We investigate the interaction of carbon monoxide (CO) molecule with neutral boron 13 (B$_{1}$$_{3}$) cluster using spin-polarized density functional theory (DFT). We found that the edge sites of B$_{1}$$_{3}$ cluster is the most reactive part, with strong CO adsorption of around -1.67 eV. Molecular orbitals analysis of the cluster shows that the HOMO nearest to the Fermi level contributes to the adsorption of CO molecule. Our results indicate that B$_{1}$$_{3}$ cluster could have potential applications in the storage and sequestration of CO molecules.
