  abstract  = {Diplatinum A-frame complexes with a bridging (di)boron unit in the apex position were synthesized in a single step by the double oxidative addition of dihalo(di)borane precursors at a bis(diphosphine)-bridged Pt\(^{0}\)\(_{2}\) complex. While structurally analogous to well-known μ-borylene complexes, in which delocalized dative three-center-two-electron M-B-M bonding prevails, theoretical investigations into the nature of Pt-B bonding in these A-frame complexes show them to be rare dimetalla(di)boranes displaying two electron-sharing Pt-B σ-bonds. This is experimentally reflected in the low kinetic stability of these compounds, which are prone to loss of the (di)boron bridgehead unit.},

  abstract  = {Dihalodiboranes(4) react with an N-heterocyclic silylene (NHSi) to generate NHSi-adducts of 1-aryl-2-silyl-1,2-diboraindanes as confirmed by X-ray crystallography, featuring the functionalization of both B-X (X = halogen) bonds and a C-H bond under mild conditions. Coordination of a third NHSi to the proposed 1,1-diaryl- 2,2-disilyldiborane(4) intermediates, generated by a two-fold B-X insertion, may be crucial for the C-H borylation that leads to the final products. Notably, our results demonstrate the first C-H borylation with a strong B-F bond activated by silylene insertion.},
