So far, in addition to halogen atoms, other non-metallic atoms can become part of the aromatic heterocycle, and the target ring system is still aromatic.Thiess, Torsten; Mellerup, Soren K.; Braunschweig, Holger researched the compound: 1,3-Bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazol-2-ylidene( cas:141556-42-5 ).Application of 141556-42-5.They published the article 《B-B Cleavage and Ring-Expansion of a 1,4,2,3-Diazadiborinine with N-Heterocyclic Carbenes》 about this compound( cas:141556-42-5 ) in Chemistry – A European Journal. Keywords: diazadiborinine boron bond cleavage ring expansion imidazolylidene carbene; crystal structure diazadiborinine imidazolylidene complex diazadiborepine derivative; mol structure diazadiborinine imidazolylidene complex diazadiborepine derivative; B,N-heterocycles; B−B bond activation; NHCs; diazadiborinines; ring-expansion reactions. We’ll tell you more about this compound (cas:141556-42-5).
A 1,4,2,3-diazadiborinine derivative forms Lewis adducts with strong two-electron donors such as N-heterocyclic and cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbenes. Depending on the donor, some of these Lewis pairs are thermally unstable, converting to sole B,N-embedded products upon gentle heating. The products of these reactions, which were fully characterized by NMR spectroscopy, elemental anal., and single-crystal x-ray diffraction, were identified as B,N-heterocycles with fused 1,5,2,4-diazadiborepine and 1,4,2-diazaborinine rings. Computational modeling of the reaction mechanism provides insight into the formation of these unique structures, suggesting that B-H, C-N, and B-B bond activation steps are responsible for these intercalation reactions between the 1,4,2,3-diazadiborinine and NHCs.
Different reactions of this compound(1,3-Bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazol-2-ylidene)Application of 141556-42-5 require different conditions, so the reaction conditions are very important.
