Abstract:
The rhodium complex [Rh(Ph 2 PCH 2 CH 2 CH 2 PPh 2 )(η 6 ‐FC 6 H 5 )][BAr F 4 ], 2 , catalyzes BH/BD exchange between D 2 and the boranes H 3 B⋅NMe 3 , H 3 B⋅SMe 2 and HBpin, facilitating the expedient isolation of a variety of deuterated analogues in high isotopic purities, and in particular the isotopologues of N ‐methylamine‐borane: R 3 B⋅NMeR 2 1‐ d x (R=H, D; x= 0, 2, 3 or 5). It also acts to catalyze the dehydropolymerization of 1‐ d x to give deuterated polyaminoboranes. Mechanistic studies suggest a metal‐based polymerization involving an unusual hybrid coordination insertion chain‐growth/step‐growth mechanism.
