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.}, language = {en} } @article{GaertnerMarekArrowsmithetal.2021, author = {G{\"a}rtner, Annalena and Marek, Matth{\"a}us and Arrowsmith, Merle and Auerhammer, Dominic and Radacki, Krzysztof and Prieschl, Dominic and Dewhurst, Rian D. and Braunschweig, Holger}, title = {Boron- versus Nitrogen-Centered Nucleophilic Reactivity of (Cyano)hydroboryl Anions: Synthesis of Cyano(hydro)organoboranes and 2-Aza-1,4-diborabutatrienes}, series = {Chemistry—A European Journal}, volume = {27}, journal = {Chemistry—A European Journal}, number = {37}, doi = {10.1002/chem.202101025}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-256853}, pages = {9694-9699}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Cyclic alkyl(amino)carbene-stabilized (cyano)hydroboryl anions were synthesized by deprotonation of (cyano)dihydroborane precursors.
