Abstract

The rhodium bis(boryl) complex [RhCl(PPh₃)₂{B(cat)}₂] (cat = 1,2-O₂C₆H₄) reacts with the diborane(4) compounds B₂(O₂R)₂ {O₂R = 1,2-O₂C₆H₃Me-4, 1,2-O₂C₆H₂Bu^t ₂-3,5 and dimethyl-L-tartrate [OCH(CO₂Me)CH(CO₂Me)O]} affording unsymmetrical metal bis(boryls) [RhCl(PPh₃)₂{B(cat)}-{B(O₂R)}] and diborane(4) compounds (cat)B-B(O₂R), one possible mechanism for which involves σ-bond metathesis.
