Abstract: B,B-Dimesityl-substituted dithieno-1,2-dihydro-1,2-diborin was synthesized and its properties and reactivity were studied. Owing to the noticeably electron-deficient and antiaromatic character of the 1,2-dihydro-1,2-diborin ring, this compound was found to homolytically cleave diatomic hydrogen (H2) gas at… read more here.
