Abstract
Virtually irreversible intramolecular C-H activations are deleterious for aza-carbenes. A picolyl-tethered cyclic(alkyl)(amino)carbene (CAAC) isomerizes into a donor-acceptor cyclopropane in this manner but restores the CAAC status by retro-C-H activation in the presence of trapping agents like Se or CuCl. The same DA cyclopropane is readily hydrolyzed to a pyrrolidin-2-ol that acts as another picoCAAC precursor by undergoing 1,1-dehydration in the presence of Se or CuCl. The chemistry is distinct from the N-heterocyclic carbene analogue throughout.

[PMID: 36478481 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202203206] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2022] [Revised: 12/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
An unprecedented family of three- and five-membered substituted anionic derivatives of parent pnictogenylboranes is herein reported. Reacting various combinations of the pnictogenylboranes H2 E'-BH2 -NMe3 (E'=P, As) with pnictogen-based nucleophiles MER1R2 (E=P, As; R1=H, R2=t Bu; R1=R2=Ph; M=Na, K) allows for the isolation of the unsymmetrical products [Na(18-crown-6)][H2 E'-BH2 -EHt Bu] (3: E=E'=P; 4: E=E'=As; 5: E=As, E'=P) and [M(C)][H2 E'-BH2 -EPh2 ] (7: E=E'=P, M=Na, C=18-crown-6; 8: E=E'=As; M=K, C=[2.2.2]cryptand; 9: E=P, E'=As, M=Na, C=[2.2.2]cryptand; 10: E=As, E'=P, M=K, C=[2.2.2]cryptand). [Na(18-crown-6)][H2 As-BH2 -t BuPH-BH3 ] (6) is only accessible by a different pathway, using t BuPH2 , BH3 ⋅ SMe2 and NaNH2 as starting materials. Additionally, the synthesis of symmetrical diphenyl-substituted compounds [M(18-crown-6)][Ph2 E-BH2 -EPh2 ] (11: E=P, M=Na; 12: E=As, M=K) is reported which can be regarded as isostructural inorganic, negatively charged analogs of dppm (1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) and dpam (1,1-bis(diphenylarsino)methane). Furthermore, an elongation of the pnictogen boron backbone in compounds 3, 7 and 9' (similar compound to 9, stabilized however by 18-crown-6), is attainable by reacting them with the pnictogenylboranes H2 E'-BH2 -NMe3 leading to corresponding five-membered chain-like compounds [Na(18-crown-6)][H2 E-BH2 -R1R2P-BH2 -E'H2 ] (E=E'=P, R1=H, R2=t Bu (13); E=E'=P, R1=R2=Ph (14); E=E'=As, R1=R2=Ph (15); E=P, E'=As, R1=R2=Ph (16)). Finally, the thermodynamics of the reaction pathways were evaluated by quantum chemical computations.

Abstract
Triphosphinoboranes activated the B-H bond in the BH3 molecule without any catalysts at room temperature. Hydroboration reactions led to boraphosphacyloalkanes with diverse structures. The outcomes of reactions depend on the size of the phosphanyl substituent on the boron atom of the parent triphosphinoborane, where derivatives of boraphosphacyclobutane and boraphosphacyclohexane were obtained. Furthermore, the precursor of triphosphinoboranes, namely bromodiphosphinoborane, also exhibited high reactivity towards H3B·SMe2, yielding bromo-substituted boraphosphacyclobutane. The obtained products were characterized by heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and elemental analysis.

Abstract
An amphiphilic block copolymer of polyphosphinoborane has been prepared by a mechanism-led strategy of the sequential catalytic dehydropolymerization of precursor monomers, H3 B ⋅ PRH2 (R=Ph, n-hexyl), using the simple pre-catalyst [Rh(Ph2 PCH2 CH2 PPh2 )2 ]Cl. Speciation, mechanism and polymer chain growth studies support a step-growth process where reversible chain transfer occurs, i.e. H3 B ⋅ PRH2 /oligomer/polymer can all coordinate with, and be activated by, the catalyst. Block copolymer [H2 BPPhH]110 -b-[H2 BP(n-hexyl)H]11 can be synthesized and self-assembles in solution to form either rod-like micelles or vesicles depending on solvent polarity.

Abstract
Stoichiometric reaction of phosphine-borane adducts RR'PH⋅BH3 (R=Ph, R'=H, Ph, Et, and R=R'=t Bu) with the strong acid HNTf2 (Tf=SO2 CF3 ) leads to H2 elimination and the formation of the triflimido derivatives, RR'PH⋅BH2 (NTf2 ). Subsequent deprotonation by using bases, such as diisopropylethylamine or the carbene IPr (IPr=N,N'-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene), led to the formation of P-mono- or -disubstituted polyphosphinoboranes [RR'P-BH2 ]n . Evidence for the intermediacy of transient phosphinoborane monomers, RR'PBH2 , was provided by trapping reactions.

Abstract
Herein we report secondary pyrrolidin‐2‐ols as a source of cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbenes (CAAC) for the synthesis of CAAC‐CuI‐complexes and cyclic thiones when reacted with CuI‐salts and elemental sulfur, respectively, under reductive elimination of water from the carbon(IV)‐center. This result demonstrates a convenient and facile access to CAAC‐based CuI‐salts, which are well known catalysts for different organic transformations. It further establishes secondary alcohols to be a viable source of carbenes—realizing after 185 years Dumas’ dream who tried to prepare the parent carbene (CH2) by 1,1‐dehydration of methanol. Addressed is also the reactivity of water towards CAACs, which proceeds through an oxidative addition of the O−H bond to the carbon(II)‐center. This emphasizes the ability of carbon‐compounds to mimic the reactivity of transition‐metal complexes: reversible oxidative addition and reductive elimination of the O−H bond to/from the C(II)/C(IV)‐centre.

Abstract
High molar weight polyphosphinoboranes represent materials with auspicious properties, but their preparation requires transition metal‐based catalysts. Here, calix[4]pyrrolato aluminate is shown to induce the dehydropolymerization of phosphine boranes to high molar mass polyphosphinoboranes (up to Mn=43 000 Da). Combined GPC and 31P DOSY NMR spectroscopic analyses, quantum chemical computations, and stoichiometric reactions disclose a P−H bond activation by the cooperative action of the square‐planar aluminate and the electron‐rich ligand framework. This first transition metal‐free catalyst for P−B dehydrocoupling overcomes the problem of residual d‐block metal impurities in the resulting polymers that might interfere with the reproducibility of the properties for this emerging class of inorganic materials.

Abstract
Isolation of cyclic (alkyl) amino carbenes (cAACs) in 2005 has been a major achievement in the field of stable carbenes due to their better electronic properties. cAACs and bicyclic(alkyl)(amino)carbene (BicAAC) in essence are the most electrophilic as well as nucleophilic carbenes are known till date. Due to their excellent electronic properties in terms of nucleophilic and electrophilic character, cAACs have been utilized in different areas of chemistry, including stabilization of low valent main group and transition metal species, activation of small molecules, and catalysis. The applications of cAACs in catalysis have opened up new avenues of research in the field of cAAC chemistry. This review summarizes the major results of cAAC chemistry published until August 2021.

Abstract
Treatment of 3a,6a-diaza-1,4-diphosphapentalene (DDP) with an excess of PhBCl2 yields the corresponding bis(borane) adduct DDP(PhBCl2)2 (14), demonstrating the availability of two lone pairs on the phosphorus center. The reaction between DDP and B(C6F5)3 yields (1 : 1) phosphino-borane complex 16. The free lone electron pair on the pyramidal P atom in 16 participates in the intramolecular non-covalent interactions P(1)F(1) and P(1)F(6) giving additional 3.9 and 2.8 kcal mol-1, respectively, for stabilization of the complex. This through-space interaction appears in the 31P NMR spectrum as large spin-spin coupling constants of 271 and 219 Hz. The addition of water to 16 (1 : 1) leads to the formation of the insertion product 17 having -H2P-O-B(C6F5)3 moiety. The reaction of DDP with BH3·SMe2 proceeds in several stages, which include the insertion of the masked phosphinidene into the B-H and P-H bonds of the intermediate compounds followed by the dehydrocoupling step and formation of diphosphine 18. The last compound exists in solution as a set of stereoisomers.

Abstract
In this paper, we highlight the synthesis of a variety of primary phosphine-boranes (RPH2 ⋅BH3 ) from the corresponding dichlorophosphines, simply by using Li[BH4 ] as reductant and provider of the BH3 protecting group. The method offers facile access not only to alkyl- and arylphosphine-boranes, but also to aminophosphine-boranes (R2 NPH2 ⋅BH3 ) that are convenient building blocks but without the protecting BH3 moiety thermally labile and notoriously difficult to handle. The borane-protected primary phosphines can be doubly deprotonated using n-butyllithium to provide soluble phosphanediides Li2 [RP⋅BH3 ] of which the phenyl-derivative Li2 [PhP⋅BH3 ] was structurally characterized in the solid state.

Abstract
Catalytic dehydropolymerization of halogen-functionalized phosphine-boranes (4-X-C6 H4 )PH2 ⋅BH3 (1a: X = Br, 1b: X = I) with [CpFe(CO)2 (OTf)] at 100 °C provides convenient access to halogen-functionalized polyphosphinoboranes [(4-X-C6 H4 )PH-BH2 ]n (2a: X = Br, 2b: X = I). These polymers are useful precursors for post-polymerization functionalization, which is demonstrated by Sonogashira coupling under mild conditions to yield the alkynyl-functionalized polyphosphinoborane [(4-PhCC-C6 H4 )PH-BH2 ]n (3).

Abstract
Polymers with a phosphorus-boron main chain have attracted interest as novel inorganic materials with potentially useful properties since the 1950s. Although examples have recently been shown to be accessible via several routes, the materials reported so far have been limited to P-mono(organosubstituted) materials, [RHPBH2] n , containing P-H groups. Here we report a general route for the post-polymerisation modification of such polyphosphinoboranes giving access to a large range of previously unknown examples featuring P-disubstituted units. Insertion of alkenes, R'CH[double bond, length as m-dash]CH2 into the P-H bonds of poly(phenylphosphinoborane), [PhHPBH2] n was facilitated by irradiation under UV light in the presence of the photoinitiator 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (DMPAP) and (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl (TEMPO) under benchtop conditions giving high molar mass, air-stable polymers [PhR'PBH2] n with controlled functionalisation and tunable material properties. The mechanistic explanation for the favourable effect of the addition of TEMPO was also investigated and was proposed to be a consequence of reversible binding to radical species formed from the photolysis of DMPAP. This new methodology was also extended to the formation of crosslinked gels and to water-soluble bottlebrush copolymers showcasing applicability to form a wide range of polyphosphinoborane-based soft materials with tunable properties.
