A formal N-heterocyclic carbene insertion into the B–H bond of 9-BBN followed by a ring expansion reaction is reported. NHC-9-BBN adducts were reacted in one or two steps to give the corresponding di- or triazaborines. Hydride abstraction of selected species with [Ph3C]+ is facile, giving rise to 6π-aromatic cations with Lewis acidity comparable to Lewis acids commonly employed in frustrated Lewis pairs.

Frustrated Lewis pairs consisting of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) and the borane B(C6F5)3 react with elemental sulfur or selenium to give products of the type NHC-E-B(C6F5)3, where E is S or Se. Three such products, two with sulfur and one with selenium, were characterized by X-ray diffraction and shown to exhibit considerable conformational flexibility, as revealed by differing torsion angles in the atom sequence N-C-E-B-Cipso-Cortho. In the sulfur derivatives, the S-B bonds are all long (ca. 2.05 Å), and the C-S bonds (ca. 1.73 Å) are clearly lengthened compared to imidazole-2-thiones. The Se-B distance of 2.2111 Å is the first selenone-borane bond length to be determined by X-ray analysis.

The Lewis acids Ga(C 6 F 5 ) 3 , In(C 6 F 5 ) 3 and Ga(C 6 Cl 5 ) 3 are prepared and their Lewis acidity has been probed experimentally and computationally. The species Ga(C 6 F 5 ) 3 and In(C 6 F 5 ) 3 in conjunction with phosphine donors are shown to heterolytically split H 2 and catalyse the hydrogenation of an imine. In addition, frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) derived from Ga(C 6 F 5 ) 3 and In(C 6 F 5 ) 3 and phosphines react with diphenyldisulfide to phosphoniumgallates or indates of the form [ t Bu 3 PSPh][PhSE(C 6 F 5 ) 3 ] and [ t Bu 3 PSPh][(μ-SPh)(E(C 6 F 5 ) 3 ) 2 ] (E = Ga, In). The potential of the FLPs based on Ga(C 6 F 5 ) 3 , In(C 6 F 5 ) 3 and Ga(C 6 Cl 5 ) 3 and phosphines is also shown in reactions with phenylacetylene to give pure or mixtures of the products [ t Bu 3 PH][PhCCE(C 6 X 5 ) 3 ] and R 3 P(Ph)C=C(H)E(C 6 X 5 ) 3 . A number of these species are crystallographically characterized. The implications for the use of these species in FLP chemistry are considered. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Frustrated Lewis pair chemistry’.
