NMR-spectroscopic, X-ray crystallographic and computational analyses confirm the cumulenic nature of the central C=B=N moiety. Irradiation of [(CAAC)B(TMP)] (2) resulted in an intramolecular C-C bond activation, leading to a doubly-fused C\(_{10}\)BN heterocycle, while the reaction with acetonitrile resulted in an aryl migration from the CAAC to the acetonitrile nitrogen atom, concomitant with tautomerization of the latter to a boron-bound allylamino ligand. One-electron oxidation of 2 with CuX (X=Cl, Br) afforded the corresponding amino(halo)boryl radicals, which were characterized by EPR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. Placing 2 under an atmosphere of CO afforded the tricoordinate (CAAC,CO)-stabilized aminoborylene. Finally, the twofold oxidation of 2 with chalcogens led, in the case of N\(_{2}\)O and sulfur, to the splitting of the B-C\(_{CAAC}\) bond and formation of the 2,4-diamino-1,3,2,4-dichalcogenadiboretanes and CAAC-chalcogen adducts, whereas with selenium a monomeric boraselenone was isolated, which showed some degree of B-Se multiple bonding.}, language = {en} } @article{RangFantuzziArrowsmithetal.2021, author = {Rang, Maximilian and Fantuzzi, Felipe and Arrowsmith, Merle and Krummenacher, Ivo and Beck, Eva and Witte, Robert and Matler, Alexander and Rempel, Anna and Bischof, Tobias and Radacki, Krzysztof and Engels, Bernd and Braunschweig, Holger}, title = {Reduktion und Umlagerung eines Bor(I)-Carbonylkomplexes}, series = {Angewandte Chemie}, volume = {133}, journal = {Angewandte Chemie}, number = {6}, doi = {10.1002/ange.202014167}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-224409}, pages = {3000 -- 3005}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Bei der Einelektronenreduktion eines durch eine cyclisches (Alkyl)(amino)carben (CAAC) stabilisierten Arylborylen-Carbonylkomplexes erfolgt die Bildung eines dimeren Borylketyl-Radikalanions, bedingt durch eine intramolekulare Arylmigration zum CO Kohlenstoffatom.
