This new addition to "Oxford Chemistry Primers" series provides a comprehensive survey of the structures, bonding, synthesis, and reactivity of the title molecules and includes clusters found in the elemental state as well as compounds. It includes fullerenes C(60). Also presented is a balanced introduction to the chemistry and structures of boranes, heterboranes, cubanes, adamantane-type clusters, Zintl ion, donor-acceptor clusters, and others. Terms commonly encountered in cluster chemistry are defined and polyhedral frameworks are described.
