Insertion of CO 2 into the carbon–boron bond of a boronic ester ligand

New Ru and Zn diazafluorenyl complexes undergo C–H borylation of the diazafluorenyl ligand to form the corresponding diazafluorenylboronic ester complexes, which can insert CO 2 into their C–B bonds to form boryl ester functionalities. The relevance of these new reactivities towards catalytic CO 2 r...

Description
Summary:New Ru and Zn diazafluorenyl complexes undergo C–H borylation of the diazafluorenyl ligand to form the corresponding diazafluorenylboronic ester complexes, which can insert CO 2 into their C–B bonds to form boryl ester functionalities. The relevance of these new reactivities towards catalytic CO 2 reduction has also been explored.
