“…The most common is the N - N -chelation coordination mode favored by the anti-( E , E ) form [ 6 , 13 , 14 ], but the coordination of these ligands via oxygen atoms from oximic groups is also known [ 15 , 16 ]. vic-Dioximes can form coordination compounds in molecular [ 17 , 18 ], monodeprotonated [ 19 – 22 ] and bis-deprotonated [ 23 ] forms. In the coordinated state the intramolecular hydrogen bonds between the oxime anions can be replaced with boron compounds (BF 2 + , BF 2+ , B(C 6 H 5 ) 2 + , B(OH) 2 + ), thus, encapsulating the respective compounds [ 24 – 27 ].…”
