Article Synopsis
- A study focused on creating disubstituted carboxonium derivatives of the -decaborate anion [2,6-BHOCCH] was conducted, proposing a method involving the reaction of [BH] with benzoic acid.
- The synthesis occurs through a two-step process, starting with a mono-substituted product, but a quicker one-step method is also suggested.
- The structure of the resulting tetrabutylammonium salts was confirmed using X-ray analysis, and the reaction mechanism was explored with DFT calculations, revealing the importance of intermediate anionic species and the regioselectivity for the 2,6-isomer.
The process of protonation of [2,6-BHOCCH] was investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The most suitable conditions for protonation of the derivative [2,6-BHOCCH] were found. The process of protonation was carried out in the presence of an excess of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid CFSOH at room temperature in dichloromethane solution.
