  abstract  = {In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde zum einen das Koordinationsverhalten von Lewis-Basen an die Lewis-aciden Borzentren der symmetrisch konfigurierten 1,2-Dihalogendiborane(4) des Typs B2R2X2 (R = NMe2, Mes, Dur, tBu; X = Cl, Br, I) und des unsymmetrisch 1,1 substituierten Diborans(4) F2BB(Mes)2, sowie die Eigenschaften und die Reaktivit{\"a}t der erhaltenen sp2-sp3 Diboran(4)-Verbindungen untersucht. Zum anderem wurde die F{\"a}higkeit des 1,1-substituierten Diborans(4) F2BB(Mes)2 zur oxidativen Addition der B-F- bzw. B-B-Bindung an Bisphosphan-Platin(0)-Komplexe untersucht.},

  abstract  = {Unsaturated bridges that link the two cyclopentadienyl ligands together in strained ansa metallocenes are rare and limited to carbon-carbon double bonds. The synthesis and isolation of a strained ferrocenophane containing an unsaturated two-boron bridge, isoelectronic with a C=C double bond, was achieved by reduction of a carbene-stabilized 1,1'-bis(dihaloboryl)ferrocene. A combination of spectroscopic and electrochemical measurements as well as density functional theory (DFT) calculations was used to assess the influence of the unprecedented strained cis configuration on the optical and electrochemical properties of the carbene-stabilized diborene unit. Initial reactivity studies show that the dibora[2]ferrocenophane is prone to boron-boron double bond cleavage reactions.},

  abstract  = {Among the numerous routes organic chemists have developed to synthesize benzene derivatives and heteroaro- matic compounds, transition-metal-catalyzed cycloaddition reactions are the most elegant. In contrast, cycloaddition reactions of heavier alkene and alkyne analogues, though limited in scope, proceed uncatalyzed. In this work we present the first spontaneous cycloaddition reactions of lighter alkene and alkyne analogues. Selective addition of unactivated alkynes to boron-boron multiple bonds under ambient con- ditions yielded diborocarbon equivalents of simple aromatic hydrocarbons, including the first neutral 6p-aromatic dibora- benzene compound, a 2 p-aromatic triplet biradical 1,3-dibor- ete, and a phosphine-stabilized 2 p-homoaromatic 1,3-dihydro- 1,3-diborete. DFT calculations suggest that all three com- pounds are aromatic and show frontier molecular orbitals matching those of the related aromatic hydrocarbons, C6H6 and C4H42+, and homoaromatic C4H5+.},
