Contributions to the Chemistry of Boron, 217[1]. - [2 + 2] Cycloaddition Reactions of 9-Fluorenylidene(tetramethylpiperidino)borane with Carbonyl and Thiocarbonyl CompoundsAmino-9-fluorenylidene-borane 1 reacts with acetone or benzophenone in a [2 + 2] cycloaddition manner to give stable 1,2-oxaboretane derivatives 2. Aldehydes behave similarly but the oxaboretanes formed decompose readily. The esters MeCO2Et and MeC≡C - CO2Me as well as Cp(CO)2Fe - COCH3 also provide access to novel oxaboretane derivatives (2e, f, h). In contrast, no oxaboretane is obtained from 1 and MeC(O)NMe2 and only (tmpBO)n (n=2, 3) was isolated as a decomposition product. The amides MeC(O)NHMe and MeC(O)NH2 also provide no access to cycloaddition since their NH bonds insert into the BC double bond of 1. Thioketones react with 1 to yield 1,2-thiaboretanes 5. Tetramethyl-cyclobutan-1-one-3-thione 8 adds 1 at its carbonyl function regiospecifically to form 9. No reaction between 1 and CO2 was observed, but COS produces an 1,2-oxaboretane-4-thione 7, and CS2 in the form of [CpFe(CO)2]2CS2 the corresponding 1,2-thiaboretane-4-thione 10. Analogously, the ketimine Ph2C=NMe adds to 1 producing the 1,2-azaboretidine 11. X-ray structure determination of the 1,2-oxaboretane 2h reveals a butterfly structure (folding anlge: 159.9°) of the four-membered ring in contrast to the 1,2-thiaboretane 5a whose four-membered ring is almost planar, the folding angle being 176.9°.
