Dembitsky, Hijazi Abu Ali and Morris Srebnik* Department of Medicinal Chemistry & Natural Products, School of Pharmacy, PO Box 12065, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem 91120, Israel Received 18 November 2002; Revised 27 November 2002; Accepted 13 January 2003 An overview of the development of new strategies in organic synthesis with a minimum of chemical steps is becoming increasingly necessary for the efficient assembly of complex molecular structures. Therefore, the combination of multiple reactions in a single operation represents a particularly efficient approach. Among these strategies, the synthesis and reactivity of bisdiboranes has never been reviewed although its popularity for the synthesis of complex architectural molecules has been steadily increasing during the last decade. This review is intended to highlight the use of partly geminated boranes (B–C–B), and also bisdiborane reagents (B–C–C–B, B–C C–B, B–C C–B). Copyright 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Lithium Triethylborohydride as an Exceptionally Powerful and Selective Reducing Agent in Organic Synthesis. Exploration of the Reactions with Selected Organic Compounds Containing Representative Functional Groups1r2 Herbert C. Brown,* S. C. Kim,3 and S. Krishnamurthy Richard B. Wetherill Laboratory, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907 Received July 2, 1979 The approximate rates, stoichiometry, and products of the reaction of lithium triethylborohydride (LiEt,BH) with selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups under standard conditions (tet- rahydrofuran, 0 "C)were examined in order to explore the reducing characteristics of this reagent and to establish the utility of the reagent as a selective reducing agent. Primary and secondary alcohols, phenols, and thiols evolve hydrogen rapidly and quantitatively, whereas the reaction with 3-ethyl-3-pentanol is slow. n-Hexylamine is inert to this reagent. Aldehydes and ketones are reduced rapidly and quantitatively to the corresponding alcohols. Even the highly hindered ketone 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-pentanoneis reduced within 30 min. The stereoselectivities achieved with this reagent in the reduction of mono- and bicyclic ketones are better than those realized with lithium aluminum hydride, lithium alkoxyaluminohydrides and lithium borohydride; thus norcamphor is reduced to 1% ezo- and 99% endo-2-norbornanol. The reagent rapidly reduces cinnamaldehyde to the cinnamyl alcohol stage, with further addition to the double bond being sluggish. Anthraquinone is cleanly reduced to 9,lO-di- hydro-9,lO-dihydroxyanthracene.The diol was isolated in 77% yield. Carboxylic acids evolve hydrogen rapidly and quantitatively (1 equiv); further reduction is very slow.

The number of branches in silk fibroin is 1.3, whereas the number in collagen, gelatin, ovalbumin and wool are 0.1, 0.04, 0.02 and 0.03, respectively. The number of grafted-PMMA branches in synthetic poly-L-peptides is approximately 10-fold less than that in gelatin, and decline, in the order poly-Ala > poly-Ser > poly-Pro > poly-Glu > poly-Lys. By contrast, poly-Gly, poly-Tyr and poly-Leu have no branches. The co-catalytic effect (the ratio of the number of polymer formed relative to that of control) of amino acids on tri-n-butylborane-initiated polymerization of MMA in the presence of water has been linearly correlated with their 2 ionization potential (IPkoopman); |Äå HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital)| (r = 0.6, outliers: Cys and His); Äå HOMO = [åHOMOaqua − åHOMOvacuum] calculated using the semiempirical AM1 method.

  • Preparation and Lewis Acid Properties of Diboron Tetrafluoride and Related Compounds
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF JOHN DONALD HANSEN for the Ph. D. in Inorganic Chemistry (Name) (Degree) (Major) Date thesis is presented February 1, 1965 Title PREPARATION AND LEWIS ACID PROPERTIES OF DIBORON TETRAFLUORIDE AND RELATED COMPOUNDS Abstract approved (Major professor) Attempts to synthesize diboron tetrafluoride by the reduction of boron trifluoride with alkali metal solutions in 1, 2 - dimethoxyethane proved to be unsuccessful. No diboron tetrahalide was found when boron trifluoride, antimony trifluoride, or boron trichloride was reacted with tetra -(dimethylamino) - diboron; although there appeared to be some exchange between chloride and amine groups. Diboron tetrafluoride was prepared by the treatment of diboron tetrachloride with antimony trifluoride. The diboron tetrachloride was produced by the acid hydrolysis of tetra -(dimethylamino) -diboron to hypoboric acid with subsequent dehydration and reaction with boron trichloride. From the results of.the formation of Lewis acid -base complexes and their acid displacement reactions the order of relative acid strength was found to be: hydrogen chloride, diboron tetrafluoride boron trifluoride <boron trichloride. Diboron tetrafluoride formed strong complexes with triethylamine, trimethylamine, 2 , 6- lutidine, N, N, N', N' -tetramethylethylenediamine, and 1, 2- dimethoxyethane. A weak complex occurred with benzoni- trile, whereas, no complexation was found with p- chlorobenzonitrile. Boron trifluoride displaced diboron tetrafluoride from its complexes with 1, 2- dimethoxyethane, trimethylamine, and triethylamine. No displacement occurred, under the conditions investigated, with the complexes of N, N, N', N'- tetramethylethylenediamine and benzonitrile. It was found that p- chlorobenzonitrile serves as an excellent Lewis base for the separation of boron trifluoride from hydrogen chloride and boron trichloride impurities by complex formation.
