The C-F bond activation of fluoropyridines by [Rh(SiPh3) (PMe3)3] afforded Rh(i) fluoropyridyl complexes of the type [Rh(ArF)(PMe3)3] with concomitant formation of fluorotriphenylsilane; subsequent treatment with bis-catecholatodiboron yielded fac-[Rh(Bcat)3(PMe3) 3] and the free fluoropyridyl boronate esters (ArFBcat).

The impact of substituent changes on phosphorus and boron-containing frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) has been examined. The phosphites (RO) 3P R = Me, Ph form classical Lewis acid-base adducts of the formula (RO)3PB(C6F5)3 R = Me 1; R = Ph 2, whereas P(O-2,4-tBu2C6H3) 3 and P(O-2,6-Me2C6H3)3 generate FLPs. Nonetheless, these latter combinations do not react with H 2. The more basic phosphinite tBu2POR, R = tBu 3 reacts with B(C6F5)3 to give (tBu2(H)PO) B(C6F5)36. The related species tBu 2POR, R = Ph 4; 2,6-Me2C6H35 showed no reaction with B(C6F5)3 but the FLPs react under H2 (4 atm) to give [tBu2P(OR)H][HB(C 6F5)3] R = Ph 7 and 2,6-Me2C 6H38. Similarly, tBu2PCl in combination with B(C6F5)3, generates an FLP that upon addition of H2, gives [tBu2PH2][ClB(C6F 5)3] 9 albeit in low yield. The diborane 1,4-(C 6F5)2B(C6F4)B(C 6F5)2 in combination with either tBu 3P or (C6H2Me3)3P generates FLPs that react with H2 to give [R3PH] 2[1,4-(C6F5)2HB(C6F 4)BH(C6F5)2] (R = tBu 11, C 6H2Me312). Similarly PhB(C6F 5)2 and tBu3P react with H2 giving [tBu3PH][HBPh(C6F5)2] 13. The combination of B(OC6F5)3 and PtBu3 also generate an FLP which reacts with H2 to give [HPtBu 3][B(OC6F5)4] 14, the product of substituent redistribution. The boronic esters, (C6H 4O2)BC6F515, (C6H 3FO2)BC6F516 and (C 6F4O2)BC6F517, and the borate esters B(OC6H3(CF3)2) 318, B(OC6H2F3)319 and B(OC6H4CF3)320 were prepared and shown to generate FLPs with tBu3P or (C6H 2Me3)3P. Nonetheless, no reaction with H 2 was observed for 15-17. Collectively these data suggest that there is a threshold of combined Lewis acidity and basicity that is required to effect the splitting of H2.
Chelate restrained boron cations for intermolecular electrophilic arene borylation
Del Grosso, Alessandro,Pritchard, Robin G.,Muryn, Chris A.,Ingleson, Michael J.
, p. 241 - 249 (2010/04/04)
Highly electrophilic boron species that borylate arenes are generated by halide abstraction from CatBX (Cat = catecholato, C6H 4O22-, X = Cl or Br) by [Et3Si] [CbBr6] (CbBr6 = [closo-1-H-CB11H 5Br6]-). A transient [CatB][CbBr6] related species reacts as a synthetic equivalent of [CatB]+ in intermolecular electrophilic borylation, with reactions proceeding rapidly at 25 °C. The [CatB]+ moiety was shown to be strongly Lewis acidic on the basis of 1H and 31P{1H} NMR spectroscopy of the crotonaldehyde and triethylphosphine oxide adducts, respectively. Catalytic quantities of [Et3Si][CbBr6] and CatBX were effective for the high-yielding borylation of arenes by CatBH in a highly atom efficient cycle with H2 the only byproduct. Successful catalysis was dependent on the robust [CbBr6]- anion and the use of electrophile-resistant borane sources
