Internal B–O Bond-Facilitated Photoisomerization of Boranes: Ring Expansion Versus Oxyborane Elimination/Intramolecular Diels–Alder Addition

Abstract: Boron compounds (1–4) containing an internal B–O bond have been found to undergo facile multistructural transformations upon irradiation at 365 or 410 nm, generating rare 8-membered B,O-heterocycles (1c–4c). In addition, 2 and 3 also undergo an intramolecular Diels–Alder addition and oxyborane elimination concomitantly, via intermediates 2b/3b, producing 2d/3d. The pathways to isomer c and product d were found to be a thermal process and a photo process, respectively.

“…The B–O distance is 1.634(2) Å (Figure a). This value is significantly longer than those of the carbonyl-phenyl-supported borane analogues (1.60–1.62 Å), suggesting a rather weak B–O coordination in BO2 . Similar to the N∧C-chelate B­(naphthyl)­pyMes 2 analogue, this aldehyde-supported O∧C-chelate borane also adopts an asymmetric arrangement of the Mes groups.…”

“…Compared to benzothiazole and thiazole moieties, the less bulky carbonyl group enables the Ar unit to stay on this carbon and prohibits a further dearomatization reaction. Surprisingly, unlike the thermally stable naphthyl-pyridyl and carbonyl-phenyl chelated boron analogues, 21,27,29 BO1− BO4 exhibit not only photoresponse but also thermal reactivity. After heating at 60 °C for a period of time, all of the compounds quantitatively converted to identical isomerized products to those obtained via a photochemical pathway as evidenced by their NMR and HRMS characterization data (see the SI).…”
