31P and 195Pt solid state NMR spectra on anti-[(PHCy)ClPt(μ-PCy2)2Pt(PHCy)Cl] (3) and [(PHCy2)Pt(μ-PCy2)(κ2P,O-μ-POCy2)Pt(PHCy2)] (Pt–Pt) (4) were recorded under CP/MAS conditions (31P) or with the CP/CPMG pulse sequence (195Pt) and compared to data obtained by relativistic DFT calculations of 31P and 195Pt CS tensors and isotropic shielding at the ZORA Spin Orbit level.

Abstract: Hydroboration reaction of alkynes is one of the most synthetically powerful tools to access organoboron compounds, versatile precursors for cross coupling chemistry. This type of reaction has traditionally been mediated by transition metal or main group catalysts. Herein, we report a novel method using tropylium salts, typically known as organic oxidants and Lewis acids, to efficiently promote the hydroboration reaction of alkynes. A broad range of vinylboranes can be easily accessed via this metal-free protocol. Similar hydroboration reactions of alkenes and epoxides can also be efficiently catalyzed by the same tropylium catalysts. Experimental studies and DFT calculations suggested that the reaction follows an uncommon mechanistic paradigm, which is triggered by a hydride abstraction of pinacolborane with tropylium ion. This is followed by a series of <i>in situ</i> counterion-activated substituent exchanges to generate boron intermediates that promote the hydroboration reaction.
