Bor‐Radikalkationen durch Oxidation elektronenreicher Diborene

Abstract: Die Herstellung eines Phosphan-stabilisierten Diborens, Et 3 P·(Mes)B=B(Mes)·PEt 3 (4), durch Reduktion von Et 3 P·B 2 Me s 2 Br 2 mit KC 8 in Benzol ermçglichte erstmals eine detaillierte Untersuchung der elektronischen Eigenschaften der B = B-Bindung im Vergleich mit dem kürzlich beschriebenen NHC-stabilisierten Diboren IMe·(Dur)B = B(Dur)·IMe (1). Ein entscheidendes Merkmal dieser Spezies ist die Gegenwart ungewçhnlich elektronenreicher Borzentren. Cyclovoltammetrie, UV/Vis-Spektroskopie und DFT-Rechnungen … Show more

“…The inequivalency of the spin densities on the two boron atoms may come from the electronically unsymmetrical substitution of the two boron nuclei in 3 . This is in contrast to that the previously reported radical anion of diborane(4)16 and the radical cation of phosphine‐stabilized diborene17 have one‐electron π bond between the two boron atoms with same spin density. The calculated spin density of 3 (Figure 3 b) was consistent with the distinct spin distribution to two boron atoms (Mulliken spin density on boron atoms: 0.139 for Bpin, 0.830 for BMes 2 ) as judged by ESR spectroscopy.…”

“…On the other hand, examples of boron‐centered radical species are still limited, although many radical species possessing a 2nd‐period element as the radical center have been widely known for a long time 6. The examples of directly observed or isolated boron‐centered radical species include the radical anion of triarylborane,7 the radical anion of 1,8‐diborylnaphthalene or biphenyl with one‐electron σ‐bond,8 the neutral radical of boron‐containing heterocycle9 or oxyphenyl‐substituted borane,10 the neutral base‐stabilized boryl‐11 and borole12‐radical, the radical cation of borylene stabilized by two NHC ligands,13 the boryl‐substituted acridinyl14 or phenothiazinyl15 radical, the radical anion of diborane(4),16 and the radical cation of base‐stabilized diborene 17. The last two types of compounds have a one‐electron π bond between two boron atoms.…”

“…[9] The only 1,2-dialkyldiborene isolated to date remains the highly electron-rich [(I iPr )BiPr] 2 (I iPr =1,3-diisopropylimidazol-2-ylidene). [10] In contrast, phosphine-stabilized diborenes are currently only accessible startingf rom ap re-formed boron-boron bond. The two-electron reduction of 1,2-diaryl-1,2-dibromodiboranes(4), B 2 Br 2 Ar 2 (Ar=Mes, Dur,9 -anthryl) in the presence of two equivalents of PMe 3 or PEt 3 thus yieldedt he red-coloredb is(phosphino)d iborenes,[(R 3 P)BAr] 2 (R=Me, Et, Ar=Mes, Figure 1C;R =Me, Ar=9-anthryl).…”

“…[1] As ar esult, diborenes, unlike alkenes, are excellent reducinga gents, capable of acting as either i) four-electron reducinga gents towards elemental sulfur,b yf ully cleaving the B=Bd ouble bond and forming aB 2 S 3 heterocycle, [19] or ii)t woelectron reducing agentst owards the heaviere lemental chalcogens by forming three-membered B 2 Er ings (E=Se, Te ), [20] or even iii)o ne-electronr educing agents towards the tropylium cation and 1-mesityl-2,3,4,5-tetraphenylborole (MesBC 4 Ph 4 )t o form diborene radical cations. [10], [11] The substitution pattern of the diborene core plays as ignificant role in tuning this redox reactivity (Figure 2). Thus switching from PMe 3 to the better s-donor and slightly better p-acceptor I Me ,w hilst retaining mesityl or duryl anionic substituents, induces an increasei nt he energy of the HOMO concomitant with al oweringo ft he energy of the LUMO, thereby reducingt he HOMO-LUMO gap by around0 .8 eV.…”
