Abstract
A general approach for the synthesis of covalent and ionic amine borane complexes containing trinitromethyl fragments has been developed through metathesis reactions between amine chloroborane complexes and potassium salt of trinitromethyl (K[C(NO2)3]). Five covalent and ionic trinitromethyl amine borane complexes have been synthesized in good yields with high purity and it is found that the ionic complex, [H2B(NH3)2][C(NO2)3], might be a promising energetic material on the basis of the investigation of its thermal decomposition behaviour. A general approach has been developed through which five covalent and ionic amine borane complexes containing trinitromethyl fragments were synthesized.![]()

Abstract
Trimethylamine-boranecarboxylic acid (CH3)3N-BH2COOH and other amine carboxyboranes have been observed to undergo slow decarbonylation in neutral aqueous solution. This reaction, when it occurs in vivo, may have a therapeutic effect by delivering low concentrations of carbon monoxide over an extended period. In order to identify a possible mechanistic pathway for decarbonylation, the smallest tertiary amine derivative and its corresponding carboxylate ion were studied using CCSD(T)/PCM/6-311++G(2d,p)//M06-2X/PCM/6-311++G(2d,p) model chemistry. The proposed mechanistic pathway begins with a trimethylamine boranecarboxylate ion, which first undergoes an internal substitution reaction (SNi) to give free amine and the carboxyborane anion BH2COO−. The latter cyclic ion then releases CO via a rapid chelotropic fragmentation. The role of water solvent in these reactions was explored by structural and energetic analysis of hydrogen-bonded complexes. It was found that complexation with water inhibits dissociation of trimethylamine by stabilizing the trimethylamine carboxyborane anion, whereas water accelerates CO loss by stabilizing the polar chelotropic transition state. According to a DFT model, CO is formed from trimethylamine boranecarboxylate, a carbon monoxide releasing molecular pro-drug (CORM), via initial SNi subsitution followed by chelotropic fragmentation of the resulting cyclic carboxyborane anion.![]()

Abstract
Designing organic saccharide sensors for use in aqueous solution is a nontrivial endeavor. Incorporation of hydrogen bonding groups on a sensor's receptor unit to target saccharides is an obvious strategy but not one that is likely to ensure analyte-receptor interactions over analyte-solvent or receptor-solvent interactions. Phenylboronic acids are known to reversibly and covalently bind saccharides (diols in general) with highly selective affinity in aqueous solution. Therefore, recent work has sought to design such sensors and understand their mechanism for allowing fluorescence with bound saccharides. In past work, binding orientations of several saccharides were determined to dimethylaminomethylphenylboronic acid (DMPBA) receptors with an anthracene fluorophore; however, the binding orientation of d-fructose to such a sensor could not be determined. In this work, we investigate the potential binding modes by generating 20 possible bidentate and six possible tridentate modes between fructose and DMPBA, a simplified receptor model. Gas phase and implicit solvent geometry optimizations, with a myriad functional/basis set pairs, were carried out to identify the lowest energy bidentate and tridentate binding modes of d-fructose to DMPBA. An interesting hydrogen transfer was observed during selected bidentate gas phase optimizations; this transfer suggests a strong sharing of the hydrogen atom between the boronate hydroxyl and amine nitrogen.

Abstract
Boronic acids (R-B(OH)2) and their boroxine (R3B3O3) dehydration products have emerged as important classes of compounds with a multitude of diverse applications. However, the available heats of formation for these compounds are not always as accurate as would be required for further use. In this study the heats of formation at 298.15 K of R-B(OH)2 and R3B3O3 (R = H, Li, HBe, H2B, H3C, H2N, HO, F, and Cl) have been calculated at the G2, G3[G3B3], and G4 levels of theory and used to determine the enthalpy changes for the dehydration reactions: 3 R-B(OH)2 → R3B3O3 + 3 H2O; comparisons are made with other rigorous levels of theory, e.g. CBS-Q[CBS-QB3] and W1U, as well as with experimental values wherever possible. Enthalpy changes for the dehydration reactions have also been calculated using second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) with the Dunning-Woon correlation-consistent aug-cc-pVDZ and aug-cc-pVTZ basis sets, and B3LYP density functional theory with the 6-311++G(2df,2pd) basis set. With the exception of H2N-B(OH)2, the dehydration reactions are consistently predicted to be exothermic. Our results provide a cautionary note for the use of the B3LYP functional in the calculation of structures and energies of boronic acids and boroxines. Where comparisons could be made, the G4 and W1U predictions for the heats of formation of these boron compounds differ significantly.

Abstract
Boroxines are the six-membered cyclotrimeric dehydration products of organoboronic acids, 3R–B(OH)2 → R3B3O3 + 3H2O, and in recent years have emerged as a useful class of organoboron molecules with applications in organic synthesis both as reagents and catalysts, as structural components in boronic-acid-derived pharmaceutical agents, and as anion acceptors and electrolyte additives for battery materials [Korich, A. L.; Iovine, P. M. Dalton Trans. 2010, 39, 1423−1431]. Second-order Møller–Plesset perturbation theory, in conjunction with the Dunning–Woon correlation-consistent cc-pVDZ, aug-cc-pVDZ, cc-pVTZ, and aug-cc-pVTZ basis sets, was used to investigate the structures and relative energies of the endo–exo, anti, and syn conformers of the aliphatic boronic acids R–B(OH)2 (R = H, H3C, H2N, HO, and F), as well as the thermodynamics of their boroxine formation; single-point calculations at the MP2/aug-cc-pVQZ, MP2/aug-cc-pV5Z, and CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ levels using the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ optimized geometries were also performed in selected cases. The endo–exo conformer was generally lowest in energy in vacuo, as well as in PCM and CPCM models of aqueous and carbon tetrachloride media. The values of ΔH(298)(0) for boroxine formation via dehydration from the endo–exo conformers of these aliphatic boronic acids ranged from −2.9 for (H2N)3B3O3 to +12.2 kcal/mol for H3B3O3 at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level in vacuo; for H3B3O3, the corresponding values in PCM/UFF implicit carbon tetrachloride and aqueous media were +11.2 and +9.8 kcal/mol, respectively. On the basis of our calculations, we recommend that ΔHf(298K) for boroxine listed in the JANAF compilation needs to be revised from −290.0 to approximately −277.0 kcal/mol.

Abstract
o-(N,N-Dialkylaminomethyl)arylboronate systems are an important class of compounds in diol-sensor development. We report results from a computational investigation of fourteen o-(N,N-dialkylaminomethyl)arylboronates using second-order Møller-Plesset (MP2) perturbation theory. Geometry optimizations were performed at the MP2/cc-pVDZ level and followed by single-point calculations at the MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ(cc-pVTZ) levels. These results are compared to those from density functional theory (DFT) at the PBE1PBE(PBE1PBE-D)/6-311++G(d,p)(aug-cc-pVDZ) levels, as well as to experiment. Results from continuum PCM and CPCM solvation models were employed to assess the effects of a bulk aqueous environment. Although the behavior of o-(N,N-dialkylaminomethyl) free acid and ester proved to be complicated, we were able to extract some important trends from our calculations: (1) for the free acids the intramolecular hydrogen-bonded B-O-H···N seven-membered ring conformers 12 and 16 are found to be slightly lower in energy than the dative-bonded N→B five-membered ring conformers 10 and 14 while conformers 13 and 17, with no direct boron-nitrogen interaction, are significantly higher in energy than 12 and 16; (2) for the esters where no intramolecular B-O-H···N bonded form is possible, the N→B conformers 18 and 21 are significantly lower in energy than the no-interaction forms 20 and 23; (3) H(2)O insertion reactions into the N→B structures 10, 14, 18, and 21 leading to the seven-membered intermolecular hydrogen-bonded B···OH(2)···N ring structures 11, 15, 19, and 22 are all energetically favorable.

Abstract
We report results from a computational investigation of the oxidative deboronation of boroglycine, H2N-CH2-B(OH)2, using H2O and H2O2 as the reactive oxygen species (ROS) to yield aminomethanol, H2N-CH2-OH; these results complement our study on the protodeboronation of boroglycine to produce methylamine, H2N-CH3 (Larkin et al. J. Phys. Chem. A 2007, 111, 6489-6500). Second-order Møller-Plesset (MP2) perturbation theory with Dunning-Woon correlation-consistent (cc) basis sets were used for the calculations with comparisons made to results from density functional theory (DFT) at the PBE1PBE/6-311++G(d,p)(cc-pVDZ) levels. The effects of a bulk aqueous environment were also incorporated into the calculations employing PCM and CPCM methodology. Using H2O as the ROS, the reaction H2O + H2N-CH2-B(OH)2 --> H2N-CH2-OH + H-B(OH)2 was calculated to be endothermic; the value of DeltaH(298)(0) was +12.0 kcal/mol at the MP2(FC)/cc-pVTZ computational level in vacuo and +13.7 kcal/mol in PCM aqueous media; the corresponding value for the activation barrier, DeltaH(double dagger), was +94.3 kcal/mol relative to the separated reactants in vacuo and +89.9 kcal/mol in PCM aqueous media. In contrast, the reaction H2O2 + H2N-CH2-B(OH)2 --> H2N-CH2-OH + B(OH)3 was calculated to be highly exothermic with an DeltaH(298)(0) value of -100.9 kcal/mol at the MP2(FC)/cc-pVTZ computational level in vacuo and -99.6 kcal/mol in CPCM aqueous media; the highest-energy transition state for the multistep process associated with this reaction involved the rearrangement of H2N-CH2-B(OH)(OOH) to H2N-CH2-O-B(OH)2 with a DeltaH(double dagger) value of +23.2 kcal/mol in vacuo relative to the separated reactants. These computational results for boroglycine are in accord with the experimental observations for the deboronation of the FDA approved anticancer drug bortezomib (Velcade, PS-341), where it was found to be the principle deactivation pathway (Labutti et al. Chem. Res. Toxicol. 2006, 19, 539-546).

Abstract
The inherent difficulty in modeling the energetic character of the B-N dative bond has been investigated utilizing density functional theory and ab initio methods. The underlying influence of basis set size and functions, thermal corrections, and basis set superposition error (BSSE) on the predicted binding enthalpy of ammonia borane (H3B-NH3) and four methyl-substituted ammonia trimethylboranes ((CH3)3B-N(CH3)nH3-n; n = 0-3) has been evaluated and compared with experiment. HF, B3LYP, MPW1K, MP2, QCISD, and QCISD(T) have been utilized with a wide range of Pople and correlation-consistent basis sets, totaling 336 levels of theory. MPW1K, B3LYP, and HF result in less BSSE and converge to binding enthalpies with fewer basis functions than post-SCF techniques; however, the methods fail to model experimental binding enthalpies and trends accurately, producing mean absolute deviations (MADs) of 5.1, 10.8, and 16.3 kcal/mol, respectively. Despite slow convergence, MP2, QCISD, and QCISD(T) using the 6-311++G(3df,2p) basis set reproduce the experimental binding enthalpy trend and result in lower MADs of 2.2, 2.6, and 0.5 kcal/mol, respectively, when corrected for BSSE and a residual convergence error of ca. 1.3-1.6 kcal/mol. Accuracy of the predicted binding enthalpy is linked to correct determination of the bond's dative character given by charge-transfer frustration, QCTF = -(Delta QN + Delta QB). Frustration gauges the incompleteness of charge transfer between the donor and the acceptor. The binding enthalpy across ammonia borane and methylated complexes is correlated to its dative character (R2 = 0.91), where a more dative bond (less charge-transfer frustration) results in a weaker binding enthalpy. However, a balance of electronic and steric factors must be considered to explain trends in experimentally reported binding enthalpies. Dative bond descriptors, such as bond ionicity and covalency are important in the accurate characterization of the dative bond. The B-N dative bond in ammonia borane is 65% ionic, moderately strong (-27.5 +/- 0.5 kcal/mol), and structurally flexible on the donor side to relieve steric congestion.

Abstract
We have optimized the ground-state geometry of nine series of increasingly long oligomers, using six hybrid density functionals (O3LYP, B3LYP, B97-1, B98, PBE0, and BHHLYP) combined with three different atomic basis sets. In each case, the obtained bond length alternation (BLA) is compared to the corresponding MP2 values. Three phenomenological categories have been set up. In the first, the BLA exponentially decreases, in which case all the tested functionals give results in very good agreement with MP2. In the second category fall the symmetric oligomers that, due to the Peierls theorem, show large BLA. For these chains, BHHLYP tends to give too large and quickly converging BLA wrt chain length, while O3LYP often leads to the opposite misjudgments, and the remaining hybrids provide valuable results. In the third category, one finds asymmetric compounds presenting significantly unequal bond lengths, for which the divergence between DFT and wave function approaches can be dramatic. Indeed, all hybrids yield too small BLA values, especially for long chain lengths. We also study the effect of chain conformation on the BLA.
