T1 - C–S Bond Borylation and Diborylation of Alkyl Halides, Tosylates, and Alcohols
T1 - Borylierung und Diborylierung von C–S-Bindungen von Alkylhalogeniden, Tosylaten und Alkoholen
N2 - Alkylboronates play an important role in synthetic chemistry, materials science and drug discovery. They are easy to handle due to their good air and moisture stability, and can be readily employed to form carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bonds and can be converted to various functional groups under mild reaction conditions. Compared with conventional groups, such as aryl (pseudo)halides or alcohols, organosulfur compounds represent an alternative and complimentary substitute in coupling reactions. The construction of C–B bond from C–SO bond of aryl sulfoxide is presented in Chapter 2. The selective cleavage of either alkyl(C)-sulfonyl or aryl(C)-sulfonyl bonds of an aryl alkyl sulfone via Cu-free or Cu-mediated processes generates the corresponding boronate esters, which are presented in Chapter 3 and Chapter 4. 1,2-Bis(boronate esters) are emerging as important synthetic intermediates for preparing 1,2-difunctional compounds. In addition, the boryl moieties in different environments in a 1,2-bis(boronate ester) can be differentiated and converted selectively, allowing the synthesis of a wide variety of complex molecules. A direct and selective diboration of C–X and C–O bonds for the preparation of 1,2-bis(boronate esters) is presented in Chapter 5.
N2 - Alkylboronate spielen eine wichtige Rolle in der Synthesechemie, den Materialwissenschaften und der Wirkstoffforschung. Sie sind aufgrund ihrer guten Luft- und Feuchtigkeitsstabilität einfach zu handhaben und können leicht zur Bildung von Kohlenstoff-Kohlenstoff- und Kohlenstoff-Heteroatom-Bindungen verwendet und unter milden Reaktionsbedingungen in verschiedene funktionelle Gruppen umgewandelt werden. Gegenüber herkömmlichen Gruppen wie Aryl(Pseudo)halogeniden oder Alkoholen stellen Organoschwefelverbindungen einen alternativen und komplementären Ersatz bei Kupplungsreaktionen dar. Der Aufbau einer C–B-Bindung aus einer C–SO-Bindung von Arylsulfoxid wird in Kapitel 2 vorgestellt. Die selektive Spaltung von entweder Alkyl(C)-Sulfonyl- oder Aryl(C)-Sulfonyl-Bindungen eines Arylalkylsulfons über Cu-freie oder Cu-vermittelte Prozesse erzeugen die entsprechenden Boronatester und werden in Kapitel 3 und Kapitel 4 vorgestellt. 1,2-Bis(Boronatester) entwickeln sich als wichtige Synthesezwischenprodukte zur Herstellung von 1,2-difunktionellen Verbindungen. Darüber hinaus können die Boryleinheiten in verschiedenen Umgebungen in einem 1,2-Bis(boronatester) differenziert und selektiv umgewandelt werden, was die Synthese einer Vielzahl komplexer Moleküle ermöglicht. Eine direkte und selektive Diborierung von C–X- und C–O-Bindungen zur Herstellung von 1,2-Bis(boronatestern) wird in Kapitel 5 vorgestellt.

T1 - Diphosphino-Functionalized 1,8-Naphthyridines: a Multifaceted Ligand Platform for Boranes and Diboranes
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - A 1,8-naphthyridine diphosphine (NDP) reacts with boron-containing Lewis acids to generate complexes featuring a number of different naphthyridine bonding modes. 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. The monopotassium reagent reacts with one or half an equivalent of B\(_{2}\)(NMe\(_{2}\))\(_{2}\)Cl\(_{2}\) to afford NDP-based diboranes with three or four amino substituents.

T1 - Room Temperature Phosphorescence (RTP): Experimental And Theoretical Studies on Boron-Containing Materials
T1 - Raumtemperaturphosphoreszenz (RTP): Experimentelle und theoretische Studien zu borhaltigen Materialien
N2 - Persistent room temperature phosphorescent (RTP) luminophores have gained remarkable interest recently for a number of applications in security printing, OLEDs, optical storage, time-gated biological imaging and oxygen sensors. We report the first persistent RTP with lifetimes up to 0.5 s from simple triarylboranes which have no lone pairs. We also have prepared 3 isomeric (o, m, p-bromophenyl)-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)boranes. Among the 3 isomers (o-, m- and p-BrTAB) synthesized, the ortho-one is the only one which shows dual phosphorescence, with a short lifetime of 0.8 ms and a long lifetime of 234 ms in the crystalline state at room temperature. At last, we checked the RTP properties from the boric acid. We found that the pure boric acid does not show RTP in the solid state.
N2 - In letzter Zeit haben Luminophore, die eine effiziente Raumtemperatur-Phosphoreszenz (RTP) zeigen, aufgrund ihrer zahlreichen Anwendungen enormes Interesse gefunden. Die meisten phosphoreszierenden Materialien leiten sich jedoch von Übergangsmetallkomplexen ab, da ihr intrinsisches schnelles Intersystem Crossing (ISC) durch die starke Spin Bahn Kopplung (SOC) des Schwermetalls induziert wird. Metallfreie RTP Materialien sind selten und haben sich zu einem vielversprechenden Gebiet entwickelt, da sie kostengünstig und umweltfreundlich sind. Dieses Kapitel fasst organische molekulare Materialien mit langen Triplett Lebensdauern bei Raumtemperatur aus der Perspektive zusammen, ob sie aus einem molekularen oder Mehrkomponentensystem stammen. Bei rein organischen phosphoreszierenden Materialien werden üblicherweise Heteroatome in das Rückgrat eingeführt, um die Singulett Triplett ISC Geschwindigkeitskonstante zu erhöhen. In Mehrkomponentensystemen wird durch nützliche Strategien wie Wirt-Gast, Polymermatrix, Copolymerisation und supramolekulare Anordnung eine starre Matrixanordnung erreicht, durch die nichtstrahlende Pfade eingeschränkt und so ultralange RTP realisiert wird. ...

T1 - Applications of Fluorinated Aryl Boronates in Organic Synthesis
T1 - Die Anwendungen von fluorinierten Arylboronaten in der organischen Synthese
N2 - Fluorinated compounds are an important motif, particularly in pharmaceuticals, as one-third of the top performing drugs have fluorine in their structures. Fluorinated biaryls also have numerous applications in areas such as material science, agriculture, crystal engineering, supramolecular chemistry, etc. Thus, the development of new synthetic routes to fluorinated chemical compounds is an important area of current research. One promising method is the borylation of suitable precursors to generate fluorinated aryl boronates as versatile building blocks for organic synthesis.
Chapter 1
In this chapter, the latest developments in the synthesis, stability issues, and applications of fluorinated aryl boronates in organic synthesis are reviewed. The catalytic synthesis of fluorinated aryl boronates using different methods, such as C–H, C–F, and C–X (X = Cl, Br, I, OTf) borylations are discussed. Further studies covering instability issues of the fluorinated boronate derivatives, which are accelerated by ortho-fluorine, have been reported, and the applications of these substrates, therefore, need special treatment.
Numerous groups have reported methods to employ highly fluorinated aryl boronates that anticipate the protodeboronation issue; thus, polyfluorinated aryl boronates, especially those containing ortho-fluorine substituents, can be converted into chloride, bromide, iodide, phenol, carboxylic acid, nitro, cyano, methyl esters, and aldehyde analogues. These substrates can be applied in many cross-coupling reactions, such as the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction with aryl halides, the Chan-Evans-Lam C–N reaction with aryl amines or nitrosoarenes, C–C(O) reactions with N-(aryl-carbonyloxy)phthalamides or thiol esters (Liebskind-Srogl cross-coupling), and oxidative coupling reactions with terminal alkynes. Furthermore, the difficult reductive elimination from the highly stable complex [PdL2(2,6-C6F2+nH3-n)2] was the next challenge to be targeted in the homocoupling of 2,6-di-fluoro aryl pinacol boronates, and it has been solved by conducting the reaction in arene solvents that reduce the energy barrier in this step as long as no coordinating solvent or ancillary ligand is employed.
Chapter 2
In this chapter, phenanthroline-ligated copper complexes proved to be efficient catalysts for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of highly fluorinated aryl boronate esters (ArF–Bpin) with aryl iodides or bromides. This newly developed method is an attractive alternative to the traditional methods as copper is an Earth-abundant metal, less toxic, and cheaper compared to the traditional methods which commonly required palladium catalysts, and silver oxide that is also often required in stoichiometric amounts. A combination of 10 mol% copper iodide and 10 mol% phenanthroline, with CsF as a base, in DMF, at 130 ˚C, for 18 hours is efficient to cross-couple fluorinated aryl pinacol boronates with aryl iodides to generate cross-coupled products in good to excellent yields. This method is also viable for polyfluorophenyl borate salts such as pentafluorophenyl-BF3K. Notably, employing aryl bromides instead of aryl iodides for the coupling with fluorinated aryl–Bpin compounds is also possible; however, increased amounts of CuI/phenanthroline catalyst is necessary, in a mixture of DMF and toluene (1:1).
A diverse range of π···π stacking interactions is observed in the cross-coupling products partly perfluorinated biaryl crystals. They range from arene–perfluoroarene interactions (2-(perfluorophenyl)naphthalene and 2,3,4-trifluorobiphenyl) to arene–arene (9-perfluorophenyl)anthracene) and perfluoroarene–perfluoroarene (2,3,4,5,6-pentafluoro-2’methylbiphenyl) interactions.
Chapter 3
In this chapter, the efficient Pd-catalyzed homocoupling reaction of aryl pinacol pinacol boronates (ArF–Bpin) that contain two ortho-fluorines is presented. The reaction must be conducted in a “noncoordinating” solvent such as toluene, benzene, or m-xylene and, notably, stronger coordinating solvents or ancillary ligands have to be avoided. Thus, the Pd center becomes more electron deficient and the reductive elimination becomes more favorable. The Pd-catalyzed homocoupling reaction of di-ortho-fluorinated aryl boronate derivatives is difficult in strongly coordinating solvents or in the presence of strong ancillary ligands, as the reaction stops at the [PdL2(2,6-C6F2+nH3-n)2] stage after the transmetalations without the reductive elimination taking place. It is known that the rate of reductive elimination of Ar–Ar from [ML2(Ar)(Ar)] complexes containing group-10 metals decreases in the order Arrich–Arpoor > Arrich–Arrich > Arpoor–Arpoor. Furthermore, reductive elimination of the most electron-poor diaryls, such as C6F5–C6F5, from [PdL2(C6F5)2] complexes is difficult and has been a challenge for 50 years, due to their high stability as the Pd–Caryl bond is strong. Thus, the Pd-catalyzed homocoupling of perfluoro phenyl boronates is found to be rather difficult.
Further investigation showed that stoichiometric reactions of C6F5Bpin, 2,4,6-trifluorophenyl–Bpin, or 2,6-difluorophenyl–Bpin with palladium acetate in MeCN stops at the double transmetalation step, as demonstrated by the isolation of cis-[Pd(MeCN)2(C6F5)2], cis-[Pd(MeCN)2(2,4,6-C6F3H2)2], and cis-[Pd(MeCN)2(2,6-C6F2H3)2] in quantitative yields. Thus, it can be concluded that the reductive elimination from diaryl-palladium complexes containing two ortho-fluorines in both aryl rings, is difficult even in a weakly coordinating solvent such as MeCN. Therefore, even less coordinating solvents are needed to make the Pd center more electron deficient. Reactions using “noncoordinating” arene solvents such as toluene, benzene, or m-xylene were conducted and found to be effective for the catalytic homocoupling of 2,6-C6F2+nH3-nBpin. The scope of the reactions was expanded. Using toluene as the solvent, the palladium-catalyzed homocoupling of ArF–Bpin derivatives containing one, two or no ortho-fluorines gave the coupled products in excellent yields without any difficulties.
DFT calculations at the B3LYP-D3/def2-TZVP/6-311+g(2d,p)/IEFPCM // B3LYP-D3/SDD/6-31g**/IEFPCM level of theory predicted an exergonic process and lower barrier (< 21 kcal/mol) for the reductive elimination of Pd(C6F5)2 complexes bearing arene ligands, compared to stronger coordinating solvents (acetonitrile, THF, SMe2, and PMe3), which have high barriers ( > 33.7 kcal/mol). Reductive elimination from [Pd(ηn-Ar)(C6F5)2] complexes have low barriers due to: (i) ring slippage of the arene ligand as a hapticity change from η6 in the reactant to ηn (n ≤ 3) in the transition state and the product, which led to less σ-repulsion; and (ii) more favorable π-back-bonding from Pd(ArF)2 to the arene fragment in the transition state.
Chapter 4
In this chapter, the efficient Pd-catalyzed C–Cl borylation of aryl chlorides containing two ortho-fluorines is presented. The reactions are conducted under base-free conditions to prevent the decomposition of the di-ortho-fluorinated aryl boronates, which are unstable in the presence of base. A combination of Pd(dba)2 (dba = dibenzylideneacetone) with SPhos (2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2′,6′-dimethoxybiphenyl) as a ligand is efficient to catalyze the C–Cl borylation of aryl chlorides containing two ortho-fluorine substituents without base, and the products were isolated in excellent yields. The substrate scope can be expanded to aryl chloride containing one or no ortho-fluorines and the borylated products were isolated in good to very good yield. This method provides a nice alternative to traditional methodologies using lithium or Grignard reagents.

T1 - Conjugated Polymers with BN Units in the Main Chain
T1 - Konjugierte Polymere mit BN-Einheiten in der Hauptkette
N2 - In recent years PI-conjugated organoboron polymers and BN-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons have attracted a lot of interest due to their great potential in organic electronics. However, there are only few known examples of conjugated polymers with BN units in their main chain. Within this work silazane cleavage with silicon-boron (Si/B) exchange for the synthesis of a novel class of inorganic-organic hybrid polymers is demonstrated. These polymers consist of alternating NBN and para-phenylene units in the main chain. Photophysical studies and TD-DFT calculations for the polymer and molecular model systems were carried out, revealing a low extent of PI-conjugation across the NBN units. The new polymers can be used as macromolecular polyligands by a cross-linking reaction with a ZrIV compound. In the next chapter the synthesis and characterization of the first poly(p-phenylene iminoborane) is presented. This novel inorganic–organic hybrid polymer can be described as a BN analogue of the well-known poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV) and is also accessible using the previously described Si/B exchange as synthetic strategy. Photophysical investigations and TD-DFT calculations on the polymer and corresponding model oligomers provide clear evidence for PI-conjugation across the B=N units and extension of the conjugation path with increasing chain length. Furthermore, a possible application of Si/B exchange for the synthesis of polysulfoximines was explored. Herein, diaryl sulfoximines and a p-phenylene bisborane serve as building blocks for new BN- and BO-doped alternating inorganic–organic hybrid copolymers. While the BN-linked polymers were accessible by a facile silicon/boron exchange protocol, the synthesis of polymers with B–O linkages in the main chain is achieved by salt elimination. In the last chapter the concept of Si/B exchange was investigated for the synthesis of BP-linked oligomers. Herein oligomers with sterically less demanding substituents (substituents: 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl or 2,4,6-tri-iso-propylphenyl) at the phosphorus are accessible using Si/B exchange, but the oligomer with Mes* (2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl) as substituent needed a salt elimination pathway to give the desired product. Experimental data and theoretical investigations indicate, that the P-substituent has a high influence on the geometry of the phosphorus center and therefore on the possible conjugation over the BP units.
N2 - In den letzten Jahren haben PI-konjugierte Organoborpolymere und BN-dotierte polyzyklische aromatische Kohlenwasserstoffe aufgrund ihres großen Potenzials in organischer Elektronik großes Interesse auf sich gezogen. In der Literatur sind jedoch nur wenige Beispiele für konjugierte Polymere mit BN-Einheiten in ihrer Hauptkette bekannt. In dieser Arbeit wird die Silazanspaltung mit Silizium-Bor (Si/B)-Austausch zur Synthese einer neuen Klasse von anorganisch-organischen Hybridpolymeren vorgestellt. Diese Polymere bestehen aus alternierenden NBN- und para-Phenylen-Einheiten in der Hauptkette. Es wurden photophysikalische Untersuchungen und TD-DFT-Berechnungen für das Polymer und molekulare Modellsysteme durchgeführt, welche auf ein geringes Ausmaß an PI-Konjugation über die NBN-Einheiten deuten. Durch eine Vernetzungsreaktion über ZrIV-Verbindungen besteht die Möglichkeit diese neuen Polymere als makromolekulare Polyliganden einzusetzen. Im nächsten Kapitel wird die Synthese und Charakterisierung des ersten Poly(p-phenyleniminoborans) vorgestellt. Dieses neue anorganisch-organische Hybridpolymer kann als ein BN-Analogon des bekannten Poly(p-phenylenvinylen) (PPV) beschrieben werden und ist auch über den zuvor beschriebenen Si/B-Austausch als Synthesestrategie zugänglich. Photophysikalische Untersuchungen und TD-DFT-Berechnungen an dem Polymer und an entsprechenden Oligomeren als Modellsystem liefern deutliche Hinweise auf eine PI-Konjugation über die B=N-Einheiten und eine Erweiterung der Konjugationslänge mit wachsender Kettenlänge. Weiterhin wurde die Anwendungsmöglichkeit des Si/B-Austausches für die Synthese von Polysulfoximinen untersucht. Dabei dienen Diarylsulfoximine und p-Phenylenbisboran als Bausteine für neue BN- und BO-dotierte alternierende anorganisch-organische Hybridkopolymere. Während die BN-verknüpften Polymere über den Silizium/Bor-Austausch als Synthesestrategie zugänglich waren, wird die Synthese der Polymere mit B-O-Bindungen in der Hauptkette durch eine Salzeliminierung erreicht. Im letzten Kapitel wurde das Konzept des Si/B-Austausches für die Synthese von BP-verknüpften Oligomeren untersucht. Dabei sind Oligomere mit sterisch weniger anspruchsvollen Substituenten (Substituenten: 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl oder 2,4,6-tri-iso-propylphenyl) am Phosphor mittels Si/B-Austausch zugänglich, während für die Synthese des Oligomers mit Mes* (2,4,6-tri-tert-Butylphenyl) als Substituent eine Salzeliminierung notwendig war um das gewünschte Produkt zu erhalten. Experimentelle Daten und theoretische Untersuchungen deuten darauf hin, dass der P-Substituent einen großen Einfluss auf die Geometrie des Phosphorzentrums und damit auf die mögliche Konjugation über die BP-Einheit hat.

T1 - N-Heterocyclic Silylenes as ambiphilic Reagents in Main Group Chemistry and as Ligands in Transition Metal Chemistry
T1 - N-Heterocyclische Silylene als ambiphile Reagenzien in der Hauptgruppenchemie und als Liganden in der Übergangsmetallchemie
N2 - This thesis reports on the applications of a particular N-heterocyclic silylene, Dipp2NHSi (1), as an ambiphilic reagent in main group chemistry and as a ligand in transition metal chemistry. One focus of the work lies in the evaluation of the differences in the reactivity of N-heterocyclic silylenes in main group element and transition metal chemistry in comparison with the in these areas nowadays ubiquitous N-heterocyclic carbenes. The first chapter gives an insight into the reactivity of Dipp2NHSi with respect to different types of main group element compounds. Silylene 1 was reacted with group 13 compounds. Adduct formation was observed with AlI3, Al(C6F5)3 and B(C6F5)3 which led to isolation of Dipp2NHSi·AlI3 (2), Dipp2NHSi·Al(C6F5)3 (3) and Dipp2NHSi·B(C6F5)3 (4). Furthermore, the reactivity of Dipp2NHSi (1) with respect to different elementhalide bonds was investigated. The reaction with elemental bromine and iodine leads to the dihalosilanes Dipp2NHSiBr2 (5) and Dipp2NHSiI2 (6). Utilizing methyl iodide, benzyl chloride and benzyl bromide, the insertion products Dipp2NHSi(I)(Me) (10), Dipp2NHSi(Cl)(benzyl) (11) and Dipp2NHSi(Br)(benzyl) (12) are obtained. Thus, insertion is preferred to reductive coupling with formation of RH2C–CH2R (R = H, Ph) and the corresponding dihalosilane. The reaction of 1 with Me3SnCl leads to the diazabutene {(Me3Sn)N(Dipp)CH}2 (9). The reaction of 1 with Ph2SnCl2 gives exclusively Dipp2NHSiCl2 (8) and cyclic polystannanes (Ph2Sn)n. The reactivity of 1 towards selected 1,3-dipolar compounds was also examined and Dipp2NHSi was reacted with azides of different size. The reaction with adamantyl azide led to the formation of the tetrazoline 13. For the reaction with the sterically less demanding trimethylsilyl azide the azido silane Dipp2NHSi(N(SiMe3)2)(N3) (14) and the degradation product 14* was isolated. The cyclosilamine 15 was formed from the reaction of 1 with 2,6-(diphenyl)phenyl azide. The bonding situation and ligation properties of Dipp2NHSi in transition metal complexes was assessed in the second part of the thesis by means of theoretical calculations and experimental investigations. Calculations on the main electronic features of Me2Im/Me2NHSi and Dipp2NHSi/Dipp2Im revealed significant differences in the frontier orbital region of these compounds, which affect the ligation properties of NHSis in general. It was demonstrated that NHSis show significantly different behaviour concerning their coordination chemistry. In particular, one energetically low lying π-acceptor orbital seems to determine the coordination chemistry of these ligands. To provide experimental support for these calculations, the silylene complexes [M(CO)5(Dipp2NHSi)] (M = Cr 16, Mo 17, W 18) were synthesized from Dipp2NHSi and [M(CO)6] (M = Cr, Mo, W) and the tungsten NHSi complex 18 was compared to the NHC complexes [W(CO)5(iPr2Im)] (19), [W(CO)5(iPr2ImMe)] (20) and [W(CO)5(Me2ImMe)] (21). The bonding of Me2Im and Me2NHSi (= L) to transition metal complexes has been assessed with DFT calculations for the model systems [Ni(L)], [Ni(CO)3(L)], and [W(CO)5(L)]. These studies revealed some common features in the difference between M–NHSi and M–NHC bonding which largely affect the bonding situation in transition metal complexes. NHSis show a propensity for bridging two metal atoms which was demonstrated on three different examples. Dipp2NHSi reacts with [Ni(CO)4] to form the dinuclear silylene-bridged complex [{Ni(CO)2(μ-Dipp2NHSi)}2] (22) upon CO elimination. The reduction of [Ni(η5-C5H5)2] with lithium naphthalenide in the presence of Dipp2NHSi yielded the NHSi-bridged Ni(I) dimer [{(η5 C5H5)Ni(µ-Dipp2NHSi)}2] (23). The dimeric half-sandwich complex [{(η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)2}2] led upon reaction with Dipp2NHSi to the formation of the dinuclear, NHSi-bridged complex [{(η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)}2(µ-CO)(µ-Dipp2NHSi)] (24). The insertion of Dipp2NHSi into metal halide bonds was investigated in a series of manganese complexes [Mn(CO)5(X)] (X = Cl, Br, I). The reaction of Dipp2NHSi with [Mn(CO)5(I)] led to substitution of two carbonyl ligands with Dipp2NHSi (1) to afford the tricarbonyl complex [Mn(CO)3(Dipp2NHSi)2(I)] (25). In 25, the iodide ligand is aligned in the {Mn(CO)3} plane, located between both NHSi silicon atoms. Treatment of [Mn(CO)5(Br)] with two equivalents of Dipp2NHSi afforded the complex [Mn(CO)3(Dipp2NHSi)2(Br)] (26), in which the bromide ligand is distorted towards one of the NHSi ligands. The reaction of the silylene ligand with [Mn(CO)5(Cl)] at room temperature afforded a mixture of two products, [Mn(CO)3(Dipp2NHSi)2(Cl)] (27*) and the insertion product [Mn(CO)4(Dipp2NHSi)(Dipp2NHSi-Cl)] (27). Complete transfer of a halide to the silylene was achieved for the reaction of Dipp2NHSi with [(η5-C5H5)Ni(PPh3)(Cl)] to yield [Ni(PPh3)(η5-C5H5)(Dipp2NHSi-Cl)] (28). Similarly, the reaction with [(η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)2(I)] led to the formation of [(η5 C5H5)Fe(CO)2(Dipp2NHSi-I)] (29).
N2 - Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit den Anwendungen des N-heterocyclischen Silylens Dipp2NHSi (1) als ambiphiles Reagenz in der Hauptgruppenchemie und als Ligand in der Übergangsmetallchemie. Ein Schwerpunkt dieser Arbeit ist die Beurteilung der Unterschiede in der Reaktivität von N-heterocyclischen Silylenen in der Hauptgruppen- und Übergangsmetallchemie im Vergleich zu den heutzutage allgegenwärtigen N heterocyclischen Carbenen. Im Verlauf dieser Studie wurde Silylen 1 mit Verbindungen der Gruppe 13 umgesetzt und die Addukte Dipp2NHSi·AlI3 (2), Dipp2NHSi·Al(C6F5)3 (3) und Dipp2NHSi·B(C6F5)3 (4) isoliert. Weiterhin wurde die Reaktivität von Dipp2NHSi (1) in Bezug auf ElementHalogen-Bindungen verschiedener Hauptgruppenelement-Verbindungen untersucht. Die Umsetzung mit elementarem Brom und Iod führt zu den Dihalogensilanen Dipp2NHSiBr2 (5) und Dipp2NHSiI2 (6). Unter Verwendung von Methyliodid, Benzylchlorid und Benzylbromid konnten die Insertionsprodukte Dipp2NHSi(I)(Me) (10), Dipp2NHSi(Cl)(benzyl) (11) und Dipp2NHSi(Br)(benzyl) (12) gebildet werden. Die Insertion ist gegenüber der reduktiven Kupplung unter Ausbildung von RH2C–CH2R (R = H, Ph) und dem Dihalosilan bevorzugt. Die Umsetzung von 1 mit dem Zinnchlorid Me3SnCl führt Bildung des Diazabutens {(Me3Sn)N(Dipp)CH}2 (9). Die Reaktion mit Ph2SnCl2 hingegen ergibt das Dichlorsilan Dipp2NHSiCl2 (8) sowie cyclische Polystannane der Form (Ph2Sn)n. Außerdem wurde Dipp2NHSi mit Aziden unterschiedlichen sterischen Anspruchs umgesetzt. Die Reaktion mit Adamantylazid führt zur Bildung des Tetrazolins 13. Das sterisch weniger anspruchsvolle Trimethylsilylazid reagiert mit Dipp2NHSi unter Bildung des Silylazids Dipp2NHSi(N(SiMe3)2)(N3) (14). Das Cyclosilamin 15 wird durch die Reaktion von 1 mit 2,6-(Diphenyl)phenylazid gebildet. Im zweiten Teil der Arbeit wurden die Bindungssituation und die Ligandeneigenschaften von Dipp2NHSi (1) in Übergangsmetallkomplexen mithilfe von theoretischen Rechnungen und experimentellen Untersuchungen beleuchtet. DFT-Rechnungen zu den grundlegenden elektronischen Eigenschaften von Me2Im/Me2NHSi und Dipp2Im/Dipp2NHSi ergaben signifikante Unterschiede im Bereich der Grenzorbitale, welche die Bindungssituation von NHSis im Allgemeinen beeinflussen. Insbesondere ein energetisch tiefliegendes π-Orbital scheint die Koordinationschemie dieser Liganden zu bestimmen. Zur Unterstützung der theoretischen Befunde wurden die Silylen-Komplexe M(CO)5(Dipp2NHSi)] (M = Cr 16, Mo 17, W 18) durch Umsetzung von Dipp2NHSi und [M(CO)6] (M= Cr, Mo, W) dargestellt und der Wolframkomplex 18 mit den NHC-Komplexen [W(CO)5(iPr2Im)] (19), [W(CO)5(iPr2ImMe)] (20) und [W(CO)5(Me2ImMe)] (21) verglichen. Die Bindung von Me2Im und Me2NHSi (= L) und Übergangsmetallkomplexen wurde für die verschiedenen Modellverbindungen [Ni(L)], [Ni(CO)3(L)] und [W(CO)5(L)] mittels DFT Rechnungen untersucht, wobei einige Unterschiede zwischen den M–NHSi und M–NHC Bindungen festgestellt wurden, welche die Bindungssituation in Übergangsmetallkomplexen stark beeinflussen. Im Unterschied zu NHCs zeigen N-heterocyclische Silylene eine Neigung zur Verbrückung zweier Metallzentren und dieses Verhalten konnte anhand dreier Beispielen belegt werden. Dipp2NHSi (1) reagiert mit [Ni(CO)4] zum Silylen-verbrückten Nickelkomplex [{Ni(CO)2(μ-Dipp2NHSi)}2] (22). Die Reduktion von Nickelocen mit Lithiumnaphthalid in der Gegenwart von Dipp2NHSi (1) führt zur Bildung des NHSi verbrückten, Ni(I)-Dimers [(η5-C5H5)Ni(µ-Dipp2NHSi)]2 (23). Ähnlich hierzu reagiert der dimere Komplex {[(η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)2]2} mit Dipp2NHSi zum Silylen-verbrückten dinuklearen Komplex [{(η5 C5H5)Fe(CO)}2(µ-CO)(µ-Dipp2NHSi)] (24). Weiterhin wurde die Insertion von Dipp2NHSi (1) in MetallHalogen-Bindungen anhand einer Reihe von Mangankomplexen der Form [Mn(CO)5(X)] (X = Cl, Br, I) untersucht. Die Reaktion von zwei Äquivalenten des Silylens 1 mit dem Iodokomplex [Mn(CO)5(I)] führt zur Bildung des Tricarbonylkomplexes [Mn(CO)3(Dipp2NHSi)2(I)] (25), in dem der Iodidligand symmetrisch zwischen den beiden Siliciumatomen der Silylenliganden in der {Mn(CO)3}-Ebene liegt. Ähnlich hierzu wird der Bis-Silylenkomplex [Mn(CO)3(Dipp2NHSi)2(Br)] (26) durch Umsetzung von [Mn(CO)5(Br)] mit 1 erhalten, wobei eine Wechselwirkung des Bromidliganden mit einem Silylenliganden beobachtet wird. Die Reaktion von Dipp2NHSi 1 mit [Mn(CO)5(Cl)] bei Raumtemperatur resultiert in der Bildung zweier Reaktionsprodukte, dem Bis-Silylenkomplex [Mn(CO)3(Dipp2NHSi)2(Cl)] (27*) und dem Insertionsprodukt [Mn(CO)4(Dipp2NHSi)(Dipp2NHSi-Cl)] (27). Die vollständige Übertragung des Halogenidoliganden auf das Siliciumatom von 1 kann auch für den Halb-Sandwich-Komplex [(η5-C5H5)Ni(PPh3)(Cl)] beobachtet werden, wobei der Komplex [Ni(PPh3)(η5-C5H5)(Dipp2NHSi-Cl)] (28) isoliert wird. Ähnlich hierzu führt die Reaktion von [(η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)2(I)] mit dem Silylen 1 ebenfalls zur Bildung des Insertionsproduktes [(η5 C5H5)Fe(CO)2(Dipp2NHSi-I)] (29).

T1 - Ni-Catalyzed Borylation of Aryl Sulfoxides
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - A nickel/N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalytic system has been developed for the borylation of aryl sulfoxides with B\(_{2}\)(neop)\(_{2}\) (neop=neopentyl glycolato). A wide range of aryl sulfoxides with different electronic and steric properties were converted into the corresponding arylboronic esters in good yields. The regioselective borylation of unsymmetric diaryl sulfoxides was also feasible leading to borylation of the sterically less encumbered aryl substituent. Competition experiments demonstrated that an electron-deficient aryl moiety reacts preferentially. The origin of the selectivity in the Ni-catalyzed borylation of electronically biased unsymmetrical diaryl sulfoxide lies in the oxidative addition step of the catalytic cycle, as oxidative addition of methoxyphenyl 4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl sulfoxide to the Ni(0) complex occurs selectively to give the structurally characterized complex trans-[Ni(ICy)\(_{2}\)(4-CF\(_{3}\)-C\(_{6}\)H\(_{4}\)){(SO)-4-MeO-C\(_{6}\)H\(_{4}\)}] 4. For complex 5, the isomer trans-[Ni(ICy)\(_{2}\)(C\(_{6}\)H\(_{5}\))(OSC\(_{6}\)H\(_{5}\))] 5-I was structurally characterized in which the phenyl sulfinyl ligand is bound via the oxygen atom to nickel. In solution, the complex trans-[Ni(ICy)\(_{2}\)(C\(_{6}\)H\(_{5}\))(OSC\(_{6}\)H\(_{5}\))] 5-I is in equilibrium with the S-bonded isomer trans-[Ni(ICy)\(_{2}\)(C\(_{6}\)H\(_{5}\))(SOC\(_{6}\)H\(_{5}\))] 5, as shown by NMR spectroscopy. DFT calculations reveal that these isomers are separated by a mere 0.3 kJ/mol (M06/def2-TZVP-level of theory) and connected via a transition state trans-[Ni(ICy)\(_{2}\)(C\(_{6}\)H\(_{5}\))(η\(^{2}\)-{SO}-C\(_{6}\)H\(_{5}\))], which lies only 10.8 kcal/mol above 5.

T1 - Transition metal catalyst-free, base-promoted 1,2-additions of polyfluorophenylboronates to aldehydes and ketones
JF - Angewandte Chemie International Edition
N2 - A novel protocol for the transition metal-free 1,2-addition of polyfluoroaryl boronate esters to aldehydes and ketones is reported, which provides secondary alcohols, tertiary alcohols, and ketones. Control experiments and DFT calculations indicate that both the ortho-F substituents on the polyfluorophenyl boronates and the counterion K\(^+\) in the carbonate base are critical. The distinguishing features of this procedure include the employment of commercially available starting materials and the broad scope of the reaction with a wide variety of carbonyl compounds giving moderate to excellent yields. Intriguing structural features involving O−H⋅⋅⋅O and O−H⋅⋅⋅N hydrogen bonding, as well as arene-perfluoroarene interactions, in this series of racemic polyfluoroaryl carbinols have also been addressed.

JF - Angewandte Chemie International Edition
N2 - The first examples of Lewis base adducts of the parent boraphosphaketene (H\(_2\)B-PCO) and their cyclodimers are prepared. One of these adducts is shown to undergo mild decarbonylation and phosphinidene insertion into a B−C bond of a borole, forming very rare examples of 1,2-phosphaborinines, B/P isosteres of benzene. The strong donor properties of these 1,2-phosphaborinines are confirmed by the synthesis of their π complexes with the Group 6 metals.

T1 - Ligand Design for Ru(II) Photosensitizers in Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution
T1 - Ligandendesign für Ru(II)-Photosensibilisatoren in der photokatalytischen Wasserstoffentwicklung
T1 - Conception de ligands pour les photosensibilisateurs de Ru(II) dans l'évolution photocatalytique de l'hydrogène
N2 - This thesis investigates different ligand designs for Ru(II) complexes and the activity of the complexes as photosensitizer (PS) in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. The catalytic system typically contains a catalyst, a sacrificial electron donor (SED) and a PS, which needs to exhibit strong absorption and luminescence, as well as reversible redox behavior. Electron-withdrawing pyridine substituents on the terpyridine metal ion receptor result in an increase of excited-state lifetime and quantum yield (Φ = 74*10-5; τ = 3.8 ns) and lead to complex III-C1 exhibiting activity as PS. While the turn-over frequency (TOFmax) and turn-over number (TON) are relatively low (TOFmax = 57 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1; TON(44 h) = 134 mmolH2 molPS-1), the catalytic system is long-lived, losing only 20% of its activity over the course of 12 days. Interestingly, the heteroleptic design in III-C1 proves to be beneficial for the performance as PS, despite III-C1 having comparable photophysical and electrochemical properties as the homoleptic complex IV-C2 (TOFmax = 35 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1; TON(24 h) = 14 mmolH2 molPS-1). Reductive quenching of the excited PS by the SED is identified as rate-limiting step in both cases.
Hence, the ligands are designed to be more electron-accepting either via N-methylation of the peripheral pyridine substituents or introduction of a pyrimidine ring in the metal ion receptor, leading to increased excited-state lifetimes (τ = 9–40 ns) and luminescence quantum yields (Φ = 40–400*10-5). However, the more electron-accepting character of the ligands also results in anodically shifted reduction potentials, leading to a lack of driving force for the electron transfer from the reduced PS to the catalyst. Hence, this electron transfer step is found to be a limiting factor to the overall performance of the PS. While higher TOFmax in hydrogen evolution experiments are observed for pyrimidine-containing PS (TOFmax = 300–715 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1), the longevity for these systems is reduced with half-life times of 2–6 h.
Expansion of the pyrimidine-containing ligands to dinuclear complexes yields a stronger absorptivity (ε = 100–135*103 L mol-1 cm-1), increased luminescence (τ = 90–125 ns, Φ = 210–350*10-5) and can also result in higher TOFmax given sufficient driving force for electron transfer to the catalyst (TOFmax = 1500 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1). When comparing complexes with similar driving forces, stronger luminescence is reflected in a higher TOFmax. Besides thermodynamic considerations, kinetic effects and electron transfer efficiency are assumed to impact the observed activity in hydrogen evolution. In summary, this work shows that targeted ligand design can make the previously disregarded group of Ru(II) complexes with tridentate ligands attractive candidates for use as PS in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.
N2 - In dieser Arbeit werden verschiedene Liganden für Ru(II)-Komplexe und die Aktivität der Komplexe als Photosensibilisatoren (PS) in der photokatalytischen Wasserstoffentwicklung untersucht. Das katalytische System besteht typischerweise aus einem Katalysator, einem Opferelektronendonator (SED) und einem PS, welcher eine starke Absorption und Lumineszenz sowie ein reversibles Redoxverhalten aufweisen sollte. Elektronenziehende Pyridin-Substituenten am Terpyridin-Metallionenrezeptor resultieren in einer Erhöhung der Lebensdauer des angeregten Zustands sowie der Quantenausbeute (Φ = 74*10-5; τ = 3.8 ns), was dazu führt, dass Komplex III-C1 als PS aktiv ist. Während die Wechselzahl (TOFmax) und der Umsatz (TON) relativ niedrig sind (TOFmax = 57 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1; TON(44 h) = 134 mmolH2 molPS 1), ist das katalytische System langlebig und verliert im Laufe von 12 Tagen nur 20% seiner Aktivität. Das heteroleptische Design in III-C1 erweist sich als vorteilhaft für die Leistung als PS, obwohl III-C1 vergleichbare photophysikalische und elektrochemische Eigenschaften besitzt wie der homoleptische Komplex IV-C2 (TOFmax = 35 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1; TON(24 h) = 14 mmolH2 molPS-1). In beiden Fällen erweist sich das reduktive Lumineszenzlöschen des angeregten PS durch den SED als geschwindigkeitsbestimmender Schritt.
Daher werden die Liganden entweder durch N-Methylierung der peripheren Pyridin-Substituenten oder durch Einführung eines Pyrimidinrings in den Metallionenrezeptor elektronenziehender gestaltet, was zu erhöhten Lebensdauern des angeregten Zustands (τ = 9–40 ns) und Lumineszenzquantenausbeuten (Φ = 40–400*10-5) führt. Der stärker elektronenziehende Charakter der Liganden führt allerdings auch zu anodisch verschobenen Reduktionspotentialen, wodurch die treibende Kraft für den Elektronentransfer vom reduzierten PS zum Katalysator reduziert wird. Daher erweist sich dieser Elektronentransferschritt als ein limitierender Faktor für die Gesamtleistung des PS. Während höhere TOFmax in Wasserstoffproduktionsexperimenten für Pyrimidin-haltige PS beobachtet werden (TOFmax = 300–715 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1), ist die Langlebigkeit für diese Systeme mit Halbwertszeiten von 2–6 h deutlich reduziert.
Die Erweiterung der Pyrimidin-haltigen Liganden zu zweikernigen Komplexen führt zu einem stärkeren Absorptionsvermögen (ε = 100–135*103 L mol-1 cm-1), erhöhter Lumineszenz (τ = 90–125 ns, Φ = 210–350*10-5) und kann bei ausreichender treibender Kraft für den Elektronentransfer zum Katalysator auch zu einer höheren TOFmax führen (TOFmax = 1500 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1). Beim Vergleich von Komplexen mit ähnlichen treibenden Kräften spiegelt sich die stärkere Lumineszenz in einem höheren TOFmax wider. Es wird angenommen, dass neben thermodynamischen Faktoren auch kinetische Effekte und die Effizienz des Elektronentransfers die beobachtete Aktivität bei der Wasserstoffentwicklung beeinflussen. Zusammenfassend zeigt diese Arbeit, dass gezieltes Ligandendesign die bisher vernachlässigte Gruppe der Ru(II)-Komplexe mit tridentaten Liganden zu attraktiven Kandidaten für den Einsatz als PS in der photokatalytischen Wasserstoffentwicklung machen kann.
N2 - Cette thèse étudie la conception de différentes ligands pour les complexes de Ru(II) et leur activité comme photosensibilisateur (PS) dans l'évolution photocatalytique de l'hydrogène. Le système catalytique contient généralement un catalyseur, un donneur d'électron sacrificiel (SED) et un PS, qui doit présenter une forte absorption et luminescence et un comportement redox réversible. Les substituants pyridine attracteurs d'électrons sur le récepteur d'ions métalliques terpyridine entraînent une augmentation de la durée de vie de l'état excité et du rendement quantique (Φ = 74*10-5; τ = 3.8 ns) et permettent au complexe III-C1 de présenter une activité en tant que PS. Bien que la fréquence (TOFmax) et le nombre de cycle catalytique (TON) soient relativement faibles (TOFmax = 57 mmolH2 molPS-1 min 1; TON(44 h) = 134 mmolH2 molPS-1), le système catalytique a une longue durée de vie, ne perdant que 20% de son activité au cours de 12 jours. De manière intéressante, la conception hétérolytique dans III-C1 s'avère être bénéfique pour la performance en tant que PS, malgré des propriétés photophysiques et électrochimiques comparables à celles du complexe homoleptique IV-C2 (TOFmax = 35 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1; TON(24 h) = 14 mmolH2 molPS-1). L'extinction réductive de la PS excitée par le SED est identifiée comme l'étape limitant la vitesse dans les deux cas.
Par conséquent, les ligands sont modifiés pour être plus accepteurs d'électrons, soit par N-méthylation des substituants pyridine périphériques, soit par introduction d'un cycle pyrimidine dans le récepteur d'ion métallique, ce qui conduit à une augmentation des durées de vie des états excités (τ = 9–40 ns) et des rendements quantiques de luminescence (Φ = 40–400*10-5). Cependant, le caractère plus accepteur d'électrons des ligands entraîne également des potentiels de réduction décalés anodiquement, ce qui conduit à un manque de force motrice pour le transfert d'électrons du PS réduit au catalyseur. Ainsi, cette étape de transfert d'électrons s'avère être un facteur limitant de la performance globale du PS. Alors que des TOFmax plus élevés dans les expériences d'évolution de l'hydrogène sont observés pour les PS contenant le motif pyrimidine (TOFmax = 300–715 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1), la longévité de ces systèmes est réduite avec des temps de demi-vie de 2–6 h.
L'expansion des ligands contenant le motif pyrimidine en complexes dinucléaires conduit à une absorptivité plus forte (ε = 100–135*103 L mol-1 cm-1), une luminescence accrue (τ = 90–125 ns, Φ = 210–350*10-5) et peut également entraîner un TOFmax plus élevé si la force motrice est suffisante pour le transfert d'électrons vers le catalyseur (1500 mmolH2 molPS-1 min-1). En comparant des complexes avec des forces motrices similaires, une luminescence plus forte se traduit par un TOFmax plus élevé. Outre les considérations thermodynamiques, les effets cinétiques et l'efficacité du transfert d'électrons sont supposés avoir un impact sur l'activité observée dans l'évolution de l'hydrogène. En résumé, ce travail montre que la conception ciblée de ligands peut faire du groupe précédemment négligé des complexes de Ru(II) avec des ligands tridentés des candidats attrayants pour une utilisation comme PS dans l'évolution photocatalytique de l'hydrogène.

N2 - Innerhalb der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es gelungen, durch das Einführen von Cymantrenylresten neue Diborene darzustellen, welche Halbsandwich-Substituenten tragen und somit das Substitutionsmuster von basenstabilisierten Diborenen um eine weitere Verbindungsklasse zu erweitern. Neben Cymantrenylresten gelang es auch, Ferrocenylreste als weitere Substituenten in entsprechende Diborensysteme einzuführen. Über die Darstellung neuer Diborensysteme hinaus, waren Reaktivitätsstudien am Diboraferrocenophan 29 ebenso ein wesentlicher Bestandteil der vorliegenden Arbeit. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass 29 mit kleinen Lewis-Basen, Element-Wasserstoff-Verbindungen und Hydrierungsreagenzien zur Reaktion gebracht werden kann.
N2 - The work in this project resulted in the synthesis of new diborenes with cymantrenyl substituents. With these half-sandwich substituents it was possible to expand the substitution pattern of base-stabilized diborenes by further examples. In addition to cymantrenyl substituents, ferrocenyl substituents were introduced into the corresponding diborene systems. In addition to the synthesis of new diborene systems, reactivity studies on the diboraferrocenophane 29 constituted another major component of the present work. It was shown that 29 reacts with small Lewis-bases, element-hydrogen compounds, and hydrogenation reagents.

T1 - Antimicrobial Activity of the Manganese Photoactivated Carbon Monoxide-Releasing Molecule [Mn(CO)\(_3\)(tpa-kappa\(^3\)N)]\(^+\) Against a Pathogenic Escherichia coli that Causes Urinary Infections
JF - Antioxidants & Redox Signaling
N2 - Aims: We set out to investigate the antibacterial activity of a new Mn-based photoactivated carbon monoxide-releasing molecule (PhotoCORM, [Mn(CO)\(_3\)(tpa-kappa\(^3\)N)]\(^+\)) against an antibiotic-resistant uropathogenic strain (EC958) of Escherichia coli. Results: Activated PhotoCORM inhibits growth and decreases viability of E. coli EC958, but non-illuminated carbon monoxide-releasing molecule (CORM) is without effect. NADH-supported respiration rates are significantly decreased by activated PhotoCORM, mimicking the effect of dissolved CO gas. CO from the PhotoCORM binds to intracellular targets, namely respiratory oxidases in strain EC958 and a bacterial globin heterologously expressed in strain K-12. However, unlike previously characterized CORMs, the PhotoCORM is not significantly accumulated in cells, as deduced from the cellular manganese content. Activated PhotoCORM reacts avidly with hydrogen peroxide producing hydroxyl radicals; the observed peroxide-enhanced toxicity of the PhotoCORM is ameliorated by thiourea. The PhotoCORM also potentiates the effect of the antibiotic, doxycycline. Innovation: The present work investigates for the first time the antimicrobial activity of a light-activated PhotoCORM against an antibiotic-resistant pathogen. A comprehensive study of the effects of the PhotoCORM and its derivative molecules upon illumination is performed and mechanisms of toxicity of the activated PhotoCORM are investigated. Conclusion: The PhotoCORM allows a site-specific and time-controlled release of CO in bacterial cultures and has the potential to provide much needed information on the generality of CORM activities in biology. Understanding the mechanism(s) of activated PhotoCORM toxicity will be key in exploring the potential of this and similar compounds as antimicrobial agents, perhaps in combinatorial therapies with other agents.

T1 - Highly Emissive 9-Borafluorene Derivatives: Synthesis, Photophysical Properties and Device Fabrication
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - A series of 9-borafluorene derivatives, functionalised with electron-donating groups, have been prepared. Some of these 9-borafluorene compounds exhibit strong yellowish emission in solution and in the solid state with relatively high quantum yields (up to 73.6 % for FMesB-Cz as a neat film). The results suggest that the highly twisted donor groups suppress charge transfer, but the intrinsic photophysical properties of the 9-borafluorene systems remain. The new compounds showed enhanced stability towards the atmosphere, and exhibited excellent thermal stability, revealing their potential for application in materials science. Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) devices were fabricated with two of the highly emissive compounds, and they exhibited strong yellow-greenish electroluminescence, with a maximum luminance intensity of >22 000 cd m\(^{-2}\). These are the first two examples of 9-borafluorene derivatives being used as light-emitting materials in OLED devices, and they have enabled us to achieve a balance between maintaining their intrinsic properties while improving their stability.

T1 - N‐Heterocyclic Carbene and Cyclic (Alkyl)(amino)carbene Adducts of Antimony(III)
JF - European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry
N2 - A systematic study on Lewis-acid/base adducts of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and the cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene cAAC\(^{Me}\) (1-(2,6-di-iso-propylphenyl)-3,3,5,5-tetramethyl-pyrrolidin-2-ylidene) with antimony(III) chlorides of the general formula SbCl\(_{2}\)R (R=Cl, Ph, Mes) is presented. The reaction of the NHCs Me\(_{2}\)Im\(^{Me}\) (1,3,4,5-tetra-methyl-imidazolin-2-ylidene), iPr\(_{2}\)Im\(^{Me}\) (1,3-di-isopropyl-4,5-dimethyl-imidazolin-2-ylidene), Mes\(_{2}\)Im, Dipp\(_{2}\)Im (R\(_{2}\)Im=1,3-di-organyl-imidazolin-2-ylidene; Mes=2,4,6-trimethylphenyl, Dipp=2,6-di-isopropylphenyl) and cAAC\(^{Me}\) with antimony(III) compounds SbCl\(_{2}\)R (R=Cl (1), Ph (2) and Mes (3)) yields the adducts NHC ⋅ SbCl\(_{2}\)R (R=Cl (4), Ph (5) and Mes (6); NHC=Me\(_{2}\)Im\(^{Me}\) (a), iPr\(_{2}\)Im\(^{Me}\) (b), Dipp\(_{2}\)Im (c) and Mes\(_{2}\)Im (d)) and cAAC\(^{Me}\) ⋅ SbCl\(_{2}\)R (R=Cl (4 e) and Ph (5 e)). Thermal treatment of (Dipp\(_{2}\)Im) ⋅ SbCl\(_{2}\)Ar (Ar=Ph (5 c) and Mes (6 c)) in benzene leads to isomerization to the backbone coordinated \(^{a}\)NHC-adduct \(^{a}\)Dipp\(_{2}\)Im ⋅ SbCl\(_{2}\)Ar (Ar=Mes (7) and Ph (8)) (\(^{"a"}\) denotes “abnormal” coordination mode of the NHC) in high yields. One of the chloride substituents at antimony of 7 can be abstracted by GaCl3 or Ag[BF\(_{4}\)] to obtain the imidazolium salts [\(^{a}\)Dipp\(_{2}\)Im ⋅ SbClMes][BF\(_{4}\)] (9) and [\(^{a}\)Dipp\(_{2}\)Im ⋅ SbClMes][GaCl\(_{4}\)] (10).

T1 - 2- and 2,7-substituted para-N-methylpyridinium pyrenes: syntheses, molecular and electronic structures, photophysical, electrochemical, and spectroelectrochemical properties and binding to double-stranded (ds) DNA
JF - Chemistry - A European Journal
N2 - Two N-methylpyridinium compounds and analogous N-protonated salts of 2- and 2,7-substituted 4-pyridyl-pyrene compounds were synthesised and their crystal structures, photophysical properties both in solution and in the solid state, electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties were studied. Upon methylation or protonation, the emission maxima are significantly bathochromically shifted compared to the neutral compounds, although the absorption maxima remain almost unchanged. As a result, the cationic compounds show very large apparent Stokes shifts of up to 7200 cm\(^{-1}\). The N-methylpyridinium compounds have a single reduction at ca. −1.5 V vs. Fc/Fc\(^+\) in MeCN. While the reduction process was reversible for the 2,7-disubstituted compound, it was irreversible for the mono-substituted one. Experimental findings are complemented by DFT and TD-DFT calculations. Furthermore, the N-methylpyridinium compounds show strong interactions with calf thymus (ct)-DNA, presumably by intercalation, which paves the way for further applications of these multi-functional compounds as potential DNA-bioactive agents.

T1 - Copper-catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of highly fluorinated aryl boronate esters with aryl iodides and bromides and fluoroarene-arene π-stacking interactions in the products
JF - ChemCatChem
N2 - A combination of copper iodide and phenanthroline as the ligand is an efficient catalyst for Suzuki‐Miyaura cross‐coupling of highly fluorinated boronate esters (aryl−Bpin) with aryl iodides and bromides to generate fluorinated biaryls in good to excellent yields. This method represents a nice alternative to traditional cross‐coupling methods which require palladium catalysts and stoichiometric amounts of silver oxide. We note that π⋅⋅⋅π stacking interactions dominate the molecular packing in the partly fluorinated biaryl crystals investigated herein. They are present either between the arene and perfluoroarene, or solely between arenes or perfluoroarenes, respectively.

T1 - Spectroscopic studies of food colorings
JF - World Journal of Chemical Education
N2 - In chemical education, it is often a challenge to understand the basic principles of spectroscopic techniques due to missing connections to the real world. Therefore, the present contribution offers context-based applications of UV/Vis spectroscopy for analytics of food colorings with which learners can improve their skills regarding this method. The spectroscopic determination of food colorings seems to be a promising approach due to the long tradition and omnipresence of dyes in supermarket products. The therefor-required spectral data for commonly used dyes are provided for educational usage. Qualitative and quantitative analytics of food colorings in four different lemonades and chocolate beans have been used to introduce learners to important analytical techniques like sample preparation or elimination of confounding factors. These analytics also display the limitations of the method in the visible range of light in the case of tartrazine and curcumin. By applying Lambert-Beer-Bouguer’s Law in different variations, typical calculations of concentrations can be studied in quantitative analyses. The studied food samples demonstrate the different usage of food colorings depending on the country of sale. Finally, a 3D-printable low-cost photometer suitable for the discussed quantitative analytics in educational contexts is presented.

T1 - Intramolecular ring expansion reaction (RER) and intermolecular coordination of in situ generated Cyclic (Amino)(Aryl)Carbenes (cAArCs)
JF - Chemistry - A European Journal
N2 - Cyclic (amino)(aryl)carbenes (cAArCs) based on the isoindoline core were successfully generated in situ by α‐elimination of 3‐alkoxyisoindolines at high temperatures or by deprotonation of isoindol‐2‐ium chlorides with sodium or copper(I) acetates at low temperatures. 3‐Alkoxy‐isoindolines 2 a ,b‐OR (R=Me, Et, i Pr) have been prepared in high yields by the addition of a solution of 2‐aryl‐1,1‐diphenylisoindol‐2‐ium triflate (1 a ,b‐OTf ; a : aryl=Dipp=2,6‐diisopropylphenyl; b : Mesityl‐, Mes=2,4,6‐trimethylphenyl) to the corresponding alcohol (ROH) with NEt3 at room temperature. Furthermore, the reaction of 2 a ,b‐OMe in diethyl ether with a tenfold excess of hydrochloric acid led to the isolation of the isoindol‐2‐ium chlorides 1 a ,b‐Cl in high yields. The thermally generated cAArC reacts with sulfur to form the thioamide 3 a . Without any additional trapping reagent, in situ generation of 1,1‐diphenylisoidolin‐3‐ylidenes does not lead to the isolation of these compounds, but to the reaction products of the insertion of the carbene carbon atom into an ortho C−H bond of a phenyl substituent, followed by ring‐expansion reaction; namely, anthracene derivatives 9‐N(H)aryl‐10‐Ph‐C14H8 4 a ,b (a : Dipp; b : Mes). These compounds are conveniently synthesized by deprotonation of the isoindol‐2‐ium chlorides with sodium acetate in high yields. Deprotonation of 1 a‐Cl with copper(I) acetate at low temperatures afforded a mixture of 4 a and the corresponding cAArC copper(I) chloride 5 a , and allowed the isolation and structural characterization of the first example of a cAArC copper complex of general formula [(cAArC)CuCl].

T1 - A Quadrupolar Bis-Triarylborane Chromophore as a Fluorimetric and Chirooptic Probe for Simultaneous and Selective Sensing of DNA, RNA and Proteins
JF - Chemistry - A European Journal
N2 - A water‐soluble tetracationic quadrupolar bis‐triarylborane chromophore showed strong binding to ds‐DNA, ds‐RNA, ss‐RNA, as well as to the naturally most abundant protein, BSA. The novel dye can distinguish between DNA/RNA and BSA by fluorescence emission separated by Δv =3600 cm\(^{-1}\), allowing for the simultaneous quantification of DNA/RNA and protein (BSA) in a mixture. The applicability of such fluorimetric differentiation in vitro was demonstrated, strongly supporting a protein‐like target as a dominant binding site of 1 in cells. Moreover, our dye also bound strongly to ss‐RNA, with the unusual rod‐like structure of the dye, decorated by four positive charges at its termini and having a hydrophobic core, acting as a spindle for wrapping A, C and U ss‐RNAs, but not poly G, the latter preserving its secondary structure. To the best of our knowledge, such unmatched, multifaceted binding activity of a small molecule toward DNA, RNA, and proteins and the selectivity of its fluorimetric and chirooptic response makes the quadrupolar bis‐triarylborane a novel chromophore/fluorophore moiety for biochemical applications.

T1 - Insights into the optical properties of triarylboranes with strongly electron-accepting bis(fluoromesityl)boryl groups: when theory meets experiment
JF - ChemPhotoChem
N2 - The photophysical properties (absorption, fluorescence and phosphorescence) of a series of triarylboranes of the form 4-D-C\(_6\)H\(_4\)-B(Ar)\(_2\) (D=\(^t\)Bu or NPh\(_2\); Ar=mesityl (Mes) or 2,4,6-tris(trifluoromethylphenyl (Fmes)) were analyzed theoretically using state-of-the-art DFT and TD-DFT methods. Simulated emission spectra and computed decay rate constants are in very good agreement with the experimental data. Unrestricted electronic computations including vibronic contributions explain the unusual optical behavior of 4-\(^t\)Bu-C\(_6\)H\(_4\)-B(Fmes)\(_2\) 2, which shows both fluorescence and phosphorescence at nearly identical energies (at 77 K in a frozen glass). Analysis of the main normal modes responsible for the phosphorescence vibrational fine structure indicates that the bulky tert-butyl group tethered to the phenyl ring is strongly involved. Interestingly, in THF solvent, the computed energies of the singlet and triplet excited states are very similar for compound 2 only, which may explain why 2 shows phosphorescence in contrast to the other members of the series.

T1 - Copper-Catalyzed Triboration of Terminal Alkynes Using B\(_2\)pin\(_2\): Efficient Synthesis of 1,1,2-Triborylalkenes
JF - Angewandte Chemie International Edition
N2 - We report herein the catalytic triboration of terminal alkynes with B\(_2\)pin\(_2\) (bis(pinacolato)diboron) using readily available Cu(OAc)\(_2\) and P\(^n\)Bu\(_3\). Various 1,1,2‐triborylalkenes, a class of compounds that have been demonstrated to be potential matrix metalloproteinase (MMP‐2) inhibitors, were obtained directly in moderate to good yields. The process features mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, and good functional group tolerance. This copper‐catalyzed reaction can be conducted on a gram scale to produce the corresponding 1,1,2‐triborylalkenes in modest yields. The utility of these products was demonstrated by further transformations of the C−B bonds to prepare gem ‐dihaloborylalkenes (F, Cl, Br), monohaloborylalkenes (Cl, Br), and trans ‐diaryldiborylalkenes, which serve as important synthons and have previously been challenging to prepare.

T1 - Large vs. Small NHC Ligands in Nickel(0) Complexes: The Coordination of Olefins, Ketones and Aldehydes at [Ni(NHC)\(_{2}\)]
JF - European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry
N2 - Investigations concerning the reactivity of Ni(0) complexes [Ni(NHC)\(_{2}\)] of NHCs (N‐heterocyclic carbene) of different steric demand, Mes\(_{2}\)Im (= 1,3‐dimesitylimidazoline‐2‐ylidene) and iPr\(_{2}\)Im (= 1,3‐diisopropyl‐imidazoline‐2‐ylidene), with olefins, ketones and aldehydes are reported. The reaction of [Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)] 1 with ethylene or methyl acrylate afforded the complexes [Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐C\(_{2}\)H\(_{4}\))] 3 and [Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐(C,C)‐H\(_{2}\)C=CHCOOMe)] 4, as it was previously reported for [Ni\(_{2}\)(iPr\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{4}\)(µ‐(η\(^{2}\):η\(^{2}\))‐COD)] 2 as a source for [Ni(iPr\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)]. In contrast to 2, complex 1 does not react with sterically more demanding olefins such as tetramethylethylene, 1,1‐diphenylethylene and cyclohexene. The reaction of [Ni(NHC)\(_{2}\)] with more π‐acidic ketones or aldehydes led to formation of complexes with side‐on η\(^{2}\)‐(C,O)‐coordinating ligands: [Ni(iPr\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=CH\(^{t}\)Bu)] 5, [Ni(iPr\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=CHPh)] 6, [Ni(iPr\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=CMePh)] 7, [Ni(iPr\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=CPh\(_{2}\))] 8, [Ni(iPr\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=C(4‐F‐C\(_{6}\)H\(_{4}\))\(_{2}\))] 9, [Ni(iPr\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=C(OMe)(CF\(_{3}\)))] 10 and [Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=CHPh)] 11, [Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=CH(CH(CH\(_{3}\))\(_{2}\)))] 12, [Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=CH(4‐NMe\(_{2}\)‐C\(_{6}\)H\(_{4}\)))] 13, [Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=CH(4‐OMe‐C\(_{6}\)H\(_{4}\)))] 14, [Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=CPh\(_{2}\))] 15 and [Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(η\(^{2}\)‐O=C(4‐F‐C\(_{6}\)H\(_{4}\))\(_{2}\))] 16. The reaction of 1 and 2 with these simple aldehydes and ketones does not lead to a significantly different outcome, but NHC ligand rotation is hindered for the Mes\(_{2}\)Im complexes 3, 4 and 11–16 according to NMR spectroscopy. The solid‐state structures of 3, 4, 11 and 12 reveal significantly larger C\(_{NHC}\)‐Ni‐C\(_{NHC}\) angles in the Mes\(_{2}\)Im complexes compared to the iPr\(_{2}\)Im complexes. As electron transfer in d\(^{8}\)‐ (or d\(^{10}\)‐) ML\(_{2}\) complexes to π‐acidic ligands depends on the L–M–L bite angle, the different NHCs lead thus to a different degree of electron transfer and activation of the olefin, aldehyde or ketone ligand, i.e., [Ni(iPr\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)] is the better donor to these π‐acidic ligands. Furthermore, we identified two different side products from the reaction of 1 with benzaldehyde, trans‐[Ni(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)H(OOCPh)] 17 and [Ni\(_{2}\)(Mes\(_{2}\)Im)\(_{2}\)(µ\(_{2}\)‐CO)(µ\(_{2}\)‐η\(^{2}\)‐C,O‐PhCOCOPh)] 18, which indicate that radical intermediates and electron transfer processes might be of importance in the reaction of 1 with aldehydes and ketones.

The NHSi adducts Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi⋅AlI\(_{3}\) (2), Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi⋅Al(C\(_{6}\)F\(_{5}\))\(_{3}\) (3), and Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi⋅B(C\(_{6}\)F\(_{5}\))\(_{3}\) (4) were formed by the reaction of Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi with the corresponding Lewis acids AlI\(_{3}\), Al(C\(_{6}\)F\(_{6}\))\(_{3}\) and B(C\(_{6}\)F\(_{5}\))\(_{3}\). Adducts 3 and 4 were tested with respect to their ability to activate small organic molecules, but no frustrated Lewis pair reactivity was observed. Reactions of Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi with Br\(_{2}\), I\(_{2}\), Ph\(_{2}\)SnCl\(_{2}\) and Me\(_{3}\)SnCl led to formation of Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSiBr\(_{2}\) (5), Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSiI\(_{2}\) (6), Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSiCl\(_{2}\) (7) and {(Me\(_{3}\)Sn)N(Dipp)CH}\(_{2}\) (8), respectively. The reaction with the halocarbons methyl iodide, benzyl chloride, and benzyl bromide afforded the insertion products Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi(I)(CH\(_{3}\)) (9), Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi(Cl)(CH\(_{2}\)Ph) (10) and Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi(Br)(CH\(_{2}\)Ph) (11). Reaction of Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi with the organoazides Ad‐N\(_{3}\) (Ad=adamantyl) and TMS‐N\(_{3}\) (TMS=trimethylsilyl) led to the formation of 1‐Dipp\(_{2}\)NHSi‐2,5‐bis(adamantyl)‐tetrazoline (12) and bis(trimethylsilyl)amido azido silane (13), respectively.

The reaction of one equivalent of the group 13 NHC complexes with an additional equivalent of the corresponding NHC afforded cationic aluminium and gallium hydrides [(NHC)\(_{2}\)·AlH\(_{2}\)]\(^{+}\)I− (NHC = Me\(_{2}\)Im\(^{Me}\) 13, iPr\(_{2}\)Im 14, iPr\(_{2}\)Im\(^{Me}\) 15) and [(NHC)\(_{2}\)·GaH\(_{2}\)]\(^{+}\)I− (NHC = Me\(_{2}\)Im\(^{Me}\) 16, iPr\(_{2}\)Im\(^{Me}\) 17) and the normal and abnormal NHC coordinated compound [(Dipp\(_{2}\)Im)·GaH\(_{2}\)(aDipp\(_{2}\)Im)]+I− 18.

T1 - Wavelength‐dependent control of the CO release kinetics of manganese(I) tricarbonyl PhotoCORMs with benzimidazole coligands
JF - European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry
N2 - A series of photoactivatable CO‐releasing molecules (PhotoCORMs) was prepared from manganese pentacarbonyl bromide and 1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐ylmethyl‐(N‐phenyl)amine ligands (L) bearing different electron‐donating and electron‐withdrawing groups R = H, 4‐CH\(_3\), 4‐OCH\(_3\), 4‐Cl, 4‐NO\(_2\), 2‐, 3‐, and 4‐COOCH\(_3\) on the phenyl substituent to give octahedral manganese(I) complexes of the general formula [MnBr(CO)\(_3\)(L)]. Aerated DMSO solutions of the compounds are stable in the dark for 16 h with no CO release. However, the compounds rapidly release CO upon illumination at 412–525 nm, depending on the substitution pattern. Its influence on the photophysical and photochemical properties was systematically explored using UV/Vis spectroscopy and CO release measurements with a commercial gas sensor system. In the nitro‐substituted compound, the electronically excited state switched from benzimidazole‐ to phenyl‐centered, leading to a markedly different photochemical behavior of this visible‐light activated PhotoCORM.

Verschiedene 1,1,2‐Triborylalkene, eine Verbindungsklasse mit potentieller Funktion als Matrix‐Metallo‐Proteinase(MMP‐2)‐Inhibitor, werden direkt in mäßigen bis guten Ausbeuten erhalten. Das Verfahren zeichnet sich durch milde Reaktionsbedingungen, ein breites Substratspektrum und eine gute Verträglichkeit gegenüber funktionellen Gruppen aus. Diese Cu‐katalysierte Reaktion kann im Gramm‐Maßstab durchgeführt werden und liefert die entsprechenden 1,1,2‐Triborylalkene in mäßigen Ausbeuten. Die Verwendung solcher Verbindungen wird anhand weiterer Transformationen der C−B‐Bindungen zur Darstellung eines geminalen Dihalogenborylalkens (F, Cl, Br), eines Monohalogendiborylalkens (Cl, Br) und eines trans‐Diaryldiborylalkens demonstriert, welche bedeutende Synthesebausteine darstellen und bisher nur schwer zugänglich waren.

N2 - The steric and electronic properties of aryl substituents in monoaryl borohydrides (Li[ArBH\(_3\)]) and dihydroboranes were systematically varied and their reactions with [Ru(PCy\(_3\))\(_2\)HCl(H\(_2\))] (Cy: cyclohexyl) were studied, resulting in bis(σ)‐borane or terminal borylene complexes of ruthenium. These variations allowed for the investigation of the factors involved in the activation of dihydroboranes in the synthesis of terminal borylene complexes. The complexes were studied by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, X‐ray diffraction analysis, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The experimental and computational results suggest that the ortho‐substitution of the aryl groups is necessary for the formation of terminal borylene complexes.

JF - Angewandte Chemie International Edition
N2 - The electron‐precise binary boron subhalide species [B\(_2\)X\(_6\)]\(^{2−}\) X=F, Br, I) were synthesized and their structures confirmed by X‐ray crystallography. The existence of the previously claimed [B\(_2\)Cl\(_6\)]\(^{2−}\), which had been questioned, was also confirmed by X‐ray crystallography. The dianions are isoelectronic to hexahaloethanes, are subhalide analogues of the well‐known tetrahaloborate anions (BX\(_4\)\(^−\)), and are rare examples of molecular electron‐precise binary boron species beyond B\(_2\)X\(_4\), BX\(_3\), and [BX\(_4\)]\(^−\).

N2 - The reaction of aryl‐ and amino(dihydro)boranes with dibora[2]ferrocenophane 1 leads to the formation 1,3‐trans ‐dihydrotriboranes by formal hydrogenation and insertion of a borylene unit into the B=B bond. The aryltriborane derivatives undergo reversible photoisomerization to the cis ‐1,2‐μ‐H‐3‐hydrotriboranes, while hydride abstraction affords cationic triboranes, which represent the first doubly base‐stabilized B3H4\(^+\) analogues.

T1 - Bismuth Amides Mediate Facile and Highly Selective Pn–Pn Radical‐Coupling Reactions (Pn=N, P, As)
JF - Angewandte Chemie, International Edition
N2 - The controlled release of well‐defined radical species under mild conditions for subsequent use in selective reactions is an important and challenging task in synthetic chemistry. We show here that simple bismuth amide species [Bi(NAr\(_2\))\(_3\)] readily release aminyl radicals [NAr\(_2\)]. at ambient temperature in solution. These reactions yield the corresponding hydrazines, Ar\(_2\)N−NAr\(_2\), as a result of highly selective N−N coupling. The exploitation of facile homolytic Bi−Pn bond cleavage for Pn−Pn bond formation was extended to higher homologues of the pnictogens (Pn=N–As): homoleptic bismuth amides mediate the highly selective dehydrocoupling of HPnR\(_2\) to give R\(_2\)Pn−PnR\(_2\). Analyses by NMR and EPR spectroscopy, single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, and DFT calculations reveal low Bi−N homolytic bond‐dissociation energies, suggest radical coupling in the coordination sphere of bismuth, and reveal electronic and steric parameters as effective tools to control these reactions.

JF - Angewandte Chemie, International Edition
N2 - The reductive coupling of an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) stabilized (dibromo)vinylborane yields a 1,2-divinyl- diborene, which, although isoelectronic to a 1,3,5-triene, displays no extended p conjugation because of twisting of the C\(_2\)B\(_2\)C\(_2\) chain. While this divinyldiborene coordinates to copper(I) and platinum(0) in an η\(^2\)-B\(_2\) and η\(^4\)-C\(_2\)B\(_2\) fashion, respectively, it undergoes a complex rearrangement to an η\(^4\)-1,3-diborete upon complexation with nickel(0).

BT - Dedicated to Professor Wolfgang Kaim on the occasion of his 70th birthday
JF - Angewandte Chemie, International Edition
N2 - An N-heterocyclic-carbene-stabilized diboryne undergoes rapid, high-yielding and catalyst-free hydroamina- tion reactions with primary amines, yielding 1-amino-2-hydro- diborenes, which can be considered boron analogues of enamines. The electronics of the organic substituent at nitrogen influence the structure and further reactivity of the diborene product. With electron-rich anilines, a second hydroamination can occur at the diborene to generate 1,1-diamino-2,2-dihy- drodiboranes. With isopropylamine, the electronic influence of the alkyl substituent upon the diborene leads to an unprece- dented boron-mediated intramolecular N-dearylation reaction of an N-heterocyclic carbene unit.

T1 - Experiments to Introduce Students into the Temperature Dependence of the Reaction Rate
JF - World Journal of Chemical Education
N2 - It is a challenge in chemical education to understand basic principles of chemical reaction kinetics on an experimental basis because of the relatively extensive experimental setup and the often time-consuming measurement series. This contribution offers an introduction into the field of the temperature dependence of reaction rate with easy-to-use experiments. Data logging systems have been used to get sufficient data-sets to evaluate different measurements in reaction kinetics. Several experiments were designed for practical courses in chemistry, which allow students to derive the simple van‘t Hoff rule on the one hand. On the other hand, the Arrhenius equation can only be derived on the basis of experimental data with the help of information from collision theory and Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution.

T1 - Synthesis of Highly Functionalizable Symmetrically and Unsymmetrically Substituted Triarylboranes from Bench-Stable Boron Precursors
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - A novel and convenient methodology for the one-pot synthesis of sterically congested triarylboranes by using bench-stable aryltrifluoroborates as the boron source is reported. This procedure gives systematic access to symmetrically and unsymmetrically substituted triarylboranes of the types BAr\(_{2}\)Ar’ and BArAr'Ar’’, respectively. Three unsymmetrically substituted triarylboranes as well as their iridium-catalyzed C−H borylation products are reported. These borylated triarylboranes contain one to three positions that can subsequently be orthogonally functionalized in follow-up reactions, such as Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings or Sonogashira couplings.

JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - A number of novel alkynyl-functionalized diarylbis(dimethylamino)diboranes(4) are prepared by salt metathesis, and the appended alkynyl groups are subjected to hydroboration. Their reactions with monohydroboranes lead to discrete boryl-appended diborane(4) species, while dihydroboranes induce their catenation to oligomeric species, the first known examples of well-characterized macromolecular species with B−B bonds. The oligomeric species were found to comprise up to ten repeat units and are soluble in common organic solvents. Some of the oligomeric species have good air stability and all were characterized by NMR and vibrational spectroscopy and size-exclusion chromatography techniques.

T1 - Bithiophene-Cored, mono-, bis-, and tris-(Trimethylammonium)-Substituted, bis-Triarylborane Chromophores: Effect of the Number and Position of Charges on Cell Imaging and DNA/RNA Sensing
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - The synthesis, photophysical, and electrochemical properties of selectively mono-, bis- and tris-dimethylamino- and trimethylammonium-substituted bis-triarylborane bithiophene chromophores are presented along with the water solubility and singlet oxygen sensitizing efficiency of the cationic compounds Cat\(^{1+}\), Cat\(^{2+}\), Cat(i)\(^{2+}\), and Cat\(^{3+}\). Comparison with the mono-triarylboranes reveals the large influence of the bridging unit on the properties of the bis-triarylboranes, especially those of the cationic compounds. Based on these preliminary investigations, the interactions of Cat\(^{1+}\), Cat\(^{2+}\), Cat(i)\(^{2+}\), and Cat\(^{3+}\) with DNA, RNA, and DNApore were investigated in buffered solutions. The same compounds were investigated for their ability to enter and localize within organelles of human lung carcinoma (A549) and normal lung (WI38) cells showing that not only the number of charges but also their distribution over the chromophore influences interactions and staining properties.

T1 - Aminotroponiminates: Impact of the NO\(_{2}\) Functional Group on Coordination, Isomerisation, and Backbone Substitution
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - Aminotroponiminate (ATI) ligands are a versatile class of redox-active and potentially cooperative ligands with a rich coordination chemistry that have consequently found a wide range of applications in synthesis and catalysis. While backbone substitution of these ligands has been investigated in some detail, the impact of electron-withdrawing groups on the coordination chemistry and reactivity of ATIs has been little investigated. We report here Li, Na, and K salts of an ATI ligand with a nitro-substituent in the backbone. It is demonstrated that the NO2 group actively contributes to the coordination chemistry of these complexes, effectively competing with the N,N-binding pocket as a coordination site. This results in an unprecedented E/Z isomerisation of an ATI imino group and culminates in the isolation of the first “naked” (i. e., without directional bonding to a metal atom) ATI anion. Reactions of sodium ATIs with silver(I) and tritylium salts gave the first N,N-coordinated silver ATI complexes and unprecedented backbone substitution reactions. Analytical techniques applied in this work include multinuclear (VT-)NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, and DFT calculations.

T1 - Base-Mediated Radical Borylation of Alkyl Sulfones
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - A practical and direct method was developed for the production of versatile alkyl boronate esters via transition metal-free borylation of primary and secondary alkyl sulfones. The key to the success of the strategy is the use of bis(neopentyl glycolato) diboron (B\(_{2}\)neop\(_{2}\)), with a stoichiometric amount of base as a promoter. The practicality and industrial potential of this protocol are highlighted by its wide functional group tolerance, the late-stage modification of complex compounds, no need for further transesterification, and operational simplicity. Radical clock, radical trap experiments, and EPR studies were conducted which show that the borylation process involves radical intermediates.

In this work, iodinated aryl derivatives were reacted with the copper organyl CuC2F5. Symmetrically and asymmetrically pentafluoroethylated aniline and phenol derivatives were prepared via this method. The aniline derivatives were reacted to give the corresponding diazonium salts, which were first fully characterized and then their further reactivities were investigated.
The second chapter deals with the preparation of bis(trifluoromethyl)sulfone by electrochemical fluorination using the Simons process. Here, the conversion of the reaction was optimized by using the partially fluorinated compound (trifluoromethyl)methyl sulfone as starting material.

T1 - Novel Borane- and Phosphorane- Functionalized Anionic Carbene Ligands
T1 - Neuartige Boran- und Phosphoran-funktionalisierte anionische Carbenliganden
N2 - N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) are utilized for the stabilization of reactive compounds, for the activation of strong bonds, and as ligands in transition metal chemistry. In contrast to neutral NHCs, few examples of anionic or even dianionic NHCs are known. One approach for the synthesis of anionic carbenes is the deprotonation of neutral or anionic precursors, bearing Lewis acids instead of alkyl or aryl substituents. Following this strategy, novel anionic and dianionic NHCs, featuring weakly coordinating fluorinated borane and phosphorane substituents or coordinating tricyanoborane substituents were synthesized within the scope of this thesis. These carbenes possess unprecedented stabilities compared to related species. Furthermore, their electronic and steric properties can be directly adjusted by the type of Lewis acid attached. Their potential as ligands with highly shielding weakly coordinating substituents next to the carbene coordination center was demonstrated by the syntheses of the respective NHC selenium adducts and NHC gold(I) complexes. In contrast anionic NHCs with coordinating tricyanoborane moieties have an outstanding potential as ditopic ligands with coordination being possible at the carbene center and via the cyano groups. Their beneficial ligand properties were demonstrated by the syntheses of the respective NHC selenium adducts and NHC nickeltricarbonyl complexes. The combination of electronic properties, the large buried volume, the negative charge, the possibility to act as ditopic or ligands with weakly coordinating groups, and the ease of accessibility render borane- and phosphorane functionalized NHCs unique novel ligands. A further project of this PhD thesis deals with the steric properties of Lewis acids. Therefore, an easy-to-apply model was designed to quantify the steric demand of Lewis acids. Using the results of this evaluation, a second model was developed which judges the steric repulsion in Lewis acid/base adduct formation for arbitrary sets of acids and bases.
N2 - N-heterozyklische Carbene (NHC) werden für die Stabilisierung reaktiver Verbindungen, für die Aktivierung starker Bindungen sowie als Liganden in der Übergangsmetallchemie eingesetzt. Im Gegensatz zu neutralen NHCs sind nur sehr wenige Vertreter anionischer oder gar dianionischer NHCs bekannt. Eine gute Strategie für deren Synthese stellt die Deprotonierung neutraler oder anionischer Vorstufen dar, welche Lewis-Säuren an Stelle von Alkyl- oder Arylsubstituenten tragen. Dieser Route folgend, wurden im Rahmen dieser Arbeit neue anionische und dianionische NHCs dargestellt, welche mit schwach koordinierenden, fluorierten Boran- und Phosphoransubstituenten oder mit koordinierenden Tricyanoboraneinheiten funktionalisiert sind. Diese Carbene besitzen beispiellose Stabilitäten, verglichen mit verwandten Verbindungen. Darüber hinaus können deren elektronischen und sterischen Eigenschaften direkt über die Wahl der Lewis-Säure gesteuert werden. Das Potential der Liganden mit stark abschirmenden schwach koordinierenden Substituenten in Nachbarschaft zum Carbenzentrum wurde durch die Synthese von NHC-Selen-Verbindungen sowie NHC-Gold(I)komplexen gezeigt. Im Gegensatz hierzu besitzen anionische NHCs mit koordinierenden Tricyanoboraneinheiten ein herausragendes Potential als ditope Liganden, da eine Koordination sowohl über das Carbenzentrum als auch über die Cyanogruppen möglich ist. Diese Vorteilhaften Ligandeneigenschaften wurden durch die Synthese entsprechender NHC-Selen-Addukte und NHC-Nickeltricarbonylkomplexe gezeigt. Somit macht die Kombination der elektronischen Eigenschaften, des großen verdeckten Volumens, der negativen Ladung, der Möglichkeit als ditoper Ligand oder als Ligand mit schwach koordinierenden Gruppen zu fungieren sowie die einfache Zugänglichkeit Boran- und Phosphoran-funktionalisierte NHCs zu einzigartigen neuartigen Liganden. Ein weiterer Teil dieser Arbeit setzt sich mit dem sterischen Anspruch von Lewis-Säuren auseinander. Hierfür wurde ein einfach anwendbares Modell entworfen, welches diesen quantifiziert. Ausgehend von diesen Ergebnissen wurde ein zweites Modell entwickelt, welches die sterische Abstoßung zwischen Lewis-Säure/Base-Addukten für beliebige Säure/Base-Kombinationen beurteilt.

The reaction of two equivalents of the NHCs Me\(_2\)Im (1,3-dimethylimidazolin-2-ylidene), Me\(_4\)Im (1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazolin-2-ylidene), iPr\(_2\)Im (1,3-di-iso-propylimidazolin-2-ylidene) and Mes\(_2\)Im (2,4,6-trimethylphenylimidazolin-2-ylidene) with PhPH\(_2\) and MesPH\(_2\) led to the NHC stabilized phosphinidenes (NHC)PAr: (iPr\(_2\)Im)PPh (1), (Mes\(_2\)Im)PPh (2), (Me\(_4\)Im)PPh (3), (Mes\(_2\)Im)PMes (4), (Me\(_2\)Im)PMes (5), (Me\(_4\)Im)PMes (6) and (iPr\(_2\)Im)PMes (7). The reaction of tBuPH\(_2\) with two equivalents of the NHCs afforded the corresponding NHC stabilized parent phosphinidenes (NHC)PH: (iPr\(_2\)Im)PH (8), (Mes\(_2\)Im)PH (9) and (Me\(_4\)Im)PH (10). Reaction of 1 with oxygen and sulfur led to isolation of iPr\(_2\)Im-P(O)\(_2\)Ph (11) and iPr\(_2\)Im-P(S)\(_2\)Ph (12), whereas the reaction with elemental selenium and tellurium gave (NHC)PPh cleavage with formation of (iPr\(_2\)Im)Se (13), iPr\(_2\)ImTe (14) and different cyclo-oligophosphines. Furthermore, the complexes [{(iPr\(_2\)Im)PPh}W(CO)\(_5\)] (15), [Co(CO)\(_2\)(NO){(iPr\(_2\)Im)PPh}] (16) and [(η\(^5\)-C\(_5\)Me\(_2\))Co(η\(^2\)-C\(_2\)H\(_4\)){(iPr\(_2\)Im)PPh}] (17) have been prepared starting from 1 and a suitable transition metal complex precursor. The complexes 16 and 17 decompose in solution upon heating to ca. 80 °C to yield the NHC complexes [Co(iPr\(_2\)Im)(CO)\(_2\)(NO)] and [(η\(^5\)-C\(_5\)Me\(_5\))Co(iPr\(_2\)Im)(η\(^2\)-C\(_2\)H\(_4\))] with formation of cyclo-oligophosphines. The reaction of 1 with [Ni(COD)\(_2\)] afforded the diphosphene complex [Ni(iPr\(_2\)Im)\(_2\)(trans-PhP=PPh)] 18.

T1 - Rethinking Borole Cycloaddition Reactivity
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - Boroles are attracting broad interest for their myriad and diverse applications, including in synthesis, small molecule activation and functional materials. Their properties and reactivity are closely linked to the cyclic conjugated diene system, which has been shown to participate in cycloaddition reactions, such as the Diels-Alder reaction with alkynes. The reaction steps leading to boranorbornadienes, borepins and tricyclic boracyclohexenes from the thermal reaction of boroles with alkynes are seemingly well understood as judged from the literature. Herein, we question the long-established mechanistic picture of pericyclic rearrangements by demonstrating that seven-membered borepins (i. e., heptaphenylborepin and two derivatives substituted with a thienyl and chloride substituent on boron) exist in a dynamic equilibrium with the corresponding bicyclic boranorbornadienes, the direct Diels-Alder products, but are not isolable products from the reactions. Heating gradually converts the isomeric mixtures into fluorescent tricyclic boracyclohexenes, the most stable isomers in the series. Results from mechanistic DFT calculations reveal that the tricyclic compounds derive from the boranorbornadienes and not the borepins, which were previously believed to be intermediates in purely pericyclic processes.

T1 - Rhodium-Mediated Stoichiometric Synthesis of Mono-, Bi-, and Bis-1,2-Azaborinines: 1-Rhoda-3,2-azaboroles as Reactive Precursors
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - A series of highly substituted 1,2-azaborinines, including a phenylene-bridged bis-1,2-azaborinine, was synthesized from the reaction of 1,2-azaborete rhodium complexes with variously substituted alkynes. 1-Rhoda-3,2-azaborole complexes, which are accessible by phosphine addition to the corresponding 1,2-azaborete complexes, were also found to be suitable precursors for the synthesis of 1,2-azaborinines and readily reacted with alkynyl-substituted 1,2-azaborinines to generate new regioisomers of bi-1,2-azaborinines, which feature directly connected aromatic rings. Their molecular structures, which can be viewed as boron-nitrogen isosteres of biphenyls, show nearly perpendicular 1,2-azaborinine rings. The new method using rhodacycles instead of 1,2-azaborete complexes as precursors is shown to be more effective, allowing the synthesis of a wider range of 1,2-azaborinines.

T1 - Boron- versus Nitrogen-Centered Nucleophilic Reactivity of (Cyano)hydroboryl Anions: Synthesis of Cyano(hydro)organoboranes and 2-Aza-1,4-diborabutatrienes
JF - Chemistry—A European Journal
N2 - Cyclic alkyl(amino)carbene-stabilized (cyano)hydroboryl anions were synthesized by deprotonation of (cyano)dihydroborane precursors. While they display boron-centered nucleophilic reactivity towards organohalides, generating fully unsymmetrically substituted cyano(hydro)organoboranes, they show cyano-nitrogen-centered nucleophilic reactivity towards haloboranes, resulting in the formation of hitherto unknown linear 2-aza-1,4-diborabutatrienes.
