Reaction of the acyclic (diamino)carbene (ADC) :C(NiPr<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub> (<b>1</b>) with different dihaloboranes of the type RBX<sub>2</sub> (R = Mes, Dur; X = Cl, Br) smoothly afforded a novel class of ADC-stabilized borane adducts. For MesBBr<sub>2</sub> however, the reaction did not stop at the adduct level, but an uncommon rearrangement process occurred, which eventually resulted in the formation of a 5-membered boracycle after elimination of mesitylene. Chemical reduction of the ADC ...[more]
