Dioxygen reactivity with a ferrocene-Lewis acid pairing: reduction to a boron peroxide in the presence of tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ferrocenes, which are typically air-stable outer-sphere single-electron transfer reagents, were found to react with dioxygen in the presence of B(C6 F5 )3 , a Lewis acid unreactive to O2 , to generate bis(borane) peroxide. Although several Group 13 peroxides have been reported, boron-supported peroxides are rare, with no structurally characterized examples of the BO2 B moiety. The synthesis of a bis(borane)-supported peroxide anion and its structural and electrochemical characterization are described.

Enantioselective Diels–Alder Reaction Induced by Chiral Supramolecular Lewis Acid Catalysts Based on CN···B and PO···B Coordination Bonds
Chiral supramolecular boron Lewis acid catalysts were developed with the use of chiral 3-phosphoryl-BINOLs, 2-cyanophenylboronic acids, and tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane based on CN···B and PO···B coordination bonds. In particular, coordinated tris(pentafluorophenyl)boranes can increase the Lewis acidity of the active center based on the Lewis acidassisted Lewis acid catalyst system. A possible...

We report a kinetic and mechanistic study into the one-electron reduction of the archetypal Lewis acid tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, B(C(6)F(5))(3), in dichloromethane and 1,2-difluorobenzene. Electrochemical experiments, combined with digital simulations, DFT computational studies and multinuclear NMR analysis allow us to obtain thermodynamic, kinetic and mechanistic information relating to t...
متن کاملBoron Lewis Acid-Catalyzed Hydroboration of Alkenes with Pinacolborane: BArF3 Does What B(C6 F5 )3 Cannot Do!
The transition-metal-free hydroboration of various alkenes with pinacolborane (HBpin) initiated by tris[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borane (BArF3 ) is reported. The choice of the boron Lewis acid is crucial as the more prominent boron Lewis acid tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane (B(C6 F5 )3 ) is reluctant to react. Unlike B(C6 F5 )3 , BArF3 is found to engage in substituent redistribution with H...
متن کاملBorane-functionalized silica supports In situ activated heterogeneous zirconocene catalysts for MAO-free ethylene polymerization
We treated silica with tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, B(C6F5)3, to create borane-functionalized support, SiO2–B(C6F5)3 which was then used as a support and co-catalyst for the in situ activated dichloro-zirconocene (Cp2ZrCl2/TIBA) and dimethyl-zirconocene catalyst systems (Cp2Zr(CH3)2) for ethylene polymerization. The surface modifications of SiO2– B(C6F5)3 was investigated by SEM–EDX, FTIR and...
