Two novel hydrated borates were synthesized under mild solvothermal conditions. One is hydrated rubidium borate, Rb2B7O9(OH)5, which contains the first example of the isolated chain heptaborate anion, [B7O9(OH)5]2-. The other is hydrated diethylenetriamine borate, [(C4H15N3)]2[B14O20(OH)6], which contains the first example of the largest isolated ring tetradecaborate anion, [B14O20(OH)6]4-.

Kinetically controlled self-assembly is garnering increasing interest in the field of supramolecular polymers and materials, yet examples involving dynamic covalent exchange remain relatively unexplored. Here we report an unexpected dynamic covalent polymeric system whose aqueous self-assembly pathway is strongly influenced by the kinetics of evaporation of water. The key design is to integrate dual dynamic covalent bonds-including disulfide bonds and boroxine/borate-into a dynamic equilibrium system of monomers, polymers, and materials.

Non-centrosymmetric (NCS) compounds can exhibit many symmetry-dependent functional properties, yet their rational structure design remains a great challenge. Herein, a strategy to introduce F-centered octahedra to construct a perovskite-type framework filled by π-conjugated [BO] dimers is proposed to obtain NCS compounds. The first examples of antiperovskite or double antiperovskite borate fluorides, [(M/Ba)Ca]F[BO] (M = K, Rb) and [CsBaCa]F[BO], have been successfully designed and synthesized.

A novel straightforward synthetic route to monocyclic 1,3,2,4-diazadiborinines has been developed by the sequential reaction of the NHC-coordinated iminoborane with bases and haloboranes (or borate). The first examples of monocyclic 1,3,2,4-diazadiborinines featuring different functional groups on the two B atoms have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Further derivatization of 4-bromophenyl-substituted 1,3,2,4-diazadiborinine has also been achieved, giving the biphenyl-substituted 1,3,2,4-diazadiborinine.

Herein, a new fluorooxoborate α-KBOF is synthesized successfully in a closed system. It crystallizes in the 2/ space group and features the rare one-dimensional (1D) zigzag [BOF] chains built by fundamental building blocks (FBBs) [BOF]. To the best of our knowledge, KBOF is a unique example of inorganic anhydrous borate whose two polymorphs show 1D B-O/F chains constructed by different FBBs but the same symmetry operation.
