摘要:
The carboxylic acids RCO2H [R = But a, Et b, 3,4,5-(MeO)3C6H2 c, 4-MeOC6H4 d, Ph e, 2,4,6-Me3C6H2 f, 2,6-Cl2C6H3 g, or 3,5-(CF3)2C6H3 h] were treated with triethylborane or with bis(9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane) to give the acyloxydiethylboranes 1a-1h and the 9-acyloxy-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes) 2a-2h, respectively. Compounds 1a-1h are largely unassociated in nonpolar solvents (B-11 NMR, IR spectroscopy). As pure liquids, or in the solid state, they form equilibrium mixtures of monomeric and associated (dimeric) molecules (IR spectroscopy). Compounds 2a-2f are completely associated as pure liquids and in the solid state, but only weakly associated in non-polar solvents. Based on the crystal structure of dimeric 2e, it is proposed that, when associated, derivatives of both 1 and 2 form cyclic dimers.
