When exposed to diborane B\(_{2}\)Br\(_{4}\), NDP underwent self-deprotonation to afford [NDP-B\(_{2}\)Br\(_{3}\)]Br, an unsymmetrical diborane comprised of four fused rings. The reaction of two equivalents of monoborane BBr\(_{3}\) and NDP in a non-polar solvent provided the simple phosphine-borane adduct [NDP(BBr\(_{3}\))\(_{2}\)], which then underwent intramolecular halide abstraction to furnish the salt [NDP-BBr\(_{2}\)][BBr\(_{4}\)], featuring a different coordination mode from that of [NDP-B\(_{2}\)Br\(_{3}\)]Br. Direct deprotonation of NDP by KHMDS or PhCH2K generates mono- and dipotassium reagents, respectively.

Carbonyl complexes of p-block elements, of the form [E(CO)n] (E = main-group fragment), are much less abundant than their TM cousins; this scarcity and the general instability of low-valent p-block species means that replicating the historical reactions of TM carbonyls is often very difficult. Here we present a step-for-step replica of the Fischer carbene synthesis at a borylene carbonyl involving nucleophilic attack at the carbonyl carbon followed by electrophilic quenching at the resultant acylate oxygen atom. These reactions provide borylene acylates and alkoxy-/silyloxy-substituted alkylideneboranes, main-group analogues of the archetypal transition metal acylate and Fischer carbene families, respectively. When either the incoming electrophile or the boron center has a modest steric profile, the electrophile instead attacks at the boron atom, leading to carbene-stabilized acylboranes - boron analogues of the well-known transition metal acyl complexes. These results constitute faithful main-group replicas of a number of historical organometallic processes and pave the way to further advances in the field of main-group metallomimetics.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Haerterich2024, author = {H{\"a}rterich, Marcel}, title = {Synthese und Reaktivit{\"a}t niedervalenter borhaltiger Verbindungen der Oxidationsstufe +1}, doi = {10.25972/OPUS-31760}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-317605}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit der Synthese und Reaktivitat niedervalenter borhaltiger Verbindungen der Oxidationsstufe +I, sowie der Darstellung eines neuen zweiz{\"a}hnigen Carbens. Von zentraler Bedeutung waren dabei Verbindungen aus der Substanzklasse der cAACs, die sowohl als stabilisierende Lewis-Basen der Diborene und Borylene zum Einsatz kamen, als auch das Grundger{\"u}st des neuen Carbens bilden. Zun{\"a}chst stand die Synthese eines neuen Diborens im Fokus, wobei Cyclohexylsubstituenten am Pyrrolidingerust des cAACs verwendet wurden. Die Reaktivit{\"a}tsstudien wurden anschließend am Diboren mit dem methylsubstituierten cAAC-Derivat durchgef{\"u}hrt. Dabei konnte neben der 1,2-Addition von Wasser die Insertion von Acetylen in die BB-Bindung, sowie die Spaltung durch die Reaktion mit diversen Aziden beobachtet werden. Dar{\"u}ber hinaus gelingt die vollst{\"a}ndige Separierung beider Boratome in zwei getrennte Molek{\"u}le bei der Umsetzung mit Kohlenstoffdioxid in einer Reaktionssequenz aus [2+2]-Cycloaddition und -reversion. Das dabei erhaltene Hydroborylen wurde im zweiten Teil der Arbeit hinsichtlich seiner Reaktivit{\"a}t untersucht. Gerade die Carbonylfunktionalit{\"a}t erlaubte hierbei den Zugang zu vielf{\"a}ltigen Reaktionsprodukten. Unter anderen kann der Carbonylsubstituent in ein Alkin oder ein Nitril {\"u}berf{\"u}hrt werden. Zudem kann die, aus der {\"U}bergangsmetall-Carbonylchemie bekannte, Fischer-Carben Synthese am Borylen reproduziert werden und stellt somit ein metallomimetisches Verhalten der Borylene zur Schau. Der letzte Teil befasst sich mit der Darstellung eines zweiz{\"a}hnigen Carbenliganden, wobei der Nachweis des freien Carbens indirekt mittels Abfangreaktionen gelang.}, subject = {Bor}, language = {de} }
