The title compounds comprise two borane moieties that show effective internal π-conjugation involving the respective boron centers and the adjacent hetaryl groups. Conjugation between both borane units, however, is disrupted by the aliphatic linker. Cyclic voltammetry revealed minimal electronic communication between the boron centers, as evidenced by two closely spaced reduction processes. The UV-vis spectra showed bathochromic shifted absorption bands compared to related monoboranes, which is attributed to the methylene bridge. A further red-shift results upon introduction of methyl or SiMe\(_3\) groups at the terminal thiophene rings.}, language = {en} } @article{BrosgeLorenzHeltenetal.2019, author = {Brosge, Felix and Lorenz, Thomas and Helten, Holger and Bolm, Carsten}, title = {BN- and BO-Doped Inorganic-Organic Hybrid Polymers with Sulfoximine Core Units}, series = {Chemistry - A European Journal}, volume = {25}, journal = {Chemistry - A European Journal}, number = {55}, doi = {10.1002/chem.201903289}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-206194}, pages = {12708-12711}, year = {2019}, abstract = {While polysulfones constitute a class of well-established, highly valuable applied materials, knowledge about polymers based on the related sulfoximine group is very limited. We have employed functionalized diaryl sulfoximines and a p -phenylene bisborane as building blocks for unprecedented BN- and BO-doped alternating inorganic-organic hybrid copolymers. While the former were accessed by a facile silicon/boron exchange protocol, the synthesis of polymers with main-chain B-O linkages was achieved by salt elimination.}, language = {en} }
