Abstract
Herein, a transition-metal-free phosphorylation of benzyl fluorides with P(O)-H compounds is disclosed. In the presence of tBuOK, various benzyl fluorides react with P(O)-H compounds to produce the corresponding benzyl phosphine oxides, phosphinates, and phosphonates in good to high yields. This base-promoted phosphorylation reaction offers a facile and general strategy for the construction of a C(sp3)-P bond.

Abstract
Cyclohexa-1,3-dienes bearing a tetrafluoroethylene group underwent highly regioselective hydrosilylation in the presence of 1-10 mol % Co2(CO)8 in 1,2-dichloroethane under mild conditions (reflux, 3 h), which led to an abundant yield of homoallylsilanes. Mechanistic studies proved that the reaction proceeds as per the modified Chalk-Harrod mechanism; via DFT calculation, the reason for homoallylsilanes being exclusively obtained was demonstrated. The formal synthesis of a tetrafluorinated negative-type liquid crystal demonstrated the synthetic utility of such hydrosilylation.

Abstract
A series of redox-responsive ferrocenyl-substituted boranes and boronic esters were synthesized. Oxidation of the ferrocenyl ligand to the ferrocenium resulted in a drastic increase in the Lewis acidity beyond the strength of SbF5 , which was investigated experimentally and computationally. The resulting highly Lewis acidic boron compounds were used for catalytic C-F and S-F bond activation.

Abstract
ConspectusRecent ground-breaking advances in synthetic chemistry have transformed main-group molecules from simple laboratory curiosities into powerful materials for a range of applications in all realms of life. Electron-accepting or -deficient materials, in particular, have been the focus of development since their generally limited availability and stability have been major hurdles in establishing new practical applications. In addition to the general requirements for the design of these materials, a deeper understanding of their inherent electronics and molecular interactions is a requirement for the successful expansion of their utility. Previously, the incorporation of electron-deficient main-group elements, such as boron, into a conjugated organic framework was considered to be an effective route toward the synthesis of high-performing electron-accepting materials. However, challenging conditions such as the need for bulky substituents for kinetic stabilization, air-free and moisture-sensitive synthesis, and restricted storage abilities have led to the investigation of other elements across the periodic table to be used in a similar vein. Lately, heavier main-group elements such as Si, Ge, P, As, Sb, Bi, S, Se, and Te have also proven to be advantageous for electron-accepting materials as they exhibit polarizable molecular orbitals that are easily accessible to electrons or nucleophiles. This has laid the foundation for materials chemistry research on a variety of applications, including optoelectronic devices such as OLEDs, organic photovoltaics, energy storage such as in batteries and capacitors, fluorescent sensors with both biological and physiological applications, organocatalysis and synthesis, and many more. Among the main-group-element-based materials, organophosphorus species are privileged as their frontier orbitals are easily altered by chemical modification or/and structural and geometrical manipulations at the phosphorus center itself, without the need for kinetic stabilization, or through electronic modification of the conjugated system. The five-membered phosphorus-based heterocycle, phosphole, is a particularly interesting motif in this context, and extensive studies on the corresponding materials have uncovered the rich fundamentals of the σ*-π* interaction that imparts intriguing accepting properties while sustaining morphological and physiological stability for utilization in real-life scenarios. Moreover, beyond the σ*-π* interaction in phospholes that is key to many of their acceptor properties as a material, the use of phosphorus also gives rise to easily accessible, low-lying antibonding orbitals. They pave the way for Lewis acid phosphorus species that, despite being considered to be electron-rich species in general, open up several possibilities for intriguing chemical reactivity through hypervalency. Herein, we representatively discuss some recent advancements through the various approaches that leverage the unique structures and electronics of organophosphorus species toward the design of materials with outstanding electronic, chemical, and structural properties and reactivities for the functional material world.

Abstract
![]()
In this work, benzotriazolium salts have been introduced
as efficient,
readily accessible, bench-stable Lewis acid catalysts. Though these
sorts of N-heterocyclic compounds have found wide applications as
ionic liquids or electrolytes, their Lewis acid catalytic activity
remained unexplored. Herein, their potential as Lewis acid catalysts
was demonstrated in two prototypical allylic and Nazarov cyclization
reactions, showing a matching reactivity and allowing low catalytic
loadings (down to 0.5 mol %).

Abstract
Advances in synthetic carbohydrate chemistry have dramatically improved access to common glycans. However, many novel methods still fail to adequately address challenges associated with chemical glycosylation and glycan synthesis. Since a challenge of glycosylation has remained, scientists have been frequently returning to the traditional glycosyl donors. This review is dedicated to glycosyl halides that have played crucial roles in shaping the field of glycosciences and continue to pave the way toward our understanding of chemical glycosylation.

Abstract
The stoichiometric reactions of antimony trichloride, trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate, and diiminopyridine ligands lead to the formation of N,N',N''-chelated SbCl2 cationic complexes. Methyl and phenyl substituents on the imine carbons of the ligand yielded structures with a lone pair on antimony and the hydrogen substituted variant was notably different as it forms a Menshutkin complex with meta-xylene in the solid-state.

Abstract
AbstractThe unique properties of fluorine-containing organic compounds make fluorine substitution attractive for the development of pharmaceuticals and various specialty materials, which have inspired the evolution of diverse C-F bond activation techniques. Although many advances have been made in functionalizations of activated C-F bonds utilizing transition metal complexes, there are fewer approaches available for nonactivated C-F bonds due to the difficulty in oxidative addition of transition metals to the inert C-F bonds. In this regard, using Lewis acid to abstract the fluoride and light/radical initiator to generate the radical intermediate have emerged as powerful tools for activating those inert C-F bonds. Meanwhile, these transition-metal-free processes are greener, economical, and for the pharmaceutical industry, without heavy metal residues. This review provides an overview of recent C-F bond activations and functionalizations under transition-metal-free conditions. The key mechanisms involved are demonstrated and discussed in detail. Finally, a brief discussion on the existing limitations of this field and our perspective are presented.

Abstract
Alkylation of benzotriazoles is synthetically challenging, often leading to mixtures of N1 and N2 alkylation. Herein, metal-free catalytic site-selective N1-alkylation of benzotriazoles with diazoalkanes is described in the presence of 10 mol% of B(C6F5)3. These reactions provide N1-alkylated benzotriazoles in good to excellent yields and this protocol is successfully adapted to gram-scale syntheses as well as a derivative with antimicrobial activity.

Abstract
The history of silyl cations has all the makings of a drama but with a happy ending. Being considered reactive intermediates impossible to isolate in the condensed phase for decades, their actual characterization in solution and later in solid state did only fuel the discussion about their existence and initially created a lot of controversy. This perception has completely changed today, and silyl cations and their donor-stabilized congeners are now widely accepted compounds with promising use in synthetic chemistry. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the fundamental facts and principles of the chemistry of silyl cations, including reliable ways of their preparation as well as their physical and chemical properties. The striking features of silyl cations are their enormous electrophilicity and as such reactivity as super Lewis acids as well as fluorophilicity. Known applications rely on silyl cations as reactants, stoichiometric reagents, and promoters where the reaction success is based on their steady regeneration over the course of the reaction. Silyl cations can even be discrete catalysts, thereby opening the next chapter of their way into the toolbox of synthetic methodology.

Abstract
In 2005, a facile dihydrogen activation was reported by the Power group using an alkyne analog of germanium [ArGe≡GeAr; Ar=2,6-Trip2 -C6 H3 (Trip=2,4,6-i Pr3 -C6 H2 )]. After that, a significant progress has been made in the activation of various small molecules by main-group compounds, and a variety of stoichiometric and catalytic processes have been formulated using the p-block elements. In this regard, compounds containing low-valent main-group elements with a frontier orbitals of relatively small energy gaps or compounds forming frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) became quite successful. In spite of these promising stoichiometric and catalytic transformations, redox-cycling catalysts based on main-group elements remain extremely rare. Recently, it has been observed that pincer type ligands supported geometry constrained main-group compounds are capable of acting as redox catalysts similar to those of the transition metals. In this review, we focus on the synthesis and the structural aspects of the geometry constrained main-group compounds using pincer ligands. Emphasis has been placed on their applications on catalytic activity and small molecules activation.

Abstract
The electronically unsaturated three-coordinated hydridoborenium cations [LBH]+[HB(C6F5)3]- (1) and [LBH]+[B(C6F5)4]- (2), supported by a bis(phosphinimino)amide ligand, were found to be excellent catalysts for hydrosilylation of a range of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes and ketones under mild reaction conditions (L = [{(2,4,6-Me3C6H2N)P(Ph2)}2N]). The key steps of the catalytic cycle for hydrosilylation of PhCHO were monitored via in situ multinuclear NMR measurements for catalysts 1 and 2. The combined effect of carbonyl activation via the Lewis acidic hydridoborenium cation and the hydridic nature of the borate counteranion in 1 makes it a more efficient catalyst in comparison to that of carbonyl activation via the predominant Lewis acid activation pathway operating with catalyst 2. The catalytic cycle of 1 showed hydride transfer from the borate moiety [HB(C6F5)3]- to PhCHO in the first step, forming [PhCH2-O-B(C6F5)3]-, which subsequently underwent σ-bond metathesis with Et3SiH to form the product, PhCH2-O-SiEt3. Quantum chemical calculations also support the borate anion mediated mechanism with 1. In contrast, the reaction catalyzed by 2 proceeds predominantly via the Lewis acid activation of the carbonyl group involving [LB(H)←OC(H)Ph]+[B(C6F5)4]- as the transition state and [LBOCH2Ph]+[B(C6F5)4]- as the intermediate.

Abstract
Challenges in the assembly of glycosidic bonds in oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates pose a bottleneck in enabling the remarkable promise of advances in the glycosciences. Here, we report a strategy that applies unique features of highly electrophilic boron catalysts, such as tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, in addressing a number of the current limitations of methods in glycoside synthesis. This approach utilizes glycosyl fluoride donors and silyl ether acceptors while tolerating the Lewis basic environment found in carbohydrates. The method can be carried out at room temperature using air- and moisture-stable forms of the catalyst, with loadings as low as 0.5 mol %. These characteristics enable a wide array of glycosylation patterns to be accessed, including all C1-C2 stereochemical relationships in the glucose, mannose, and rhamnose series. This method allows one-pot, iterative glycosylations to generate oligosaccharides directly from monosaccharide building blocks. These advances enable the rapid and experimentally straightforward preparation of complex oligosaccharide units from simple building blocks.

Abstract
The highly selective synthesis of spirobiindanes, alkenyl chlorides, and monofluoroalkenes via the cleavage of inert C(sp3)–F bonds in unactivated gem-difluoroalkanes using readily available and inexpensive aluminum-based Lewis acids of low toxicity is reported. The selectivity of this reaction can be controlled by modifying the substituents on the central aluminum atom of the promoter. An intramolecular cascade Friedel-Crafts alkylation of unactivated gem-difluorocarbons can be achieved using a stoichiometric amount of AlCl3. The subsequent synthesis of alkenyl chlorides via F/Cl exchange followed by an elimination can be accomplished using AlEt2Cl as a fluoride scavenger and halogen source. The defluorinative elimination of acyclic and cyclic gem-difluorocarbons to give monofluoroalkenes can be achieved using AlEt3.

Abstract
Fluorinated organic compounds are produced in abundance by the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industry, making such compounds attractive as building blocks for further functionalization. Unfortunately, activation of C(sp3)-F bond in saturated fluorocarbons, especially for aliphatic gem-difluoroalkanes, remains challenging. Here we describe the selective activation of inert C(sp3)-F bonds catalyzed by B(C6F5)3. In hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP), chemically robust aliphatic gem-difluorides are converted in high yields to the corresponding substituted 2,2′,3,3′-tetrahydro-1,1′-spirobiindenes via a B(C6F5)3-catalyzed intramolecular cascade Friedel-Crafts cyclization, not requiring a silicon-based trapping reagent. However, in the absence of a hydrogen-bonding donor solvent such as HFIP, the aliphatic gem-difluorides preferentially engage in a defluorination/elimination process that provides monofluorinated alkenes in good yields. Furthermore, a series of substituted 1-alkyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-indenes was obtained in high yield from the B(C6F5)3-catalyzed defluorinative cyclization of aliphatic secondary monofluorides in HFIP. The protocol could inspire development of a new class of main-group Lewis acid-catalyzed C(sp3)-F bond activation in general unactivated fluorocarbons.

Abstract
The synthesis and catalytic reactivity of a class of water-tolerant cationic phosphorus-based Lewis acids is reported.
The synthesis and catalytic reactivity of a class of water-tolerant cationic phosphorus-based Lewis acids is reported. Corrole-based phosphorus(v) cations of the type [ArP(cor)][B(C6F5)4] (Ar = C6H5, 3,5-(CF3)2C6H3; cor = 5,10,15-(C6H5)3corrolato3–, 5,10,15-(C6F5)3corrolato3–) were synthesized and characterized by NMR and X-ray diffraction. The visible electronic absorption spectra of these cationic phosphacorroles depend strongly on the coordination environment at phosphorus, and their Lewis acidities are quantified by spectrophotometric titrations. DFT analyses establish that the character of the P-acceptor orbital comprises P–N antibonding interactions in the basal plane of the phosphacorrole. Consequently, the cationic phosphacorroles display unprecedented stability to water and alcohols while remaining highly active and robust Lewis acid catalysts for carbonyl hydrosilylation, Csp3–H bond functionalization, and carbohydrate deoxygenation reactions.
