A little while ago I pondered allotropic bromine, or Br(Br) ₃ . But this is a far wackier report[cite]10.1126/science.aao7293[/cite] of a molecule of light. The preparation and detection of dimer and trimer bound photon states is pure physics; probably considered by the physicists themselves as NOT chemistry. It is certainly true, as a chemist,  that I understood only a little of the article.

Alkalides are anionic alkali compounds containing e.g. sodide (Na–), kalide (K–), rubidide (Rb–) or caeside (Cs–). Around 90 examples can be found in the Cambridge structure database (see DOI: 10.14469/hpc/3453  for the search query and results). So what about the ammonium analogue, ammonide (NH4–)? A quick search of Scifinder drew a blank!
