Intramolecular frustrated lewis pairs: formation and chemical features.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intramolecular vicinal and geminal frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) featuring bulky substituents at phosphorus or nitrogen and strongly electron-withdrawing bulky pentafluorophenyl substituents at boron undergo a variety of addition and/or activation reactions with small molecules. A number of examples of such reactions are presented and discussed, among them the FLP activation of dihydrogen to give zwitterionic phosphonium (or ammonium)/hydridoborate zwitterions. Intramolecular FLPs also add to organic carbonyl compounds (including carbon dioxide), to alkenes and alkynes (including conjugated dienes, diynes or enynes), to heterocumulenes, to azides, and to nitric oxide.

Are intramolecular frustrated Lewis pairs also intramolecular catalysts? A theoretical study on H2 activation.
We investigate computationally a series of intramolecular frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs), with the general formula Mes2PCHRCH2B(C6F5)2, that are known from the literature to either activate molecular hydrogen (FLPs with R = H (1) or Me (4)), or remain inert (FLPs with R = Ph (2) or SiMe3 (3)). The prototypical system Mes2PCH2CH2B(C6F5)2 (1) has been described in the literature (Grimme et al., An...
متن کاملNew insights into frustrated Lewis pairs: structural investigations of intramolecular phosphane-borane adducts by using modern solid-state NMR techniques and DFT calculations.
Covalent bonding interactions between the Lewis acid and Lewis base functionalities have been probed in a series of "frustrated Lewis pairs" (FLPs) (mainly substituted vinylene linked intramolecular phosphane-borane adducts), using solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance techniques and accompanying DFT calculations. Both the (11)B NMR isotropic chemical shifts and nuclear electric quadrupolar co...
متن کاملIntramolecular B/N frustrated Lewis pairs and the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide.
The FLP species 1-BR2-2-NMe2-C6H4 (R = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2, 2,4,5-Me3C6H2) reacts with H2 in sequential hydrogen activation and protodeborylation reactions to give (1-BH2-2-NMe2-C6H4)2. While reacts with H2/CO2 to give formyl, acetal and methoxy-derivatives, reacts with H2/CO2 to give C6H4(NMe2)(B(2,4,5-Me3C6H2)O)2CH2. The mechanism of CO2 reduction is considered.

A vicinal ethylene bridged S/B frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) in situ generated by a hydroboration reaction of phenyl vinyl sulfide, reacts with p-tert-butylphenylacetylene by ethene/alkyne exchange and subsequent 1,2-addition of a second alkyne equivalent to give a zwitterionic sulfonium/borate product.
متن کاملPreorganized frustrated Lewis pairs.
Geminal frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) are expected to exhibit increased reactivity when the donor and acceptor sites are perfectly aligned. This is shown for reactions of the nonfluorinated FLP tBu(2)PCH(2)BPh(2) with H(2), CO(2), and isocyanates and supported computationally.
