Based on detailed bonding analyses on the fluxional behaviors of planar B19 - , tubular Ta@B20 - , and cage-like B39 - , we propose the concept of fluxional bonds in boron nanoclusters as an extension of the classical localized bonds and delocalized bonds in chemistry. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
