Aromaticity can enhance the reactivity of P-donor/borole frustrated Lewis pairs
2019
Cabrera-Trujillo, Jorge Juan | Fernández, Israel
Geminal frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) having a borole fragment as the Lewis acid partner constitute really promising candidates to achieve facile small molecule activation reactions. The predicted enhanced reactivity of these species, as compared to more traditional FLPs, finds its origin in the loss of the antiaromatic character of the borole moiety along the reaction coordinate.
