NMR and UV-vis spectroscopic data, as well as X-ray crystallographic analyses, were used to assess the electronic and steric influences on the B=B double bond of various NHCs and electron-donating substituents on the thienyl ligands. Crystallographic data showed that the degree of coplanarity of the diborene core and thienyl groups is highly dependent on the sterics of the substituents. Furthermore, any increase in the electron- donating ability of the substituents resulted in the destabilization of the HOMO and greater instability of the resulting diborenes.

The synthesis and isolation of a strained ferrocenophane containing an unsaturated two-boron bridge, isoelectronic with a C=C double bond, was achieved by reduction of a carbene-stabilized 1,1’-bis(dihaloboryl)ferrocene. A combination of spectroscopic and electrochemical measurements as well as density functional theory (DFT) calculations was used to assess the influence of the unprecedented strained cis configuration on the optical and electrochemical properties of the carbene-stabilized diborene unit. Initial reactivity studies show that the dibora[2]ferrocenophane is prone to boron-boron double bond cleavage reactions.

N2 - The first examples of adducts of cyclic alkyl(amino) carbenes (cAACs) and N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) with iminoboranes have been synthesized and fully characterized. Furthermore new synthetic route to functionalized 1,2 and 1,4-azaborinines has been developed utilizing a [2+2]/[2+4] cycloaddition reaction of di-tert-butyliminoborane and the unsymmetric (tert-butylimino)mesityborane with a series of alkynes in presence of the rhodium complex [{RhCl(PiPr3)2}]2.
