Abstract
The existing catalyst/initiator systems and methodologies used for the synthesis of polymers can access only a few cyclic polymers composed entirely of a single monomer type, and the synthesis of such authentic cyclic polar vinyl polymers (acrylics) devoid of any foreign motifs remains a challenge. Here we report that a tethered B-P-B trifunctional, intramolecular frustrated Lewis pair catalyst enables the synthesis of an authentic cyclic acrylic polymer, cyclic poly(γ-methyl-α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone) (c-PMMBL), from the bio-based monomer MMBL. Detailed studies have revealed an initiation and propagation mechanism through pairwise monomer enchainment enabled by the cooperative and synergistic initiator/catalyst sites of the trifunctional catalyst. We propose that macrocyclic intermediates and transition states comprising two catalyst molecules are involved in the catalyst-regulated ring expansion and eventual cyclization, forming authentic c-PMMBL rings and concurrently regenerating the catalyst. The cyclic topology of the c-PMMBL polymers imparts an ~50 °C higher onset decomposition temperature and a much narrower degradation window compared with their linear counterparts of similar molecular weight and dispersity, while maintaining high chemical recyclability.

Abstract
The synthesis and reactivity of novel ferrocene tethered boramidinate frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs), capable of the sequential capture of small molecules, is reported. Reactions of 1,1'-dicarbodiimidoferrocenes with different boranes provides access to metallocene tethered FLPs. The reactivity of the boramidinate moieties can be tuned by the nature of the carbodiimido substituents (alkyl vs. aryl) and the borane used in the reduction (9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane [(C8H14)2BH]2vs. bis-pentafluorophenyl borane [(C6F5)2BH]2). The boramidinate FLP arms do not engage in intramolecular reactions, allowing for independent small molecule capture by each FLP. By careful synthetic control, sequential capture of different gaseous small molecules (CO2 and CO or CO2 and CNtBu) by the same bis(boramidinate)ferrocene molecule has been demonstrated.

Abstract
Attachment of a pair of P-stereogenic mesityl(alkynyl)phosphanyl groups at the 4- and 5-positions of a 9,9-dimethylxanthene framework gave mixtures of the respective rac- and meso-bisphosphanyl diastereoisomers. They slowly epimerized in a thermally induced reaction with Gibbs activation barriers of about 25 kcal mol-1 at room temperature (measured and DFT calculated). The reaction of the meso-mesityl(tert-butylethynyl)phosphanyl derivative with two molar equivalents of Piers' borane [HB(C6 F5 )2 ] led to the formation of the alkylidene-bridged geminal bisphosphane/borane-frustrated Lewis pair system. The compound was obtained enriched (>85 %) in the rac diastereoisomer. With a variety of bifunctional donor substrates, the rac-bis-P/B FLP formed macrocyclic compounds. They were all formally derived from meso-configurated diastereoisomers of the bisphosphanylxanthene backbone.

Abstract
We report two BNB‐type frustrated Lewis pairs which feature an acceptor‐donor‐acceptor functionalized cavity, and which differ in the nature of the B‐bound fluoroaryl group (C6F5 vs. C6H3(CF3)2‐3,5, Arf). These receptor systems are capable of capturing gaseous CO, and in the case of the ‐BArf2 system this can be shown to occur in reversible fashion at/above room temperature. For both systems, the binding event is accompanied by migration of one of the aryl substituents to the electrophilic carbon of the CO guest. Experiments utilizing an additional equivalent of PtBu3 allow the initially formed (non‐migrated) CO adduct to be identified and trapped (via demethylation), while also establishing the reversibility of the B‐to‐C migration process. When partnered with the slightly less Lewis acidic ‐BArf2 substituent, this reversibility allows for release of the captured carbon monoxide in the temperature range 40–70 °C, and the possibility for CO sensing, making use of the associated colourless to orange/red colour change.

Abstract
The Mes2 P-C≡C-SiMe3 alkyne reacts with the borane H2 B-Fmes by means of a rare 1,1-hydroboration reaction to give an unsaturated C2 -bridged frustrated P/B-H Lewis pair. Most of its reactions are determined by the presence of the B-H functionality at the FLP function and the activated connecting carbon-carbon double bond. It reduces carbon monoxide to the formyl stage. With nitriles it reacts in an extraordinary way: it undergoes a reaction sequence that eventually results in the formation of a P-substituted dihydro-1,2-azaborole derivative. Several similar examples were found. In one case a P-ylide was isolated that was related to an intermediate of the reaction sequence. It subsequently opened in an alternative way to give an alkenyl borane product.

Abstract
The reaction of 2,4,6-tri(tert-butyl)phenyl vinyl phosphane with Piers' borane [HB(C6F5)2] gave the ethylene-bridged PH/B frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) system. It is a monomer at high temperature (>323 K), but exists as an associated 12-membered macrocyclic trimer below 273 K. The PH/B FLP splits dihydrogen and serves as a metal-free hydrogenation catalyst. It adds carbon dioxide. It serves as a PH/B template for the reduction of carbon monoxide by the HB(C6F5)2 borane to the formyl stage. The resulting six membered P/B/O containing heterocycle is opened upon treatment with pyridine and it reacts with benzaldehyde in a boron mediated Claisen-Tishchenko reaction.

Abstract
Intramolecular vicinal Frustrated Lewis Pairs (FLPs) have played a significant role in the activation of small molecules, and their stabilities and reactivities are found to strongly depend on the nature of the bridging units. This work reports a new carborane based FLP, 1-PPh2-2-BPh2-1,2-C2B10H10 (2), which reacts with an equimolar amount of p-R2NC6H4C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CH (R = Me, Et, Ph) at room temperature to give C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C triple bond addition products 1,2-[PPh2C(R2NC6H4)[double bond, length as m-dash]CHBPh2]-1,2-C2B10H10 (3) in high yields. Compounds 3 react further with two equiv. of p-R2NC6H4C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CH (R = Me, Et) at 60-70 °C to give unprecedented stereoselective tri-insertion products, 3,3a,6,6a-tetrahydronaphtho[1,8a-b]borole tricycles (4), in which one of the aryl rings from arylacetylene moieties has been dearomatized with the formation of four stereocenters including one quaternary carbon center. It is noted that the phosphine unit functions as a catalyst during the reactions. After trapping and structural characterization of a key intermediate, a reaction mechanism is proposed, involving sequential alkyne insertion and 1,2-boryl migration.

Abstract
Modern solid-state NMR techniques offer a wide range of opportunities for the structural characterization of frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs), their aggregates, and the products of cooperative addition reactions at their two Lewis centers. This information is extremely valuable for materials that elude structural characterization by X-ray diffraction because of their nanocrystalline or amorphous character, (pseudo-)polymorphism, or other types of disordering phenomena inherent in the solid state. Aside from simple chemical shift measurements using single-pulse or cross-polarization/magic-angle spinning NMR detection techniques, the availability of advanced multidimensional and double-resonance NMR methods greatly deepened the informational content of these experiments. In particular, methods quantifying the magnetic dipole-dipole interaction strengths and indirect spin-spin interactions prove useful for the measurement of intermolecular association, connectivity, assessment of FLP-ligand distributions, and the stereochemistry of adducts. The present review illustrates several important solid-state NMR methods with some insightful applications to open questions in FLP chemistry, with a particular focus on supramolecular associates.

Abstract
Treatment of 1,3,5-tris(trifluoromethyl)benzene with n-BuLi, followed by H3 B⋅SMe2 and subsequent hydride removal gave the (Fmes)BH2 reagent, which was isolated as a SMe2 stabilized monomer or a ligand free (μ-H)2 -bridged dimer. Reaction with Mes2 P(vinyl) gave the respective ethylene-bridged P/B(Fmes)H FLP. It reduced carbon monoxide to the formyl stage and carbon dioxide to the formaldehyde oxidation state. Most new compounds were characterized by X-ray diffraction.

Abstract
The study of main-group molecules that behave and react similarly to transition-metal (TM) complexes has attracted significant interest in recent decades. Most notably, the attractive idea of replacing the all-too-often rare and costly metals from catalysis has motivated efforts to develop main-group-element-mediated reactions. Main-group elements, however, lack the electronic flexibility of TM complexes that arises from combinations of empty and filled d orbitals and that seem ideally suited to bind and activate many substrates. In this review, we look at boron, an element that despite its nonmetal nature, low atomic weight, and relative redox staticity has achieved great milestones in terms of TM-like reactivity. We show how in interelement cooperative systems, diboron molecules, and hypovalent complexes the fifth element can acquire a truly metallomimetic character. As we discuss, this character is powerfully demonstrated by the reactivity of boron-based molecules with H2, CO, alkynes, alkenes and even with N2.

Abstract
A new six-membered cyclic frustrated phosphane/borane Lewis pair was liberated from its HB(C6 F5 )2 adduct by treatment with vinylcyclohexane. The system is an active frustrated Lewis pair that undergoes cycloaddition reactions with suitable π reagents and it splits dihydrogen. At room temperature in solution the new compound is a monomer, however, in the crystal and in solution at low temperature it aggregates to a thermodynamically favoured supramolecular macrocyclic cyclooctamer.
