Abstract

The reaction of a cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene (CAAC) with dichloro- and dibromobis(trimethylsilyl)aminoborane results in the formation of haloiminoborane-CAAC adducts. When the iodo analogue is used, an oxidative addition at the carbene center affords a cationic iminoboryl-CAAC adduct, featuring a boron-nitrogen triple bond. Similar salts are also obtained by halide abstraction from the chloro- and bromoiminoborane-CAAC adducts. The reactivity of all of these compounds towards CO2 is discussed.
