摘要
The reaction between trimethylsilyl azide and pentaphenylborole was recently shown to produce the corresponding 1,2-azaborine. Investigating this transformation theoretically suggests that the reaction proceeds via coordination of the azide to the borole, rearrangement to a bicyclic species, and conversion to a kinetically favoured eight-membered BN3C4 heterocycle or expulsion of N-2 to furnish the thermodynamically favoured 1,2-azaborine. The eight-membered species was structurally characterized as a borole adduct and represents an unusual analogue of cyclooctatetraene.
