Abstract
Hydrogen-bonded aggregates of B(C6F5)3 and water are proven as strong Brønsted acid catalysts, which have the advantages of low toxicity and broad compatibility. Sulfoxonium ylides are stable surrogates of diazo compounds, which participate in various reactions due to their versatile reactivity. Based on these characteristics, a strategy for C-N bond or C-C bond construction of aromatic amines with sulfoxonium ylides under metal-free catalytic conditions was established. This method has advantages of mild conditions and excellent yield, which is suitable for the N-H or C-H functionalization of various aromatic amine compounds.

Abstract
Metal-free catalytic C-H functionalization is highly desired for the construction of C-C bonds. We herein report a highly chemoselective consecutive C-H [2+3]-cyclative functionalization for the simultaneous formation of two C-C bonds with construction of polycyclic phenols catalyzed by commercially available and low-cost B(C6 F5 )3 . This catalytic system tolerates a wide range of substrate scope, providing a series of 2,6,7,8-tetrahydroacenaphthylen-3-ol-type polycyclic compounds efficiently. Several derivatizations of the catalytic products have also been conducted to show the potential application of this method in synthesis of polycyclic compounds.

Abstract
Using D2O as a deuterium source, a method for the deuteration of intra- and extra-cyclic methylene has been developed for cyclic ethers with moderate yield and excellent deuterium incorporation. This transformation features superb functional group tolerance in a wide range of alkynols. Notably, the critical factor to achieve high deuterium incorporation is determined by the hydrogen isotope exchange reaction of an unstable oxonium ion. This novel methodology provides an efficient and concise synthetic route to a number of valuable deuterated cyclic ethers that are often difficult to prepare with other methods.

Abstract
Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane (TPFPB) is a unique Lewis acid that catalyzes the condensation between hydrosilanes (Si-H) and alkoxysilanes (Si-OR), leading to the formation of siloxane bonds (Si-OSi) with the release of hydrocarbon (R-H) as a byproduct-the so-called Piers-Rubinsztajn reaction. The analogous reactions of hydrosilanes with silanols (Si-OH), alcohols (R-OH), ethers (R-OR') or water in the presence of TPFPB leads to the formation of a siloxane bond, alkoxysilane (Si-OR or Si-OR') or silanol (Si-OH), respectively. The above processes, often referred to as Piers-Rubinsztajn reactions, provide new synthetic tools for the controlled synthesis of siloxane materials under mild conditions with high yields. The common feature of these reactions is the TPFPB-mediated hydride transfer from silicon to carbon or hydrogen. This review presents a summary of 20 years of research efforts related to this field, with a focus on new synthetic methodologies leading to numerous previously difficult to synthesize well-defined siloxane oligomers, polymers and copolymers of a complex structure and potential applications of these new materials. In addition, the mechanistic aspects of the recently discovered reactions involving hydride transfer from silicon to silicon are discussed in more detail.

Abstract
B(C6F5)3·H2O has been long recognized as a common Brønsted acid. The lack of X-ray crystal structure of B(C6F5)3·H2O with other substrates has greatly limited the development of a new catalytic mode. In this work, a complex of B(C6F5)3·H2O and amide 2-phenyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one with hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions is characterized by X-ray diffraction. Such noncovalent interactions in solution also exist, as verified by NMR, UV-Vis absorption, and fluorescence emission measurements. Moreover, the mixture of amide 2-phenyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one and B(C6F5)3·H2O, instead of other tested Brønsted acids, shows a tailing absorption band in the visible light region (400-450 nm). Based on the photoactive properties of the complex, a photoredox catalysis is developed to construct α-aminoamides under mild conditions.

Abstract
Functionalization-induced phase transitions in polymer systems in which a postpolymerization reaction drives polymers to organize into colloidal aggregates are a versatile method to create nanoscale structures with applications related to biomedicine and nanoreactors. Current functionalization methods to stimulate polymer self-assembly are based on covalent bond formation. Therefore, there is a need to explore alternative reactions that result in noncovalent bond formation. Here, we demonstrate that when the Lewis acid, tris(pentafluorophenyl) borane (BCF), is added to a solution containing poly(4-diphenylphosphino styrene) (PDPPS), the system will either macrophase-separate or form micelles if PDPPS is a homopolymer or a block in a copolymer, respectively. The Lewis adduct-induced phase transition is hypothesized to result from the favorable interaction between the PDPPS and BCF, which results in a negative interaction parameter (χ). A modified Flory-Huggins model was used to determine the predicted phase behavior for a ternary system composed of a polymer, a solvent, and a small molecule. The model indicates that there is a demixing region (i.e., macrophase separation) when the polymer and small molecule have favorable interactions (e.g., χ < 0) and that the phase separation region coincides well with the experimentally determined two-phase region for mixtures containing PDPPS, BCF, and toluene. The work presented here highlights that Lewis adduct-induced phase separation is a new approach to functionalization-induced self-assembly (FISA) and that ternary mixtures will undergo phase separation if two of the components exhibit a sufficiently negative χ.

Abstract
We report on computational studies of the potential of three borane Lewis acids (LAs) (B(C6F5)3 (BCF), BF3, and BBr3) to form stable adducts and/or to generate positive polarons with three different semiconducting π-conjugated polymers (PFPT, PCPDTPT and PCPDTBT). Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations based on range-separated hybrid (RSH) functionals provide insight into changes in the electronic structure and optical properties upon adduct formation between LAs and the two polymers containing pyridine moieties, PFPT and PCPDTPT, unravelling the complex interplay between partial hybridization, charge transfer and changes in the polymer backbone conformation. We then assess the potential of BCF to induce p-doping in PCPDTBT, which does not contain pyridine groups, by computing the energetics of various reaction mechanisms proposed in the literature. We find that reaction of BCF(OH2) to form protonated PCPDTBT and [BCF(OH)]-, followed by electron transfer from a pristine to a protonated PCPDTBT chain is highly endergonic, and thus unlikely at low doping concentration. The theoretical and experimental data can, however, be reconciled if one considers the formation of [BCF(OH)BCF]- or [BCF(OH)(OH2)BCF]- counterions rather than [BCF(OH)]- and invokes subsequent reactions resulting in the elimination of H2.

Abstract
A set of two dodecaborate [B12(OR)12]1- radical cluster anions containing a dense layer of fluorinated end-groups provides nuclear spin hyperpolarization via the dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) technique. We show that these clusters can enhance 19F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals. Importantly, given the inherent radical delocalization in dodecaborate-based clusters, these species are compatible with reactive compounds such as Lewis acids, providing ∼1000-2000 times of signal enhancement for B(C6F5)3 in liquid state NMR spectroscopy experiments at 9.4 Tesla. This observation suggests that 3D aromatic radicals can provide advantages over the conventional radical species that are currently used for DNP such as 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO) by showing superior chemical compatibility. The ability to hyperpolarize reactive compounds using [B12(OR)12]1- cluster radicals opens up new applications of reaction monitoring by D-DNP NMR spectroscopy, including the observation of catalytically active species in complex reaction mixtures.

Abstract
The rare examples of B-H bond activation in a frustrated radical pair regime have been observed by treatment of TEMPO radicals with Piers' borane HB(C6F5)2 or bis-borane, respectively. The resulting concomitant formation of zwitterionic products and geminal N/B frustrated Lewis pairs implied a one electron process. In addition, the reaction of a TEMPO/B(C6F5)3 pair with H2O·B(C6F5)3 was assumed to involve one-electron reduction of water. Our results provide insights into chemical bond (e.g. B-H and O-H) activation via a single electron transfer.

Abstract
A new synthetic method for tricyclic laddersiloxanes, ladder-type silsesquioxanes with defined structures, is developed based on intramolecular cyclization of hydrosilyl-functionalized cyclic siloxanes. This method enables the construction of unprecedented laddersiloxanes with various ring sizes. Herein, the preparation of tricyclic laddersiloxanes containing 6-8-6-, 8-8-8-, or 12-8-12-membered-ring systems is reported. These products can be considered as bat-shape siloxanes, owing to their rigid inorganic siloxane body with flexible oligosiloxane "wings" as side rings. The synthesized compounds are potential building blocks for well-defined nanomaterials, porous materials, and host molecules.

Abstract
Nitro compounds are known to change reaction rates and kinetic concentration dependence of Brønsted-acid-catalyzed reactions. Yet, no mechanistic model exists to account for these observations. In this work, an atomistic model for the catalytically active form for an alcohol dehydroazidation reaction is presented, which is generated by DFT calculations and consists of an H-bonded aggregate of two molecules of Brønsted acid and two molecules of nitro compound. The computed O-H stretching frequencies for the aggregate indicate they are stronger acids than the individual acid molecules and serve as predictors for experimental reaction rates. By applying the model to a chemically diverse set of potential promoters, it was predicted and verified experimentally that sulfate esters induce a similar co-catalytic effect. The important implication is that Brønsted-acid catalysis must be viewed from a supramolecular perspective that accounts for not only the pKa of the acid and the bulk properties of a solvent, but also the weak interactions between all molecules in solution.

Abstract
In order to examine the possibility of Lewis acid-Lewis base (LA-LB) interactions between the boron atom of B(C6F5)2OH and the oxo groups ("yl" oxygen atoms) of uranyl β-diketonato complexes, we have measured the 1H, 11B, 17O, 19F NMR and IR spectra of toluene solutions containing β-diketonato complexes [UO2(acac)2DMSO or UO2(dfh)2DMSO, where acac = 2,4-pentanedionate, dfh = 1,1,1,2,2,6,6,7,7,7-decafluoroheptane-3,5-dionate, and DMSO = dimethyl sulfoxide] and B(C6F5)2OH. 11B and 17O NMR spectra of solutions containing UO2(dfh)2DMSO and B(C6F5)2OH showed no change in their chemical shifts regardless of the [B(C6F5)2OH]/[UO2(dfh)2DMSO] ratio. This indicates that there were no apparent interactions between B(C6F5)2OH and UO2(dfh)2DMSO. On the other hand, in the corresponding NMR spectra of solutions containing UO2(acac)2DMSO and B(C6F5)2OH, new signals were observed at a higher field than signals observed in the solutions containing only B(C6F5)2OH or UO2(acac)2DMSO, and their intensity changed with the [B(C6F5)2OH]/[UO2(acac)2DMSO] ratio. These results reveal that a complex with LA-LB interaction (B···O═U) between the boron atom of B(C6F5)2OH and the "yl" oxygen atom of UO2(acac)2DMSO was formed. IR spectra also supported such complex formation; i.e., the asymmetric O═U═O stretching band of UO2(acac)2DMSO was observed to shift from 897 to 810 cm-1 with the addition of B(C6F5)2OH. Moreover, 19F NMR spectra indicated that 1:1 and 2:1 LA-LB complexes exist in equilibrium, UO{OB(C6F5)2OH}(acac)2DMSO + B(C6F5)2OH = U{OB(C6F5)2OH}2(acac)2DMSO. The thermodynamic parameters for this equilibrium were obtained as K = (2.5 ± 0.6) × 102 M-1 (at 25 °C), ΔH = -42.4 ± 5.2 kJ mol-1, and ΔS = -96.7 ± 19.4 J K-1 mol-1. In 1H NMR spectra, the signal due to -CH groups of UO2(acac)2DMSO disappeared, and three signals due to the corresponding -CH groups newly appeared with an increase in the [B(C6F5)2OH]/[UO2(acac)2DMSO] ratio. From these phenomena, it is proposed that 1:1 and 2:1 LA-LB complexes having interactions between the -CH groups of acac and the -OH group of coordinated B(C6F5)2OH are formed depending on the [B(C6F5)2OH]/[UO2(acac)2DMSO] ratio.

Abstract
The utility of (C6F5)3B(OH2) as catalyst for the simple and environmentally benign synthesis of oligosiloxanes directly from hydrosilanes, is reported. This protocol offers several advantages compared to other methods of synthesizing siloxanes, such as mild reaction conditions, low catalyst loading, and a short reaction time with high yields and purity. The considerable H2O-tolerance of (C6F5)3B(OH2) promoted a catalytic route to disiloxanes which showed >99% conversion of three tertiary silanes, Et3SiH, PhMe2SiH, and Ph3SiH. Preliminary data on the synthesis of unsymmetrical disiloxanes (Si-O-Si') suggests that by modifying the reaction conditions and/or using a 1:1 combination of silane to silanol the cross-product can be favored. Intramolecular reactions of disilyl compounds with catalytic (C6F5)3B(OH2) led to the formation of novel bridged siloxanes, containing a Si-O-Si linkage within a cyclic structure, as the major product. Moreover, the reaction conditions enabled recovery and recycling of the catalyst. The catalyst was re-used 5 times and demonstrated excellent conversion for each substrate at 1.0 mol% catalyst loading. This seemingly simple reaction has a rather complicated mechanism. With the hydrosilane (R3SiH) as the sole starting material, the fate of the reaction largely depends on the creation of silanol (R3SiOH) from R3SiH as these two undergo dehydrocoupling to yield a disiloxane product. Generation of the silanol is based on a modified Piers-Rubinsztajn reaction. Once the silanol has been produced, the mechanism involves a series of competitive reactions with multiple catalytically relevant species involving water, silane, and silanol interacting with the Lewis acid and the favored reaction cycle depends on the concentration of various species in solution.

Abstract
Precise doping of organic semiconductors allows control over the conductivity of these materials, an essential parameter in electronic applications. Although Lewis acids have recently shown promise as dopants for solution-processed polymers, their doping mechanism is not yet fully understood. In this study, we found that B(C6F5)3 is a superior dopant to the other Lewis acids investigated (BF3, BBr3 and AlCl3). Experiments indicate that Lewis acid-base adduct formation with polymers inhibits the doping process. Electron-nuclear double-resonance and nuclear magnetic resonance experiments, together with density functional theory, show that p-type doping occurs by generation of a water-Lewis acid complex with substantial Brønsted acidity, followed by protonation of the polymer backbone and electron transfer from a neutral chain segment to a positively charged, protonated one. This study provides insight into a potential path for protonic acid doping and shows how trace levels of water can transform Lewis acids into powerful Brønsted acids.

Abstract
Improved methods to control silicone synthesis are required due to the sensitivity of siloxane bonds to acid/base-mediated chain redistribution/depolymerization. The Piers-Rubinsztajn reaction employs tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane as an efficient catalyst (<0.1 mol%) for siloxane bond formation from hydro- and alkoxysilanes - typical reactions proceed in open flasks at room temperature within minutes. While advantageous under ideal conditions, the boron catalyst activity may be affected by age, storage conditions and various environmental factors, particularly humidity. Under conditions of high humidity it may be necessary to apply heat and/or use increased catalyst loading in the reactions; there is often an induction time. We examine induction times in the Piers-Rubinsztajn reaction as a function of water concentrations in the reagent or catalyst solution and show that water in the reagent solution or atmosphere is less problematic than water found in the catalyst stock solution. A relatively linear increase in induction time accompanied higher water concentrations in the catalyst solution - no such effect was observed when the water was in the reagent solution. Reaction rates in both scenarios were similar, i.e., not affected by the induction time. Improvements in the stability of catalyst solutions were observed when B(C6F5)3 was stored in low molecular weight silicone oils, and pre-complexed with HSi(OSiMe3)3. These outcomes are ascribed to the ability of HSi groups to outcompete water in binding with B(C6F5)3 to initiate reaction, unless the boron is pre-complexed with water.

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 peroxido complexes trans-[M(4-C5F4N)(O2)(CNtBu)(PR3)2] (1: M = Rh, R = Et; 2a: M = Ir, R = iPr) can be used in the metal-mediated hydrogenation of O2. The reaction of trans-[Rh(4-C5F4N)(O2)(CNtBu)(PEt3)2] (1) with B(C6F5)3 and H2 gave trans-[Rh(4-C5F4N)(CNtBu)(PEt3)2] (3), OPEt3 and (H2O)·B(C6F5)3, whereas treatment of [H(OEt2)2][B{3,5-(CF3)2C6H3}4] with 1 in the presence of H2 yielded trans-[Rh(4-C5F4N)(CNtBu)(PEt3)2] (3) and H2O2. The reactivity of 2a towards B(C6F5)3 and BClCy2 was also studied and an intermediate was detected which is assigned to be trans-[Ir(4-C5F4N)(Cl)(OOBCy2)(CNtBu)(PiPr3)2] (4a).

Abstract
A catalytic, metal-free O-H bond insertion of α-diazoesters in water in the presence of B(C6F5)3· nH2O (2 mol %) was developed, affording a series of α-hydroxyesters in good to excellent yields. The reaction features easy operation and wide substrate scope, and importantly, no metal is needed as compared with the conventional methods. Significantly, this approach further expands the applications of B(C6F5)3 under water-tolerant conditions.

Abstract
Applications of the bifunctional ferrocenediyl Lewis acid 1,1'-fc{B(C6F5)2}2 in frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) chemistry are described. The coordination (or otherwise) of a range of sterically encumbered C-, N- and P-centred Lewis bases has been investigated, with lutidine, tetramethylpiperidine, PPh3, PtBu3 and the expanded ring carbene 6Dipp being found to be sterically incapable of coordinate bond formation. The chemistry of a range of these FLPs in the presence of H2O, NH3, CO2 and cyclohexylisocyanate (CyNCO) has been investigated, with the patterns of reactivity identified including simple coordination chemistry, E-H bond cleavage and C-B insertion.

Abstract
Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, [B(C6F5)3], has been used as an efficient catalyst in the guanylation reaction of amines with carbodiimide under mild conditions. A combined approach involving NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations was employed to gain a better insight into the mechanistic features of this process. The results allowed us to propose a new Lewis acid-assisted Brønsted acidic pathway for the guanylation reaction. The process starts with the interaction of tris(pentafluorphenyl)borane and the amine to form the corresponding adduct, [(C6F5)3B-NRH2] , followed by a straightforward proton transfer to one of the nitrogen atoms of the carbodiimide, (i)PrN[double bond, length as m-dash]C[double bond, length as m-dash]N(i)Pr, to produce, in two consequent steps, a guanidine-borane adduct, [(C6F5)3B-NRC(N(i)PrH)2] . The rupture of this adduct liberates the guanidine product RNC(N(i)PrH)2 and interaction with additional amine restarts the catalytic cycle. DFT studies have been carried out in order to study the thermodynamic characteristics of the proposed pathway. Significant borane adducts with amines and guanidines have been isolated and characterized by multinuclear NMR in order to study the N-B interaction and to propose the existence of possible Frustrated Lewis Pairs. Additionally, the molecular structures of significant components of the catalytic cycle, namely 4-tert-butylaniline-[B(C6F5)3] adduct and both free and [B(C6F5)3]-bonded 1-(phenyl)-2,3-diisopropylguanidine, and respectively, have been established by X-ray diffraction.
