Investigating Tetrel-Based Neutral Frustrated Lewis Pairs for Hydrogen Activation

Shubhajit Das

Tetrel Lewis acids are a prospective alternative to commonly employed neutral boranes in frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) chemistry. While cationic tetrylium Lewis acids, being isolobal and iso(valence)electronic, are a natural replacement to boranes, neutral t ...

Supramolecular polymers based on dative boron–nitrogen bonds

Kay Severin, Nicolas Luisier, Erin Sheepwash

Heteroditopic monomers containing an arylboronate ester and a dialkyl-4-aminopyridine group aggregate via dative boron–nitrogen bonds to give main chain supramolecular polymers. The degree of polymerization can be tuned by changing the electronic and steri ...

Covalent Capture of Nitrous Oxide by N-Heterocyclic Carbenes

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Matthew Wodrich, Euro Solari, Alexander Tskhovrebov

A good catch: N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) form stable adducts with nitrous oxide (N2O) under mild reaction conditions. The adducts display unique reactivity as evidenced by an alkylation reaction which leads to a rupture of the NN bond. ...

Dative boron–nitrogen bonds in structural supramolecular chemistry: multicomponent assembly of prismatic organic cages

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Kurt Schenk, Erin Sheepwash, Burçak Içli

The multicomponent reaction of diboronic acids with a catechol and a tripyridyl linker results in the formation trigonal prismatic cages. The cages feature six dative boron–nitrogen bonds as structure-directing elements. The size of the cages can be varied ...
