Decaborane(14) is a fuel source for aneutronic fusion and is widely used in rocket propellants. Decaborane(14) is a white crystalline compound widely recognized as a significant boron hydride cluster. It serves as a reference structure and a precursor to various other boron hydrides. Notably, when in its pure liquid form, Decaborane(14) can undergo reduction through acetate.
