Syntheses, structures, and spectroscopic studies of several new classes of compounds having boron-arsenic bonds
摘要:
Several new arsinoboranes, wherein boron and arsenic are three coordinate, have been prepared and characterized. They are analogous to B-N and B-P species in which p-p pi-bonding, involving the pnictide lone pair and the empty boron p-orbital, may occur. The main conclusion of these studies is that B-As pi-bonding, although inherently strong, is difficult to achieve because of the larger inversion barrier at arsenic. Nontheless, very electropositive or bulky substituents at arsenic reduce this barrier sufficiently to observe substantial B-As pi-interactions. The compounds studied include [PhB(Cl)As(t-Bu)2]2 (1), PhB{As(t-BU)212 (2), Cp*B(Cl)As(t-Bu)2 (3), (C20H30)BAs(t-Bu)2 (4), Mes2BAsPhLi(THF)3 (5), [Mes2BAsPh] [Li(TMEDA)2] (6), and Mes2BAs(Ph)SiMe3 (7) (Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl, TMEDA = N,N,N'N'-tetramethylenediamine, Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2). The species 5 and 6 have been reported in a preliminary note. All compounds were characterized by X-ray crystallography and H-1 NMR and B-11 NMR spectroscopy. In addition, 5 and 7 were characterized by variable-temperature H-1 NMR studies.
