A series of hydroborated η-σ,π-alkene-borane complexes have been synthesized from the reaction of ruthenium-bis(σ)borate complex [Cp*Ru(μ-H)BH(S-CH═S)] () and terminal as well as internal alkynes. Likewise, the reactions of manganese-bis(σ)borate complexes [Mn(CO)(μ-H)BHNCSCH(NL)] (L = NCSCH or H) were explored with terminal alkynes that yielded boratabutadiene complexes [Mn(CO){(NCSCH)N}{(RMeC)═B(HC═CHR)}] [R = phenyl () or -tolyl ()] via triple hydroboration of alkynes. These complexes feature a boratabutadiene ligand that is coordinated to a metal through the η-CBCC mode. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first examples of η--boratabutadiene-coordinated manganese complexes generated by the -hydroboration of alkynes. The steric and electronic effects of the borate ligands have been demonstrated using a less sterically hindered manganese-bis(σ)borate complex, [Mn(CO)(μ-H)BH(HNCSCH)], that generated monohydroborated complexes [(CO)Mn(μ-H)(HNCSCH)B(RC═CHR)] (for , R = Ph and R = H; for , R = -Tol and R = H; for , R = R = Ph). Theoretical studies using density functional theory methods and chemical bonding analyses established the bonding and stability of these species.

Visible-Light-Mediated Radical -Hydroboration of Alkynes with NHC Borane.

J Org Chem

School of Pharmaceutical Science, Hengyang Medical School, University of South China, Hengyang 421001, Hunan, China.

Although the radical hydroboration of alkenes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) borane is well documented, the radical hydroboration of alkynes, especially terminal alkynes, remains challenging. Herein, a photoredox-catalyzed radical -hydroboration of alkynes with NHC borane has been developed, which provided various alkenyl boron compounds in moderate to good yields. This protocol exhibits a broad substrate scope, as both internal and terminal alkynes were compatible.

Location-Specific Microenvironment Modulation Around Single-Atom Metal Sites in Metal-Organic Frameworks for Boosting Catalysis.

Hefei National Research Center for Physical Sciences at the Microscale, Department of Chemistry, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, Anhui, 230026, P. R. China.

Despite coordination environment of catalytic metal sites has been recognized to be of great importance in single-atom catalysts (SACs), a significant challenge remains in the understanding how the location-specific microenvironment in the higher coordination sphere influences their catalysis. Herein, a series of Cu-based SACs, namely Cu/UiO-66-X (X=-NO, -H, and -NH), are successfully constructed by anchoring single Cu atoms onto the Zr-oxo clusters of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), i.e.

Atomically precise copper clusters with dual sites for highly chemoselective and efficient hydroboration.

Nat Commun

The hydroboration of alkynes into vinylboronate esters is a vital transformation, but achieving high chemoselectivity of targeted functional groups and an appreciable turnover number is a considerable challenge. Herein, we develop two dynamically regulating dual-catalytic-site copper clusters (CuNC and CuNC) bearing N-heterocyclic thione ligands that endow CuNC and CuNC catalysts with performance. In particular, the performance of microcrystalline CuNC in hydroboration is characterized by a high turnover number (77786), a high chemoselectivity, high recovery and reusability under mild conditions.

In this article, the synthesis of bis(phosphine), -PhPCHC(O)N(H)CHCHPPh- (1) (hereafter referred to as "PNHP" and its anionic form as "PNP") and its group 10 metal chemistry and catalytic studies are described. PNHP (1) on reaction with NiCl(DME) and PdCl(COD) afforded pincer complexes, [MCl{(PNP)κ-,,}] (M = Ni, 2; Pd, 3). A similar reaction of 1 with PtCl(COD) yielded a chelate complex, [PtCl{(PNHP)κ-,}] (4), which on further treatment with LiHMDS produced the 1,2-azaphospholene-phosphine complex, [PtCl(Ph){(-P(Ph)CHCONCHCHPPh-)κ-,}] (5) P-C/P-N bond metathesis.
