The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

B-Chlorocatecholborane undergoes oxidative addition to M(PR 3)3Cl (M = Rh, R = Me; M = Ir, R = Me, Et) yielding six-coordinate complexes of general formula mer,cis-(PR3) 3Cl2M(BO2C6H4). The same M(PR3)3Cl complexes also react with B-bromocatecholborane to give a mixture of metal boryl homo- and heterodihalides (PR3) 3X1X2M(BO2C6H 4) (X1, X2 = Cl, Br), and the observed disproportionation is believed to involve the formation of a heteronuclear halide-bridged intermediate. The alkene 4-vinylanisole failed to react with the six-coordinate, 18-electron (PR3)3Cl2M(BO 2C6H4) complexes at ambient temperatures. © 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
