A quantitative Lewis acidity/basicity scale toward boron-centered Lewis acids has been developed based on a set of 90 experimental equilibrium constants for the reactions of triarylboranes with various O-, N-, S-, and P-centered Lewis bases in dichloromethane at 20 °C. Analysis with the linear free energy relationship log KB=LAB+LBB allows equilibrium constants, KB, to be calculated for any type of borane/Lewis base combination through the sum of two descriptors, one for Lewis acidity (LAB) and one for Lewis basicity (LBB). The resulting Lewis acidity/basicity scale is independent of fixed reference acids/bases and valid for various types of trivalent boron-centered Lewis acids. It is demonstrated that the newly developed Lewis acidity/basicity scale is easily extendable through linear relationships with quantum-chemically calculated or common physical–organic descriptors and known thermodynamic data (ΔH (Formula presented.)). Furthermore, this experimental platform can be utilized for the rational development of borane-catalyzed reactions.

The present invention provides novel boron compounds which are useful, depending on their characteristics, as light-emitting materials, electron-transport materials, electron-injection materials, hole-blocking materials, or organic semiconductor materials, and which have new molecular structures quite different from those of the heretofore known boron compounds; their production processes; and functional electronic devices using the same. The novel boron compounds are, for example, those of the following formula (1): These boron compounds can be produced by, for example, reacting boron compounds of the following formula (4): with compounds of the following formula (5): in the presence of a catalyst containing at least one metal element selected from the group consisting of palladium, platinum, and nickel. These boron compounds are used for the functional electronic devices.
