Hi Laura,

it looks like your input structure has an issue. The total number of
electrons comes out as odd so you are likely missing either a hydrogen or a
charge somewhere (I'd also have a look at those long bond warnings). Maybe
your B-atom is engaged in an odd bonding arrangement as boron is wont to
do? Without seeing the structure it is hard to tell, but try and visualize
it and check if you have a chemically reasonable structure with all
valences saturated.

Kind Regards,

Thomas
