Recently, a sub-class of boranes known as boroles – five-membered unsaturated boracycles – has begun to receive attention due to the interesting properties afforded by the anti-aromatic nature of these compounds. We synthesized and characterized a new class of boroles wherein the borole ring is fused to a benzene ring. These “boraindenes” were found to be highly Lewis acidic by the Gutmann- Beckett method, even more so than the ubiquitous tris-pentafluorophenylborane. Structural and computational evidence supports the notion that these compounds are anti-aromatic, which likely contributes to their Lewis acidity. A series of six derivatives was synthesized, and it was found that they had only marginally different absorption spectra. Previous work in our group showed that perproteo and perfluoro-pentaphenylboroles are capable of irreversibly activating dihydrogen. The mechanism of this reaction was investigated both experimentally and computationally, and it was found that the reaction was bimolecular in nature. Furthermore, the reaction involves the formation of a transient dihydrogen-borole adduct which quickly adds dihydrogen across the boron-carbon bond. A 1,2-hydride shift can lead to a cisoid product, and cleavage of the boron-carbon bond results in a ring-opened intermediate that ultimately rearranges to give the transoid product; independent synthesis of this ring-opened intermediate confirms that it does indeed give the transoid product. The most Lewis acidic of the boraindenes, perfluoro-1,2,3-triphenyl-1-boraindene, appears to react reversibly with dihydrogen gas. This compound has proven capable of ii mediating the hydrogenation of cyclohexene, though its precise role remains obscured in part due to the fact that it reacts with cyclohexene itself. Perfluoro-1,2,3-triphenyl-1-boraindene was found to reversibly form an adduct with triethylsilane in solution, an adduct that was also isolated in the solid state. The solution-phase equilibrium was characterized by a titration followed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, which revealed that the equilibrium is nearly thermoneutral at room temperature but favours adduct formation at lower temperatures. Infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis on solid samples confirm that the adduct is formed via a three-centre, two-electron silicon-hydrogen-boron bonding interaction. Perfluoro-1,2,3-triphenyl-1-boraindene was also found to be an active catalyst for the hydrosilation of olefins. iii Acknowledgements This doctoral thesis represents the culmination of five years of hard work, and I would be remiss were I not to acknowledge all those who aided me throughout this endeavour. First and foremost I would like to thank my supervisor Professor Warren Edward Piers, without whom none of this would have been possible. His keen insights and intense dedication are aspects I have tried to incorporate into myself, and working in his group has moulded me into the scientist that I am today. I would like to thank the members of my supervisory committee, Dr. Todd Sutherland and Dr. Thomas Baumgartner, for their additional support throughout my degree. I would also like to thank the other members of my examination committee, Dr. Peter Tieleman and Dr. T. Don Tilley, for taking the time to evaluate my thesis. Gratitude is extended to Dr. Roland Roesler and Dr. David Schriemer for serving on my candidacy committee. All the members of the Piers group, past and present, have helped me in some way or another, whether it be through showing me a new technique, discussing experiments or teaching me something new. I would like to thank Master Juan Felipe Araneda in particular, who has been a fellow boron chemist from the beginning, for his help, friendship, and aid in maintaining the air- and moisture- free working paradise that is the Boron Box. In addition to his help in the lab, Dr. Francis A. Leblanc introduced me to Crossfit and helped me get into some of the best shape in my life. I would also like to thank Dr. Tracy Griffin (Lohr), Dr. Rich Burford, Master Terry Chu, Dr. Lauren Mercier, Dr. Adam Marwitz, Dr. Andrey Khaliman, Dr. Dmitry Gutsulyak, Dr. Erin Leitao, Dr. Thomas Wood, Dr. Matt Sloan, Dr. Andreas Berkefeldt, Dr. Benedikt Neue and Dr. Cheng Fan. iv There are a number of people to whom I owe thanks for the development of my abilities as a crystallographer (if I can presume to call myself one). Dr. Masood Parvez taught me the principles of crystallography and showed me how to use the instruments, and I have received additional support from Doctors Javier Borau-Garcia, Jason Dutton, Michael Sgro, and Denis Spasyuk. The instrumentation staff at the University of Calgary provide and maintain the excellent facilities that make much of our work possible. Dr. Michelle Forgeron has done an excellent job of leading her team while also providing support to our lab during the move. Qiao Wu, Wade White, Dorothy Fox and Jian Jun Li have also been incredibly helpful and pleasant to work with. Additional support from around the department has been exemplary. Mark Toonen is a truly gifted and hard-working glassblower without whom I would likely be graduating much later. The machine shops and electrical shops have been instrumental in keeping our lab functioning, and I would like to thank them all for their efforts. Bonnie King and Janice Crawford have been a great help keeping me on track and aiding in scholarship applications, for which I am very grateful. My parents, Dean and Anne Houghton, have been unwaveringly loving and supportive throughout my entire life. My little sister Vanessa has been an excellent friend and confidante, of whom I am very proud. I am happy to have had them so close throughout this degree, for they have surely made it easier. My friends, both within and outside the department, have each certainly made things more fun and enjoyable than if they had been absent during this time in my life. Dustin Pearson kept me going to the gym in the mornings for two years and I am stronger because of it. I would v like especially to thank Ryan Bebb, Leah Kilvert and Mari Boesen. I would also like to offer a heartfelt thanks to the Burner community as a whole, for showing me just how rad life can be. vi Table of Contents Abstract............................................................................................................................... ii Acknowledgements............................................................................................................ iv Table of Contents.............................................................................................................. vii List of Tables ...................................................................................................................... x List of Figures.................................................................................................................. xiv List of Schemes.............................................................................................................. xviii List of Symbols, Abbreviations and Nomenclature......................................................... xxi List of Numbered Compounds in Chapters 1 and 2....................................................... xxvi List of Numbered Compounds in Chapters 3 and 4...................................................... xxvii List of Numbered Compounds in Chapter 5................................................................ xxviii List of Numbered Intermediates .................................................................................. xxviii CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION.........................................................................................................1 1.1 Lewis Acids and Bases ............................................................................................. 1 1.2 Lewis Acidity Scales ................................................................................................ 5 1.3 Applications of Boron Lewis Acids.......................................................................... 8 1.4 Boroles .................................................................................................................... 14 1.4.1 Aromaticity and Anti-aromaticity .................................................................

  • Sulfur Bonded Unsymmetrical Borole Complexes: Synthetic, Spectroscopic and Biocidal Aspects
    SULFUR BONDED UNSYMMETRICAL BOROLE COMPLEXES: SYNTHETIC, SPECTROSCOPIC AND BIOCIDAL ASPECTS Taruna Pandey1, V. P. Singh2 and R. V. Singh1* 1 Department of Chemistry, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur-302004, India 2 DSME, S.C.E.R.T., Varun Marg, Defence Colony, New Delhi-110024, India ABSTRACT Synthesis, characterization and biological activities of some of the unsymmetrical borole complexes containing B-S and B<-N bonds are described. The sulfur containing conjugated bases were prepared by the condensation of caibonyl compounds with thiosemicarbazide. The resulting complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, molecular weight determinations and spectral studies including IR, Ή NMR, "Β NMR and ,3C NMR. The spectroscopic results showed that the conjugated bases behave in a bidentate fashion, whereas, the complexes display a tetracoordinated environment around the boron atom as steriochemically active lone pair is also included in the coordinated sphere. The conjugated bases and their respective boron complexes have been screened for their antifungal and antibacterial properties. INTRODUCTION Recently, few references on bidentate ligands coordinated to boron through the azomethine nitrogen and the thiolo sulfur have been published in the literature1·2. These compounds are interesting in many respects. Some have got a number of applications in industry, biology and agriculture. Industrial applications of coordination compounds of boron have remained fairly limited. Boron analogues of carboxylic acids and peptides have been shown to possess interesting biological activities in particular as serine protease inhibitors3. Use of boron-nitrogen compound in neutron capture therapy of brain tumors have also been investigated4. Several organoboranes find promising applications in the synthesis of insect pheromones5.

Singh* Department of Chemistry, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur 302004, India. ABSTRACT Biochemical aspects, synthesis and characterization of some boron complexes of 2-hydroxy-N- phenylbenzamide (HOPhBenz) and its semicarbazone (HOPhBenz.SCZH) and thiosemicarbazone (HOPhBenz.TSCZH) are described. These derivatives were prepared by the reactions of 2-isopropoxy-4- methyl- 1,3,2-dioxaborolane, and 2-isopropoxy-4-methyl- 1,3,2-dioxaborinane with 2-hydroxy-N-phenyl- benzamide, 1-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)-l-N-phenylamino]hydrazinecarboxamide (HOPhBenz.SCZH), and 1-[(2- hydroxyphenyl)-l-N-phenylamino]hydrazinecarbothioamide(HOPhBenz.YSCZH) in a 1:1 molar ratio. In order to assess the increase of the inhibitor potency, (HOPhBenz), (HOPhBenz.SCZH), (HOPhBenz. TSCZH) and their boron complexes have been tested in vitro against a number of pathogenic fungi and bacteria at different concentrations and were found to possess remarkable fungicidal and bactericidal properties. The testicular sperm density, testicular sperm morphology, sperm motility, density of cauda epididymal spermatozoa and fertility in mating trials and biochemical parameters of reproductive organs are discussed. INTRODUCTION Boron chemistry has continued to provide the most novel developments in the field of coordination chemistry. Inorganic chemistry of boron is much more diverse and complex than that of any other element in the Periodic Table and this is due to the elucidation of tremendous range of bondin intractions. Several organoboranes find promising applications in the synthesis of insect pheromones'. Boron azomethine complexes of various ligands have been found to possess conspicuous biocidal activity2.

  • Planar Chiral Lewis Acids and Lewis Pairs Based On
    PLANAR CHIRAL LEWIS ACIDS AND LEWIS PAIRS BASED ON FERROCENE by JIAWEI CHEN A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Chemistry written under the guidance of Professor Frieder Jäkle and approved by Newark, New Jersey May, 2014 © 2014 Jiawei Chen ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION PLANAR CHIRAL LEWIS ACIDS AND LEWIS PAIRS BASED ON FERROCENE by Jiawei Chen Dissertation Advisor: Professor Frieder Jäkle Organoboranes have been widely used for catalytic transformations, polymerizations, small molecule activation, anion and glycol sensing and construction of electronic materials. These remarkable applications commonly benefit from the electron-deficient nature of tricoordinate boron, i.e., its empty p- orbital can accommodate a lone pair of electrons or participate in conjugation of extended π-systems. Therefore, approaches to enhance the Lewis acidity of the boron center are desirable, and different strategies have been introduced with this aim, including (1) installation of electron withdrawing pendant groups such as pentafluorophenyl groups; (2) generation of cationic borenium species and (3) incorporation of tricoordinate boron into anti-aromatic systems such as borole derivatives. Recently, much effort has been directed to the preparation of the so- called “Frustrated Lewis Pair” (FLP) and the application of their unquenched relativity for catalytic transformations. However, chiral versions of highly Lewis acidic organoboranes remain scarce. On the other hand, planar chiral ferrocenes have proven to provide rigid frameworks for transition metal ligands such as ii phosphines and amines, which have been successfully applied to the asymmetric hydrogenation of alkenes, ketones and other processes.

  • Unsymmetrical Borole Complexes of Monobasic Bidentate Benzothiazolines
    UNSYMMETRICAL BOROLE COMPLEXES OF MONOBASIC BIDENTATE BENZOTHIAZOLINES Taruna Pandey and R. V. Singh* Department of Chemistry, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur - 302004, India ABSTRACT The synthetic spectroscopic and biological studies of some unsymmetrical borole complexes derived from heterocyclic ketones and 2-mercaptoaniline have been characterized on the basis of elemental analysis molecular weight determinations and spectral studies including IR, !H NMR, 13C NMR and nB NMR. The equimolar reaction between unsymmetrical borole and these benzothiazolines have produced [B(C3H<;02) (N^S)] and [B^HgO^ (N°S)] type of boron complexes. The spectroscopic results show that the benzothiazolines behave in a monobasic bidentate fashion rendering the non-metal tetracoordinated. The benzothiazolines and their respective non-metal complexes have been screened for their antifungal and antibacterial properties. INTRODUCTION Boron and its compounds have attracted the attention of a large number of chemists mainly because of the tremendous range of structural peculiarities and subtle types of bonding. Boron shows an astonishing number of structural polymorphs. Further, the synthetic flexibility of boron, which has a wide range of 'applications in various disciplines, has attracted a number of investigators in the field. Arene boronic acids show antiserotonin activity1. The toxicity to mice of a number of triarylboranes and their amine complexes has been investigated2. Recently, interest has also been sustained in the structural aspects of compounds containing boron - nitrogen bonds3"7. Benzothiazolines, which are biologically very active, constitute an important class of nitrogen and sulphur donor ligands8"9. The inherent biological potential of sulphur donor ligands prompted us to prepare unsymmetrical borole complexes of benzothiazolines.
