Abstract
The syntheses of novel N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) adducts of group 13, 14 and 15 element hydrides are reported. Salt metathesis reactions between NaPH2 and IDipp ⋅ GeH2 BH2 OTf (1) (IDipp=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) led to mixtures of the two isomers IDipp ⋅ GeH2 BH2 PH2 (2 a) and IDipp ⋅ BH2 GeH2 PH2 (2 b); by altering the reaction conditions an almost exclusive formation of 2 b was achieved. Attempts to purify mixtures of 2 a and 2 b by re-crystallization from THF afforded a salt [IDipp ⋅ GeH2 BH2 ⋅ IDipp][PHGeH2 BH2 PH2 BH2 GeH2 ] (4) that contains the novel anionic cyclohexyl-like inorganic heterocycle [PHGeH2 BH2 PH2 BH2 GeH2 ]- . In addition, the borane adducts IDipp ⋅ GeH2 BH2 PH2 BH3 (3 a) and IDipp ⋅ BH2 GeH2 PH2 BH3 (3 b) as even longer chain compounds were obtained from reactions of 2 a/2 b with H3 B ⋅ SMe2 and were studied by NMR spectroscopy. Accompanying DFT computations give insight into the mechanism and energetics associated with 2 a/2 b isomerization as well as their decomposition pathways.

[PMID: 38179531 PMCID: PMC10763563 DOI: 10.1039/d3sc04901a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Iminoboranes have gathered immense attention due to their reactivity and potential applications as isoelectronic and isosteric alkynes. While cyclic alkynes are well investigated and useful reagents, cyclic iminoboranes are underexplored and their existence was inferred only via trapping experiments. We report the first direct spectroscopic evidence of a cyclic seven-membered iminoborane, 1-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-1H-1,3,2-diazaborepine 2, under cryogenic matrix isolation conditions. The amino-iminoborane 2 was photochemically generated in solid argon at 4 K from 2-azido-1-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-1,2-dihydro-1,2-azaborinine (3) and was characterized using FT-IR, UV-vis spectroscopy, and computational chemistry. The characteristic BN stretching vibration (1751 cm-1) is shifted by about 240 cm-1 compared to linear amino-iminoboranes indicating a significant weakening of the bond. The Lewis acidity value determined computationally (LAB = 9.1 ± 2.6) is similar to that of boron trichloride, and twelve orders of magnitude lower than that of 1,2-azaborinine (BN-aryne, LAB = 21.5 ± 2.6), a six-membered cyclic iminoborane. In contrast to the latter, the reduced ring strain of 2 precludes nitrogen fixation, but it unexpectedly allows facile (2 + 2) cycloaddition reaction with C2H4 under matrix isolation conditions at 30 K.

Abstract
While R2 C=N-R double bonds in organic imines are well established, the related iminoboranes R-B=N-R are either prone to oligomerization or can only be stabilized at sufficient steric congestion. In particular, the examples of unsubstituted parent B=N-H entity are rare. We demonstrate that the amino imidazoline-2-imine ligand system (HAmIm) not only gives rise to the isolation of a parent (AmIm)B=N-H iminoborane, but also to species of type (AmIm)B=N-SiMe3 with concomitant stabilization by lithium bromide. The double bond character in these systems is unambiguously corroborated by DFT calculations. The steric accessibility of the (AmIm)B=NH unit allows facile reactivity including metathesis reactions with C=O and C=S bonds, nucleophilic addition toward organic and organometallic carbonyl compounds, but also oxidative N-N coupling within a dimeric unit. Thus, the chemical behavior of the (AmIm)B=N-H and (AmIm)B=N-SiMe3 is distinctly different from that of organic imines.

Abstract
The activation and functionalization of carbon dioxide entails great interest related to its abundance, low toxicity and associated environmental problems. However, the inertness of CO2 has posed a challenge towards its efficient conversion to added-value products. In this review we discuss one of the strategies that have been widely used to capture and activate carbon dioxide, namely the use of donor-acceptor interactions by partnering a Lewis acidic and a Lewis basic fragment. This type of CO2 activation resembles that found in metalloenzymes, whose outstanding performance in catalytically transforming carbon dioxide encourages further bioinspired research. We have divided this review into three general sections based on the nature of the active sites: metal-free examples (mainly formed by frustrated Lewis pairs), main group-transition metal combinations, and transition metal heterobimetallic complexes. Overall, we discuss one hundred compounds that cooperatively activate carbon dioxide by donor-acceptor interactions, revealing a wide range of structural motifs.

Abstract
A general pathway towards NHC (NHC=N-heterocyclic carbene)-stabilized galliummonotriflates NHC ⋅ GaH2 (OTf) (NHC=IDipp, 1 a; IPr2 Me2 , 1 b; IMes, 1 c; IDipp=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazolin-2-ylidene, IPr2 Me2 =1,3-bis-(diisopropyl)-4,5-dimethyl-imidazolin-2-ylidene, IMes=1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-imidazolin-2-ylidene) is reported. Quantum chemical calculations give detailed insight into the underlying reaction pathway. The obtained NHC ⋅ GaH2 (OTf) compounds were employed in reactions with donor-stabilized pnictogenylboranes to synthesize the elusive cationic parent 13/15/13 chain compounds [IDipp ⋅ GaH2 ER2 E'H2 ⋅ D][OTf] (3 a: D=IDipp, E=P, E'=B, R=H; 3 b: D=NMe3 , E=P, E'=B, R=H, 3 c: D=NMe3 , E=P, E'=B, R=Ph, 3 d: D=IDipp, E=P, E'=Ga, R=H).

Abstract
Since the seminal discovery of phenyl azide by Grieß in 1864, a variety of organic azides (R-N3) have been developed and extensively studied. The amenability of azides to a number of reactions has expanded their utility as building blocks not only in organic synthesis but also in bioorthogonal chemistry and materials science. Over the decades, it has been demonstrated that the reactions of main group compounds with azides lead to diverse N-containing main group molecules. In view of the pronounced progress in this area, this review summarizes the reactions of main group compounds with azides, emphatically introducing their reaction patterns and mechanisms. The reactions of forming inorganic nitrogen species are not included in this review.

Abstract
Derived from structurally similar precursors, two different azidodiboranes went through distinct aryl migration reactions triggered by different boron-boron separation distances. Biphenylene based diborane with a shorter boron-boron distance underwent heterolateral aryl migration to form a seven-membered azadiborepin, while xanthrene based diborane with a longer boron-boron distance afforded a stable bis-azidoborane scaffold. The pyrolysis of such a bis-azidoborane led to eight-membered oxazadiborocine through homolateral aryl migration and subsequent [3+2] cycloaddition. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations unveiled that the boron-boron separation distances were the intrinsic factors for the distinct migrations.

Abstract
Ammonia borane (H3BNH3) is a promising material for hydrogen storage and release. Dehydrogenation of ammonia borane produces small boron-nitrogen hydrides such as aminoborane (H2BNH2) and iminoborane (HBNH). The present study investigates ammonia borane and its two dehydrogenated products for the first time using calculated photoemission spectra of the valence and core electrons. It is found that a significant decrease in the dipole moment was observed associated with the dehydration from 5.397 D in H3BNH3, to 1.942 D in H2BNH2, and to 0.083 D in HBNH. Such reduction in the dipole moment impacts properties such as hydrogen bonding, dihydrogen bonding, and their spectra. Dehydrogenation of H3BNH3 impacts both the valence and core electronic structure of the boron-nitrogen hydrides. The calculated valence vertical ionization energy (VIE) spectra of the boron-nitrogen hydrides show that valence orbitals dominated by 2p-electrons of B and N atoms exhibit large changes, whereas orbitals dominated by s-electrons, such as (3a14a15a1/3σ4σ5σ) remain less affected. The first ionization energy slightly increases from 10.57 eV for H3BNH3 to 11.29 eV for both unsaturated H2BNH2 and HBNH. In core space, the oxidative dehydrogenation of H3BNH3 affects the core electron binding energy (CEBE) of borane and nitrogen oppositely. The B1s binding energies increase from 194.01 eV in H3BNH3 to 196.93 eV in HBNH, up by 2.92 eV, whereas the N1s binding energies decrease from 408.20 eV in H3BNH3 to 404.88 eV in HBNH, dropped by 3.32 eV.

Abstract
An intramolecular phosphine-borane frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) chelate, iPr2P(C6H4)BCy2 or PB (Cy = cyclohexyl), was used to coordinate aminoborane (H2BNH2) and iminoborane (HBNH) units via donor-acceptor stabilization. Attempts to induce dehydrogenation from these B-N adducts with known metal catalysts (or pre-catalysts) have been unsuccessful thus far, and related observations were noted with an H2BNH2 complex supported by a modified FLP chelate bearing a geometrically constrained bicyclic 9-borabicyclo(3.3.1)nonane (BBN) unit. Treatment of the iminoborane adduct [PB{HBNH}] with a chlorinating agent led to ligand activation via B-C bond cleavage instead of the expected H/Cl exchange at boron to give [PB{ClBNH}]. Nucleophilic attack at the boron center in [PB{HBNH}] was observed upon addition of BnK (Bn = benzyl), yielding the amidoborate complex [PB{H(Bn)BNH}{K(THF)2}].

Abstract
Herein, we report the facile synthesis of a three‐dimensional (3D) inorganic analogue of 9,10‐diazido‐9,10‐dihydrodiboraantracene, which turned out to be a monomer in both the solid and solution state, and thermally stable up to 230 °C, representing a rare example of azido borane with boosted Lewis acidity and stability in one. Apart from the classical acid‐base and Staudinger reactions, E−H bond activation (E=B, Si, Ge) was investigated. While the reaction with B−H (9‐borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane) led directly to the 1,1‐addition on Nα upon N2 elimination, the Si−H (Et3SiH, PhMe2SiH) activation proceeded stepwise via 1,2‐addition, with the key intermediates 5int and 6int being isolated and characterized. In contrast, the cooperative Ge−H was reversible and stayed at the 1,2‐addition step.

Abstract
The iminoboryl o-carboranes (Me3Si)-Cb-B≡N-R (Cb = B10C2H10, 3a, R = SiMe3; 3b, R = tBu) have been successfully synthesized by tetrahydrofuran (THF)-promoted isomerization from the corresponding o-carborane-fused aminoboriranes Cb{BN(SiMe3)R} (2). The synthetic protocol of the previously reported borirane 2a was optimized. The borirane Cb{BN(SiMe3)tBu} (2b) and the iminoboranes 3a and 3b were fully characterized by NMR, IR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. The borirane 2a isomerizes more readily than 2b. The kinetics study revealed a bimolecular mechanism between borirane and THF, which is in good agreement with the computationally proposed reaction pathway. The title compounds are thermally robust, but compound 3a dimerized in the presence of a catalytic amount of tBuNC to give the cyclodimer 4. Quick equilibrium between 4 and the isonitrile adduct 4·tBuNC was observed in solution.

Abstract
Adducts of the parent iminoborane isomers, HBNH and NBH2, have been prepared, each stabilized by the frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) chelate iPr2P(C6H4)BCy2 (PB). PB{HBNH} was accessed via dehydrohalogenation, while the corresponding isomer PB{NBH2} was obtained from the borylation of the formal nitrene-FLP complex PB{NH}.

Abstract
The reactivity of the phosphanyl-phosphagallene, [H2 C{N(Dipp)}]2 PP=Ga(Nacnac) (Nacnac=HC[C(Me)N(Dipp)]2 ; Dipp=2,6-i Pr2 C6 H3 ) towards a series of reagents possessing E-H bonds (primary amines, ammonia, water, phenylacetylene, phenylphosphine, and phenylsilane) is reported. Two contrasting reaction pathways are observed, determined by the polarity of the E-H bonds of the substrates. In the case of protic reagents (δ- E-Hδ+ ), a frustrated Lewis pair type of mechanism is operational at room temperature, in which the gallium metal centre acts as a Lewis acid and the pendant phosphanyl moiety deprotonates the substrates. Interestingly, at elevated temperatures both NH2 i Pr and ammonia can react via a second, higher energy, pathway resulting in the hydroamination of the Ga=P bond. By contrast, with hydridic reagents (δ+ E-Hδ- ), such as phenylsilane, hydroelementation of the Ga=P bond is exclusively observed, in line with the polarisation of the Si-H and Ga=P bonds.

Abstract
Lewis-base coordinated iminoborane adducts, in contrast to their isoelectronic analogue imines, remain largely unexplored given the lack of efficient synthetic strategies for generating robust compounds. Herein, we report the preparation of a cyclic amino iminoborane carbene complex 2 obtained in quantitative yield by adding NHC to the 1,8-(trimethylsilyl)aminonaphthalene complex of boron 1 to induce the elimination of trimethylsilyl chloride (TMSCl). The iminoborane-NHC adduct 2 shows unprecedented thermal stability both in the solid and solution phases, due to the rigid, pre-established geometry of the 1,8-diaminonaphthalene scaffold. Theoretical calculations reveal an exceptionally strong iminoborane-NHC bond as a consequence of the enhanced boron-center acidity in combination with the lower steric and electronic shielding. We show that the chemical bond can be understood as donor-acceptor interaction, leading to a different kind of electronic situation of the B═N π-bond. The high conjugation between the pz-lone pair of the tricoordinated sp2 hybridized N atom and the B═N π-system results in a particularly long B═N double bond distance. Taking advantage of the pendant lone pair of the dicoordinated sp2 hybridized N atom, the iminoborane-NHC adduct gives access to NHC-stabilized borenium cation 3 through the reaction with trimethylsilyl triflate (Me3SiOTf) or to the gallium adduct 4 by reacting with GaCl3. Incorporating an iminoborane functional group into a π-conjugated system brings a new bonding situation for broadening the scope of BN-containing polyaromatic systems.

Abstract
The stabilization of silicon(II) and germanium(II) dihydrides by an intramolecular Frustrated Lewis Pair (FLP) ligand, PB, i Pr2 P(C6 H4 )BCy2 (Cy=cyclohexyl) is reported. The resulting hydride complexes [PB{SiH2 }] and [PB{GeH2 }] are indefinitely stable at room temperature, yet can deposit films of silicon and germanium, respectively, upon mild thermolysis in solution. Hallmarks of this work include: 1) the ability to recycle the FLP phosphine-borane ligand (PB) after element deposition, and 2) the single-source precursor [PB{SiH2 }] deposits Si films at a record low temperature from solution (110 °C). The dialkylsilicon(II) adduct [PB{SiMe2 }] was also prepared, and shown to release poly(dimethylsilane) [SiMe2 ]n upon heating. Overall, this study introduces a "closed loop" deposition strategy for semiconductors that steers materials science away from the use of harsh reagents or high temperatures.

Abstract
Herein we describe the first examples of isolable electron-precise diboranes(4) that bear azide moieties: the acyclic 1,2-diazido-1,2-bis(dimethylamino)diborane(4) and the cyclic 1,4-diaryl-2,3-diazido-1,4-diaza-2,3-diborinines (aryl=mesityl, 2,6-xylyl, 4-tolyl). The reported examples are not only stable enough to be observed and isolated (putative transient diborane(4) azides previously reported by our group spontaneously decompose even below room temperature), but some of them are even robust enough to undergo controlled pyrolysis without explosive decomposition at temperatures well above 100 °C. In two cases, the controlled pyrolysis allows the isolation of complex diazaboretidines, which are the apparent dimerization products of endocyclic boryl-iminoboranes.

Abstract
The reactions of organic azides with diaryl(dihalo)diboranes(4) were explored, resulting in the observation of a number of surprising reactivity patterns. The reaction of phenyl azide with 1,2-diaryl-1,2-dihalodiboranes(4) resulted in the formation of five-membered rings comprising diboryl-triazenes with retention of the boron-boron bond, while the reaction of the peculiar 1,1-di(9-anthryl)-2,2-difluorodiborane(4) with phenyl azide yielded a six-membered ring bearing a diboryl-triazene, whereby the B-B bond was ruptured by the insertion of an arylnitrene-like reactive intermediate. Both types of heterocycles feature unprecedented connectivity patterns and are very rare examples of boryl triazenes beyond the more common 1,2,3-triazolatoboranes. They are also the product of a unique type of aryl migration from a boron center to the phenyl azide γ-nitrogen center. Lastly, the substitution of 1,2-diaryl-1,2-dihalodiboranes(4) with azide groups, using trimethylsilyl azide as the transfer reagent, yielded boryl-tetrazaboroles and diboryldiazadiboretidines (as side-products), invoking the intermediacy of the first N-boryl-substituted iminoboranes, which are BN isosteres of monoborylated alkynes. The synthetic results are complemented with mechanistic proposals derived from quantum-chemical calculations.

Abstract
The reaction of HN3 with the strong Lewis acid B(C6 F5 )3 led to the formation of a very labile HN3 ⋅B(C6 F5 )3 adduct, which decomposed to an aminoborane, H(C6 F5 )NB(C6 F5 )2 , above -20 °C with release of molecular nitrogen and simultaneous migration of a C6 F5 group from boron to the nitrogen atom. The intermediary formation of azide-borane adducts with B(C6 F5 )3 was also demonstrated for a series of organic azides, RN3 (R=Me3 Si, Ph, 3,5-(CF3 )2 C6 H3 ), which also underwent Staudinger-like decomposition along with C6 F5 group migration. In accord with experiment, computations revealed rather small barriers towards nitrogen release for these highly labile azide adducts for all organic substituents except R=Me3 Si (m.p. 120 °C, Tdec =189 °C). Hydrolysis of the aminoboranes provided C6 F5 -substituted amines, HN(R)(C6 F5 ), in good yields.

Abstract
Since the discovery of the first stable N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) in the beginning of the 1990s, these divalent carbon species have become a common and available class of compounds, which have found numerous applications in academic and industrial research. Their important role as two-electron donor ligands, especially in transition metal chemistry and catalysis, is difficult to overestimate. In the past decade, there has been tremendous research attention given to the chemistry of low-coordinate main group element compounds. Significant progress has been achieved in stabilization and isolation of such species as Lewis acid/base adducts with highly tunable NHC ligands. This has allowed investigation of numerous novel types of compounds with unique electronic structures and opened new opportunities in the rational design of novel organic catalysts and materials. This Review gives a general overview of this research, basic synthetic approaches, key features of NHC-main group element adducts, and might be useful for the broad research community.

Abstract
The previously unreported carbene-phosphine adduct (IPr)PCl2N3 [IPr = (HCNDipp)2C:; Dipp = 2,6-iPr2C6H3] was synthesized and used as a synthon toward the elusive dichlorophosphazene monomer unit, [Cl2P=N]. (IPr)PCl2N3 was found to undergo halide and azide abstraction when combined with various electrophiles and its thermolysis yielded the unexpected Staudinger reaction product (IPr=N)PCl2.

Abstract
We report on depolymerization reactions of poly(phosphinoboranes). The cleavage of the polymers [H2 PBH2 ]n (2 a), [tBuHPBH2 ]n (2 c), [PhHPBH2 ]n (2 e) and the oligomer [Ph2 PBH2 ]n (2 b), with strong Lewis bases (LBs), in particular with NHCs, leads to the corresponding monomeric phosphanylboranes R1 R2 PBH2 LB. It is observed that the depolymerization depends on the strength and stability of the LBs as well as on the substitution pattern of the poly(phosphinoboranes). The solid state structures of the monomeric phosphinoboranes H2 PBH2 NHCMe (NHC=N-heterocyclic carbene) (4 a), H2 PBH2 NHCdipp (5 a) and tBuHPBH2 NHCMe (4 c) were determined. DFT calculations support the experimentally observed reaction behavior.

Abstract
The first trihydroborate bearing a pentacoordinated phosphorus atom was synthesized as a new P-B bonded compound. Hydride abstraction of the trihydroborate gave an intermediary dihydroborane, which showed hydroboration reactivity and was trapped with pyridine whilst maintaining the P-B bond. The dihydroborane underwent a rearrangement, which involved a double ring expansion to compensate for the unbalanced coordination states of the phosphorus and boron atoms, to give a new fused bicyclic phosphine-boronate.

Abstract
A donor-acceptor complex of HBNH was prepared via thermolysis of a carbene-stabilized azidoborane. The reactivity of the fundamentally important HBNH unit (inorganic alkyne analogue) was explored in detail, including attempts to convert this species and related hydrido(azido)borane cations into molecular complexes of BN. This work provides added impetus for the development of molecular precursors that can release bulk boron nitride (a desirable insulator and thermal conductor) under mild conditions, and from solution.

Abstract
Experimental studies suggest that the compound (NHCbz )2 C2 H2 can be considered as a complex of a distorted acetylene fragment which is stabilised by benzoannelated N-heterocyclic carbene ligands (NHCbz )→(C2 H2 )←(NHCbz ). A quantum chemical analysis of the electronic structures shows that the description with dative bonds is more favourable than with electron-sharing double bonds (NHCbz )=(C2 H2 )=(NHCbz ).

Abstract
The reactivity of tungsten carbonyl adducts of Group 14 element (Ge, Sn and Pb) dihalides towards the metal-based donors (η(5)-C5H5)Rh(PMe2Ph)2 and Pt(PCy3)2 was examined. When (η(5)-C5H5)Rh(PMe2Ph)2 was treated with the Lewis acid supported Ge(ii) complex, THF·GeCl2·W(CO)5, cyclopentadienyl ring activation occurred, whereas the analogous Lewis acidic units SnCl2·W(CO)5 and PbCl2 form direct adducts with the Rh complex to yield Rh-Sn and Rh-Pb dative bonds. Attempts to prepare metal coordinated element(ii) hydrides by adding hydride sources to the above mentioned rhodium-E(ii) halide complexes were unsuccessful; in each case insoluble products were formed along with regeneration of free (η(5)-C5H5)Rh(PMe2Ph)2. In a parallel study, ECl2·W(CO)5 (E = Ge or Sn) groups were shown to participate in E-Cl oxidation addition chemistry with (Cy3P)2Pt to give the formal Pt(ii) complexes ClPt(PCy3)2ECl·W(CO)5.

Abstract
This Review article deals with the synthesis and properties of inorganic hydrocarbon analogues: binary chemical species that contain heavier Group 14 elements (Si, Ge, Sn or Pb) and hydrogen as components. Rapid advances in our general knowledge of these species have enabled the development of industrially relevant processes such as the hydrosilylation of unsaturated substrates and the chemical vapor deposition of semi-conducting films.

Abstract
Mild thermolysis of Lewis base stabilized phosphinoborane monomers R(1)R(2)P-BH2⋅NMe3 (R(1),R(2)=H, Ph, or tBu/H) at room temperature to 100 °C provides a convenient new route to oligo- and polyphosphinoboranes [R(1)R(2)P-BH2]n. The polymerization appears to proceed via the addition/head-to-tail polymerization of short-lived free phosphinoborane monomers, R(1)R(2)P-BH2. This method offers access to high molar mass materials, as exemplified by poly(tert-butylphosphinoborane), that are currently inaccessible using other routes (e.g. catalytic dehydrocoupling).
