  "term": "Borenes",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A traditional name, shared with borylene, for boranylidenes, the carbene analogues R-B: in which a monosubstituted boron atom carries a lone pair and two vacant p orbitals. Boron is formally in the +1 oxidation state and bonded to a single substituent. Borenes are highly reactive, so they occur as transient intermediates or are stabilized by coordination to a transition metal.",
