This thesis describes the synthesis and reactivity of bis-NHC ligated nickel(0)-complexes and their application in catalytic cyclization and borylation reactions of alkynes. The focus of the presented work lies on the investigation of the electronic and steric impact of different NHC ligands on the reactivity and catalytic activity of [Ni(NHC)2] complexes. Since d10 ML2 complexes play a decisive role for numerous catalytic reactions, such as the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling, the first chapter provides an overview about the general properties of NHCs and the chemistry of NHC-ligated nickel complexes, their synthesis, characterization, reactivity, and application in catalysis.
Carbene‐stabilized diborynes of the form LBBL (L=N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) or cyclic alkyl(amino)carbene (CAAC)) induce rapid, high yielding, intermolecular ortho‐C−H borylation at N‐heterocycles at room temperature. A simple pyridyldiborene is formed when an NHC‐stabilized diboryne is combined with pyridine, while a CAAC‐stabilized diboryne leads to activation of two pyridine molecules to give a tricyclic alkylideneborane, which can be forced to undergo a further H‐shift resulting in a zwitterionic, doubly benzo‐fused 1,3,2,5‐diazadiborinine by heating. Use of the extended N‐heteroaromatic quinoline leads to a borylmethyleneborane under mild conditions via an unprecedented boron‐carbon exchange process.
