Oxidation, Coordination, and Nickel-Mediated Deconstruction of a Highly Electron-Rich Diboron Analogue of 1,3,5-Hexatriene.


ABSTRACT: The reductive coupling of an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) stabilized (dibromo)vinylborane yields a 1,2-divinyldiborene, which, although isoelectronic to a 1,3,5-triene, displays no extended ? conjugation because of twisting of the C2 B2 C2 chain. While this divinyldiborene coordinates to copper(I) and platinum(0) in an ?2 -B2 and ?4 -C2 B2 fashion, respectively, it undergoes a complex rearrangement to an ?4 -1,3-diborete upon complexation with nickel(0).

The reductive coupling of an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) stabilized (dibromo)vinylborane yields a 1,2-divinyldiborene, which, although isoelectronic to a 1,3,5-triene, displays no extended π conjugation because of twisting of the C<sub>2</sub> B<sub>2</sub> C<sub>2</sub> chain. While this divinyldiborene coordinates to copper(I) and platinum(0) in an η<sup>2</sup> -B<sub>2</sub> and η<sup>4</sup> -C<sub>2</sub> B<sub>2</sub> fashion, respectively, it undergoes a complex rearrangement to an η<su  ...[more]
