T1  - Single and Double Hydroboration of B-B Triple Bonds and Conver- gent Routes to a Cationic Tetraborane
T2  - Journal of the American Chemical Society
N2  - A compound with a boron-boron triple bond is shown to undergo stepwise hydroboration reactions with catecholborane to yield an unsymmetrical hydro(boryl)diborene and a 2,3-dihydrotetraborane. Abstraction of H– from the latter compound produces an unusual cationic, planar tetraborane with a hydrogen atom bridging the central B2 moiety. Spectroscopic and crystallographic data and DFT calculations support a ‘protonated diborene’ structure for this compound, which can also be accessed via direct protonation of the corresponding diborene.

T1  - Phosphine-Stabilized Diiododiborenes: Isolable Diborenes with Six Labile Bonds
T2  - Angewandte Chemie, International Edition
N2  - The lability of B=B, B-P and B-halide bonds is combined in the syntheses of the first diiododiborenes. In a series of reactivity tests, these diiododiborenes demonstrate cleavage of all six of their central bonds in different ways, leading to products of B=B hydrogenation and dihalogenation as well as halide exchange.
