This compound was reduced with KC8 to its corresponding diborene, with the benzylphosphine forming a five-membered chelate. The diborene reacts with butadiene, 2-trimethylsiloxy-1,3-butadiene and isoprene to form 4,5-diboracyclohexenes, which interconvert between their 1,1- (geminal) and 1,2- (vicinal) chelated isomers. The 1,1-chelated diborene undergoes a halide-catalysed isomerisation into its thermodynamically favoured 1,2-isomer, which undergoes Diels-Alder reactions more slowly than the kinetic product.}, language = {en} } @article{MatlerArrowsmithSchorretal.2021, author = {Matler, Alexander and Arrowsmith, Merle and Schorr, Fabian and Hermann, Alexander and Hofmann, Alexander and Lenczyk, Carsten and Braunschweig, Holger}, title = {Reactivity of Terminal Iron Borylenes and Bis(borylenes) with Carbodiimides: Cycloaddition, Metathesis, Insertion and C-H Activation Pathways}, series = {European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry}, volume = {2021}, journal = {European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry}, number = {45}, doi = {10.1002/ejic.202100629}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-257397}, pages = {4619-4631}, year = {2021}, abstract = {The reactions of carbodiimides with the iron arylborylene complex [Fe=BDur(CO)\(_{3}\)(PMe\(_{3}\))] (Dur=2,3,5,6-Me\(_{4}\)C\(_{6}\)H) and the iron bis(borylene) complex [Fe{=BDur}{=BN(SiMe\(_{3}\))\(_{2}\)}(CO)\(_{3}\)] yield a wide variety of temperature-dependent products, including known FeBNC and novel FeBNB metallacycles, complexes of N-heterocyclic boracarbene and spiro-boracarbene ligands and a unique 1,3,2,4-diazadiborolyl pianostool complex, characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography.

The resulting water soluble polymers showed lower critical solution temperatures (LCST) at 52.5 degrees C (DIMEB-HES) and 84.5 degrees C (RAMEB-HES), respectively. LCST phase separations could be completely avoided by the introduction of a small amount of carboxylate groups at the HES backbone. The methylated CDs conjugated to the HES backbone exhibited significantly lower cytotoxicities than the corresponding monomeric CD derivatives. Since the binding potentials of these CD conjugates were very high, they are promising candidates for new oral dosage forms of anaesthetic actives.}, language = {en} }
