NHC-Boranes: Air- and Water-tolerant Co-initiators for Type II Photopolymerizations
N-Hetereocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes of boranes are stable compounds that can be used as co-initiators for the type II photopolymerization of acrylates.

Enantioselective catalytic methods for the construction of boron-stereogenic compounds are elusive. In this article, the authors describe a route to these compounds via a copper-catalysed desymmetric B-H insertion on 2-arylpyridine-boranes with carbenes.

Redox Targets for Phosphine–Boranes
Understanding the complex mechanisms underlying redox-mediated biological processes is a fundamental pillar of cellular biology. We describe the identification and quantification of disulfide formation and reduction in response to phosphine–borane ...

Photolysis of Diborane at 1849 Å [PDF]
The photolysis of diborane at 1849 Å has been studied in a specially constructed, internal‐type mercury‐vapor lamp. The products have been found to be H_2, B_(4)H_(10), B_(5)H_(11), and, at low pressures, a —BH— polymer.

Could humans recognize odor by phonon assisted tunneling? [PDF]
Our sense of smell relies on sensitive, selective atomic-scale processes that are initiated when a scent molecule meets specific receptors in the nose. However, the physical mechanisms of detection are not clear.

A frustrated-Lewis-pair approach to catalytic reduction of alkynes to cis-alkenes [PDF]
Frustrated Lewis pairs are compounds containing both Lewis acidic and Lewis basic moieties, where the formation of an adduct is prevented by steric hindrance.

Ambiphilic boron in 1,4,2,5-diazadiborinine
Boranes are archetypal Lewis acids owing to an empty p-orbital on the boron, although Lewis basic tricoordinate boranes have been developed too. Here, the authors report an annulated 1,4,2,5-diazadiborinine derivative with boron atoms that exhibit both ...

A combined "electrochemical-frustrated Lewis pair" approach to hydrogen activation: surface catalytic effects at platinum electrodes [PDF]
Herein, we extend our “combined electrochemical–frustrated Lewis pair” approach to include Pt electrode surfaces for the first time. We found that the voltammetric response of an electrochemical–frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) system involving the B(C6F5)3 ...

Pairing and unpairing electron densities in organic systems: Two-electron three center through space and through bonds interactions [PDF]
Two-electron three-center bonding interactions in organic ions like methonium (CH + 5 ), ethonium (C2H + 7 ), and protonated alkanes n−C4H + 11 isomers (butonium cations) are described and characterized within the theoretical framework of the ...
