  • These four articles are new enough and long enough. The hook facts have inline citations, the articles are neutral and within policy. In the spot checks I made I found no evidence of close paraphrasing. Its a bit complex, but as I understand it, Tetramethyldiborane exists as a dimer of Dimethyldiborane, so when the source states that the latter spontaneously ignites when exposed to the atmosphere, the same must be true of Tetramethyldiborane. Please correct me if I misunderstood this. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:49, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
