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.
B≡N and B≡B triple bonds induce C-H activation of acetone to yield a (2-propenyloxy)aminoborane and an unsymmetrical 1-(2- propenyloxy)-2-hydrodiborene, respectively. DFT calculations showed that, despite their stark electronic differences, both the B≡N and B≡B triple bonds activate acetone via a similar coordination-deprotonation mechansim. In contrast, the reaction of acetone with a cAAC-supported diboracumulene yielded a unique 1,2,3-oxadiborole, which according to DFT calculations also proceeds via an unsymmetrical diborene, followed by intramolecular hydride migration and a second C-H activation of the enolate ligand.
A set of diboryldiborenes are prepared by the mild, catalyst-free, room-temperature diboration of the B–B triple bonds of doubly base-stabilized diborynes. Two of the product diboryldiborenes are found to be air- and water-stable in the solid state, an effect that is attributed to their high crystallinity and extreme insolubility in a wide range of solvents.
Lewisbasenstabilisierte Bor-Bor-Mehrfachbindungssysteme - Darstellung und Reaktivitätsstudien
(2021)
Diese Dissertation befasst sich mit der Darstellung und Reaktivität von Lewisbasenstabilisierten Bor-Bor-Mehrfachbindungssystemen.
Besonderes Augenmerk lag hierbei auf der Aktivierung von Element-Wasserstoff-Bindungen von Boranen, Aminen, Silanen und Phosphanen durch NHC-stabilisierte Diborine. Des Weiteren wurde die Aktivierung von Bor-Bor-, sowie Phosphor-Phosphor-Einfachbindungen untersucht. Zusätzlich wurde die Reaktivität gegenüber Carbenen und aromatischen Stickstoffbasen näher beleuchtet.
Five compounds containing boron–boron multiple bonds are shown to undergo hydrophosphination reactions with diphenylphosphine in the absence of a catalyst. With diborenes, the products obtained are highly dependent on the substitution pattern at the boron atoms, with both 1,1- and 1,2- hydrophosphinations observed. With a symmetrical diboryne, 1,2-hydrophosphination yields a hydro(phosphino)diborene. The different mechanistic pathways for the hydrophosphination of diborenes are rationalised with the aid of density functional theory calculations.
The two-fold reduction of (cAAC)BHX\(_2\) (cAAC = 1-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-3,3,5,5-tetramethylpyrrolidin-2-ylidene; X = Cl, Br) provides a facile, high-yielding route to the dihydrodiborene (cAAC)\(_2\)B\(_2\)H\(_2\). The (chloro)hydroboryl anion reduction intermediate was successfully isolated using a crown ether. Overreduction of the diborene to its dianion [(cAAC)\(_2\)B\(_2\)H\(_2\)]\(^{2−}\) causes a decrease in the B–B bond order whereas the B–C bond orders increase.
CO\(_2\) is found to undergo room-temperature, ambient- pressure reactions with two species containing boron-boron multiple bonds, leading to incorporation of either one or two CO\(_2\) molecules. In one case, a thermally-unstable intermediate was structurally characterized, indicating the operation of an initial 2+2 cycloaddition mechanism in the reaction.
