The Dewar Isomer of 1,2-Dihydro-1,2-azaborinines: Isolation, Fragmentation, and Energy Storage.


ABSTRACT: The photochemistry of 1,2-dihydro-1,2-azaborinine derivatives was studied under matrix isolation conditions and in solution. Photoisomerization occurs exclusively to the Dewar valence isomers upon irradiation with UV light (>280?nm) with high quantum yield (46?%). Further photolysis with UV light (254?nm) results in the formation of cyclobutadiene and an iminoborane derivative. The thermal electrocyclic ring-opening reaction of the Dewar valence isomer back to the 1,2-dihydro-1-tert-butyldimethylsilyl-2-mesityl-1,2-azaborinine has an activation barrier of (27.0±1.2)?kcal?mol-1 . In the presence of the Wilkinson catalyst, the ring opening occurs rapidly and exothermically (?H=(-48±1)?kcal?mol-1 ) at room temperature.
