A MNDO study of molecular geometries, enthalpies, formation, atomization, bond separation, and hydrogenation of a series of unsaturated boron-nitrogen compounds, linear with two and three members and cyclic with three, four, five, and six members are presented. For all these molecules, MNDO calculations are in excellent agreement with available ab initio calculations or experimental data. The high rotational barrier in aminoborane HlBNH2, 30.6 kcal/mol, and the length of bond in iminoborane HBNH, 1.1 83 A, imply strong double and triple BN bond character in these two molecules. In the odd membered heterocycles, examination of the molecular geometries and energies of equilibrium states shows that in all cases, the stability of the compounds grows with the number of boron atoms and decreases with that of the nitrogen atoms. Moreover, compared study of the two BN-fulvenes with their homologous hydrocarbon shows that only BN (BB)-fulvene has a polyenic structure similar to that of fulvene.
