与碳相邻的元素，必须参与比硼酸和当时已知的氧化硼中发现的更有趣的键合组合。[1]当然，后来的研究结果充分证实了斯托克的预测。然而，比硼氢化物及其衍生物当时难以想象的结构复杂性更重要的是，在硼烷化学中首次发现的结构和键合问题后来（有时要晚得多）在与硼化学完全无关的领域得到了证实。一个简单的例子是MHC的“agostic”相互作用，它与研究得很好的BHB和BHM桥键转化为有机金属键合没有什么不同。
Legend has it that Alfred Stock initiated his exami-nation of boron hydride chemistry from a deep and abiding conviction that boron, the element adjacent to carbon in the periodic table, must partake in more in-teresting bonding combinations than those that had been found in boric acid and the boron oxides that were then known. 1 Subsequent findings, of course, have more than amply borne out Stock’spredictions. Per-haps even more important thanthe then undreamed of structural complexities of the boron hydrides and their derivatives, however, is the way in which the structural and bonding considerations that were first uncovered in borane chemistry have later, sometimes much later, been encounteredin areas that are entirely unrelated to boronchemistry. One trivial example is the MHC “agostic” interaction which is nothing more (or less) than the well-studied BHB and BHM bridge bonding translated into an organometallic set-ting.
