Abstract
AbstractWhile (Ph2CN2)B(C6F5)3 is unstable, single electron transfer from Cp*2Co affords the isolation of stable products [Cp*2Co][Ph2CNNHB(C6F5)3] 1 and [Cp*Co(C5Me4CH2B(C6F5)3)] 2. The analogous combination of Ph2CN2 and BPh3 showed no evidence of adduct formation and yet single electron transfer from Cp*2Cr affords the species [Cp*2Cr][PhC(C6H4)NNBPh3] 3 and [Cp*2Cr][Ph2CNNHBPh3] 4. Computations showed both reactions proceed via transient radical anions of the diphenyldiazomethane–borane adducts to effect C−H bond activations.
