1. Bis(1-(4-tolyl)-carboran-2-yl)-(4-tolyl)-borane, a new bis(o-carboranyl)-(R)-borane 1 was synthesised by lithiation of the o-carboranyl precursor and subsequent salt metathesis reaction with (4-tolyl)BBr2. Cyclic voltammetry experiments on 1 show multiple distinct reduction events with a one-electron first reduction. In a selective reduction experiment the corresponding paramagnetic radical anion 1•− was isolated and characterized. Single-crystal structure analyses allow an in-depth comparison of 1, 1•−, their calculated geometries, and the S1 excited state of 1.
2. The choice of backbone linker for ortho-bis-(9-borafluorene)s has a great influence on the LUMO located at the boron centers and therefore the reactivity of the respective compounds. Herein, we report the room temperature rearrangement of 1,2-bis-(9-borafluorenyl-)-ortho-carborane, C2B10H10-1,2-[B(C12H8)]2 ([2a]) featuring o-carborane as the inorganic three-dimensional backbone and the synthesis of 1,2-bis-(9-borafluorenyl-)benzene, C6H4-1,2-[B(C12H8)]2 (2b) its phenylene analog. DFT calculations on the transition state for the rearrangement support an intramolecular C–H bond activation process via an SEAr-like mechanism in [2a], and predicted that the same rearrangement would take place in 2b, but at elevated temperatures, which indeed proved to be the case.
3. We synthesized 4 a julolidine-like pyrenyl-o-carborane, with pyrene substituted at the 2,7-positions on the HOMO/LUMO nodal plane, continuing our research. Using solid state molecular structures, photophysical data, cyclic voltammetry, DFT and TD-DFT calculations we compare o-carborane and the B(mes)2 (mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2) as acceptor groups and confirm the julolidine-like donor strength.
