Abstract: (Dimesitylphosphino)ferrocene (FcPMes2) (1) reacted with HB(C6F5)2 (2 equiv) by disproportionation to give adduct FcPMes2·H2B(C6F5) (4) plus B(C6F5)3, whereas 1-(dimesitylphosphino)-1′-vinylferrocene (2) was cleanly hydroborated with HB(C6F5)2 to afford [Fe(η5-C5H4PMes2)(η5-C5H4CH2CH2B(C6F5)2)] (7). Compound 7 adopted an open non-interacting… read more here.
