<i>D</i> <sub>2h</sub> HZn <sub>4</sub> S <sub>4</sub> <sup>−</sup> : an elongated planar tetracoordinate hydrogen star
The first elongated HZn<sub>4</sub>S<sub>4</sub><sup>-</sup> (<i>D</i><sub>2h</sub>) star containing a planar tetracoordinate hydrogen (ptH) was predicted. It is a true global minimum and possesses good dynamic stability. The central ptH is stabilized by one 5c-2e half-covalent and half-ionic multicenter bond, rather than σ aromaticity. Encouragingly, it is a superhalogen anion.
