Catalytic hydroboration of carbonyl compounds and pyridine derivatives with the NHC-parent silyliumylidene cation

Abstract

Li initiated the feasibility of substrate scopes in the catalysis.  I performed the catalytic hydroboration of carbonyl compounds and pyridines.  B.-X. Leong executed the hydroboration of CO2, mechanistic studies, the synthesis of the NHC-parent silyliumylidene cation and shortening of reaction time.
