Redox Chemistry of a Hydroxyphenyl-Substituted Borane Angewandte Chemie International Edition  by Po-Yeng Feng, Yi-Hung Liu, Tien-Sung Lin, Shie-Ming Peng, Ching-Wen Chiu  /   22h   //   keep unread   //   hide   //   preview Abstract Chemical reduction of a hydroxyphenyl-substituted borane triggers a sequential electron- and intramolecular hydrogen-atom-transfer process to afford a hydridoborate phenoxide dianion. On the other hand, hydrogen-atom abstraction of the borane leads to the isolation of a neutral borylated phenoxyl radical, which can be transformed to the corresponding benzoquinone borataalkene derivative by reduction with cobaltocene. A radical approach:  Chemical reduction of a hydroxyphenyl-substituted borane triggers a sequential electron- and hydrogen-atom-transfer process to afford a hydridoborate phenoxide dianion. Hydrogen-atom abstraction of the borane allows isolat...

Synopsis A tripodal ligand platform, tris(5-cycloiminopyrrol-2-ylmethyl)amine (H3[N(piCy)3]) is reported. The ability of the ligand to tautomerize to the amino azafulvene H3[N(afaCy)3] upon substrate addition is evident in the isolation of a series of iron(II) complexes. The combined data for the iron complexes establishes that each arm of the tripodal ligand can tautomerize independently, depending on electronic needs of the iron center and substrate coordination. Abstract A tripodal ligand platform, tris(5-cycloiminopyrrol-2-ylmethyl)amine (H 3 [N(pi...

Here we show that an iron complex with pendant amines in the diphosphine ligand cleaves hydrogen heterolytically. The product has a strong Fe-H⋅⋅⋅H-N dihydrogen bond. The structure was determine...
