Published: December 2022

Diene comonomers bearing boronic acid masked with 1,8-diaminonaphthalene (dan) were applied to copolymerization with isoprene or butadiene using neodymium borohydride complex as a catalyst. The comonomers were tolerant to excess modified methylaluminoxane (MMAO) and thus were applicable to the polymerization system using MMAO. On the other hand, the corresponding pinacol borate was highly reactive toward MMAO, and no incorporation into the obtained polymer was observed. A C NMR microstructural analysis of the hydrogenated copolymer revealed that all of the comonomers were located at the chain end. Further functionalization using the boron moiety at the polymer chain end was also investigated.

A modular platform technology for the synthesis of α-aryl carbonyl derivatives via Borono-Catellani-type secondary alkylation of arenes is presented. This practical method features a broad substrate scope regarding aryl boronic acid catechol esters, secondary alkyl bromides, and diversified terminating reagents (e.g.

The synthesis, structure, and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) properties of axially chiral boron difluoride complexes are described. A series of optically pure bis (boron difluoride) complexes were prepared in 5 steps from commercially available (S)- or (R)-BINOL as starting materials. The complexes were found to exhibit similar yellow photoluminescence in solution, regardless of the type of substituents on the nitrogen atoms.

Although numerous transition-metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of alkenyl electrophiles with a sulfur(VI) leaving group, mainly alkenyl sulfones, have been developed, most rely heavily on highly nucleophilic Grignard reagents, and the use of organoboron reagents remains challenging. We report herein facile preparation and the following Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of alkenyl sulfoximine, a monoaza analog of sulfone. The condensation of alkyl sulfoximine with aldehydes, developed in this study, makes alkenyl sulfoximines more readily available.

In this work, a multicomponent polymerization (MCP) approach involving bipyrroles, sulfonyl azides, and diynes was developed to afford a library of poly(bipyrrole-sulfonylimide)s (PPSIs) in high yields and molecular weights, which were further modified to form unique sulfur dioxide (SO) generators. Bipyrroles served as carbon-based nucleophiles to undergo Cu-catalyzed C-C coupling during the MCP. Upon post-MCP modification by transforming the bipyrrole unit to boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) and the sulfonylimide moiety to sulfonamide, poly(BODIPY-sulfonamide)s (PBSAs) were obtained as potent anticancer therapeutic agents.

Ball bearings face numerous challenges under harsh operating conditions of elevated pressure between the balls and other contacting parts of the bearing like drop in tribological properties. To address these challenges, this paper presents the first successful experimental investigation of incorporating an innovative hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) into Aluminum-Carbon nanotube (Al-0.6 wt% CNTs) nanocomposites.
