Frustrated Lewis Pair Mediated 1,2‐Hydrocarbation of Alkynes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) chemistry enables a rare example of alkyne 1,2-hydrocarbation with N-methylacridinium salts as the carbon Lewis acid. This 1,2-hydrocarbation process does not proceed through a concerted mechanism as in alkyne syn-hydroboration, or through an intramolecular 1,3-hydride migration as operates in the only other reported alkyne 1,2-hydrocarbation reaction. Instead, in this study, alkyne 1,2-hydrocarbation proceeds by a novel mechanism involving alkyne dehydrocarbation with a carbon Lewis acid based FLP to form the new C-C bond. Subsequently, intermolecular hydride transfer occurs, with the Lewis acid component of the FLP acting as a hydride shuttle that enables alkyne 1,2-hydrocarbation.

Ethene/alkyne exchange reaction at an intramolecular frustrated Lewis pair.
A vicinal ethylene bridged S/B frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) in situ generated by a hydroboration reaction of phenyl vinyl sulfide, reacts with p-tert-butylphenylacetylene by ethene/alkyne exchange and subsequent 1,2-addition of a second alkyne equivalent to give a zwitterionic sulfonium/borate product.

Hydroboration of the electron poor phosphine (1-propenyl)P(C(6)F(5))(2) with Piers' borane [HB(C(6)F(5))(2)] gave the geminal frustrated Lewis pair (C(6)F(5))(2)P-CH(Et)-B(C(6)F(5))(2). It undergoes 1,2-addition reactions to an alkene and an alkyne and to the C=N bond of an isocyanate. With mesityl azide it undergoes a 1,3-addition reaction.

The arylbis(phenylethynyl)phosphanes 1a,b (aryl = mesityl, 2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl) react with the frustrated P/B Lewis pair (P/B FLP) mes2PCH2CH2B(C6F5)2 (4) to give mixtures of three products; the major products, the phosphole systems 2a,b, are formed by a sequence of 1,1-carboboration reactions. One of the minor compounds (6a,b) is formed by 1,1-carboboration followed by internal 1,2-FLP ad...

Identification on catalytic sites of heterogeneous catalysts at atomic level is important to understand catalytic mechanism. Surface engineering on defects of metal oxides can construct new active sites and regulate catalytic activity and selectivity. Here we outline the strategy by controlling surface defects of nanoceria to create the solid frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) metal oxide for efficien...
متن کاملContrasting Frustrated Lewis Pair Reactivity with Selenium‐ and Boron‐Based Lewis Acids
The activation of π-bonds in diynyl esters has been investigated by using soft and hard Lewis acids. In the case of the soft selenium Lewis acid PhSeCl, sequential activation of the alkyne bonds leads initially to an isocoumarin (1 equiv PhSeCl) and then to a tetracyclic conjugated structure with the isocoumarin subunit fused to a benzoselenopyran (3 equiv PhSeCl). Conversely, the reaction with...
