Abstract: The notion that a regular icosahedron is unattainable in neutral B12H12 has persisted for nearly 70 years. This is because 24 valence electrons are used for B–H bonds, while another 24 electrons are necessary to maintain the deltahedron, unlike the 26 used in the dianion. According to Wade–Mingos rules, the neutral system should be a deltahedron with a capped face. Nevertheless, our exploration of the potential energy surface of B12H12 reveals that the global minimum is a closed-shell form with an H2 unit attached to a boron vertex of B12H10, preserving the deltahedral boron skeleton.
