Abstract

The reaction between 1, 2-B2Cl2 (NMe2) 2 and disodium catecholate Na2 [1, 2-O2C6H4] affords the cyclic diborane (4) compound 1, 2-B2 (NMe2) 2 (cat)(cat= 1, 2-O2C6H4), whereas a similar reaction using dilithium thiocatecholate Li2 [1, 2-S2C6H4] affords the 1, 1- isomer 1, 1-B2 (NMe2) 2 (thiocat)(thiocat= 1, 2-S2C6H4). Both compounds can be used to prepare unsymmetric diborane (4) species.
