Els compostos d'organobor (o compostos orgànics del bor) són compostos químics que contenen un enllaç químic entre carboni (C) i bor (B) (enllaç C-B). Normalment són derivats orgànics del borà (BH₃), per exemple els trialquil borans.

La química de l'organobor és la ciència corresponent que explora les propietats, l'estructura i la reactivitat d'aquests compostos.

Els compostos d'organobor són reactius importants en química orgànica que permeten moltes transformacions químiques, la més important anomenada hidroboració. Les reaccions d'organoborats i borans impliquen la transferència d'un grup nucleòfil unit al bor a un centre electròfil, ja sigui inter o intramolecularment. Els borats α,β-insaturats, així com els borats amb un grup sortint a la posició α, són molt susceptibles a la migració intramolecular 1,2 d'un grup del bor a la posició α electròfila. L'oxidació o la protonòlisi dels organoborans resultants poden generar una varietat de productes orgànics, inclosos alcohols, compostos carbonílics, alquens i halurs.

Propietats de l'enllaç C-B

The C-B bond has low polarity (the difference in electronegativity 2.55 for carbon and 2.04 for boron), and therefore alkyl boron compounds are in general stable though easily oxidized.

In part because its lower electronegativity, boron often forms electron-deficient compounds, such as the triorganoboranes. Vinyl groups and aryl groups donate electrons and make boron less electrophilic and the C-B bond gains some double bond character. Like the parent borane, diborane, organoboranes are classified in organic chemistry as strong electrophiles because boron is unable to gain a full octet of electrons. Unlike diborane however, most organoboranes do not form dimers.

Síntesi

From Grignard reagents

Simple organoboranes such as triethylborane or tris(pentafluorophenyl)boron can be prepared from trifluoroborane (as the ether complex) and the ethyl or pentafluorophenyl Grignard reagent. The borates (R₄B⁻) are generated via addition of R⁻-equivalents (RMgX, RLi, etc.) to R₃B.

From alkenes

Alkenes insert into B-H bonds of boranes in a process called hydroboration. The process involves anti-Markovnikov addition. Hydroboration of alkenes or alkynes with borane (BH₃) or borane equivalents leads to the conversion of only 33% of the starting olefin to product after oxidation or protonolysis—the remaining olefin is incorporated into boron-containing byproducts. One organoboron reagent that is often employed in synthesis is 9-BBN. Hydroborations take place stereospecifically in a syn mode, that is on the same face of the alkene. In this concerted reaction the transition state is represented as a square with the corners occupied by carbon, carbon, hydrogen and boron with maximum overlap between the two olefin p-orbitals and the empty boron orbital.

By borylation

Article principal: Borylation

Metal-catalyzed C-H Borylation reactions are transition metal catalyzed organic reactions that produce an organoboron compound through functionalization of aliphatic and aromatic C-H bonds. A common reagent in this type of reaction is bis(pinacolato)diboron.

Classes of organoboron compounds

Organoboranes and hydrides

Among the most studied classes of organoboron compounds have the formula BR_nH_3−n. As discussed above, these compounds are used as catalysts, reagents, and synthetic intermediates. The trialkyl and triaryl derivatives feature trigonal planar boron center that is typically only weakly Lewis acidic. Except for a few very bulky derivatives, the hydrides (BR_nH_3−n for n = 1 or 2) exist as dimers, reminiscent of the structure of diborane itself. Trisubstituted derivatives, e.g. triethylboron are monomers.

Borinic and boronic acids and esters (BR_n(OR)_3-n)

Compounds of the type BR_n(OR)_3-n are called borinic esters (n = 2), boronic esters (n = 1), and borates (n = 0). Boronic acids are used in Suzuki reaction. Trimethyl borate, which is debatably not an organoboron compound, is an intermediate in the production of sodium borohydride.

Boron clusters

Boron is renowned for forming cluster compounds, e.g. dodecaborate [B₁₂H₁₂]^2-. Many organic derivatives are known for such clusters. One example is [B₁₂(CH₃)₁₂]^2- and its radical derivative [B₁₂(CH₃)₁₂]⁻. Related cluster compounds with carbon vertices are called carboranes. The best known is orthocarborane, with the formula C₂B₁₀H₁₂. Although they have few commercial applications, carboranes have attracted much attention because they are so structurally unusual. Anionic derivatives, dicarbollides, e.g., [C₂B₉H₁₁]²⁻ are ligands that behave like cyclopentadienide.

Bora-substituted aromatic compounds

In borabenzene, one CH center in benzene is replaced by boron. These compounds are invariably isolated as adducts, e.g., C₅H₅B-pyridine. The cyclic compound borole, a structural analog of pyrrole, has not been isolated, but substituted derivatives known as boroles are known. The cyclic compound borepin is aromatic.

Compostos del boril

Article principal: Boril·lització

Boryl anions have the formula R₂B⁻. Nucleophilic anionic boryl compounds have long been elusive but a 2006 study described a boryllithium compound, which reacts as a nucleophile: Organometallic compounds with metal to boron bonds, (i.e., M–BR₂), are known as boryl complexes. Related ligands are borylenes (M–B(R)–M).

• 
  Boryllithium

The absence of lithium boryl compounds is notable because in other period 2 elements lithium salts are common e.g. lithium fluoride, lithium hydroxide, lithium amide, and methyllithium. The gap highlights the very low electronegativity of boron. Reaction of base with a borohydride R₂BH does not result in deprotonation to the boryl anion R₂B⁻ but to formation of the boryl anion R₂B⁻H(base)⁺. This reaction product has a complete octet. Instead the boryl compound is prepared by reductive heterolysis of a boron-bromide bond by lithium metal. The new boryl lithium compound is very similar to and isoelectronic with N-heterocyclic carbenes. It is designed to benefit from aromatic stabilization (6-electron system counting the nitrogen lone pairs and an empty boron p-orbital, see structure A) and from kinetic stabilization from the bulky 2,6-diisopropylphenyl groups. X-ray diffraction confirms sp2 hybridization at boron and its nucleophilic addition reaction with benzaldehyde gives further proof of the proposed structure.

Alkylideneboranes

Alkylideneboranes of the type RB=CRR with a boron – carbon double bond are rarely encountered. An example is borabenzene. The parent compound is HB=CH₂ which can be detected at low temperatures. A fairly stable derivative is CH₃B=C(SiMe₃)₂ but is prone to cyclodimerisation.

NHC adducts of boron

NHCs and boranes form stable NHC borane adducts.

Triethylborane adducts can be synthesised directly from the imidazolium salt and lithium triethylborohydride. Members of this compound class are investigated for use as reagent or catalyst.

Diborens

Chemical compounds with boron to boron double bonds are rare. In 2007 the first neutral diborene (RHB=BHR) was presented by Gregory Robinson of the University of Georgia.

Each boron atom has a proton attached to it and each boron atom is coordinated to a NHC carbene. The parent structure with the additional carbene ligands is diborane(2).

Reaccions

Organoboranes (R₃B) and borates (R₄B⁻, generated via addition of R⁻ to R₃B) possess boron–carbon bonds that are polarized toward carbon. Thus, the carbon attached to boron is nucleophilic, and in borates this property may be harnessed to transfer one of the R groups to an electrophilic center either inter- or (more often) intramolecularly. In the latter case, the nucleophilic R group is able to undergo 1,2-migration towards an electrophilic carbon attached to boron. The resulting reorganized borane can then be oxidized or subjected to protonolysis to afford organic products. Examples covered in this article are shown below.

Hydroboration of alkenes or alkynes is an efficient method for the generation of boranes; however, the use of borane (BH₃) or borane equivalents leads to the conversion of only 33% of the starting olefin to product after oxidation or protonolysis—the remaining olefin is incorporated into boron-containing byproducts. The use of a stoichiometric amount of 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9-BBN) as the hydroborating reagent provides a solution to this problem.

Hydroboration-oxidation

Article principal: Reactions of organoborates and boranes

In organic synthesis the hydroboration reaction is taken further to generate other functional groups in the place of the boron group. The hydroboration-oxidation reaction offers a route to alcohols by oxidation of the borane with hydrogen peroxide or to the carbonyl group with the stronger oxidizing agent chromium oxide.

Rearrangements

Carbon monoxide is found to react with trialkylboranes. What follows is a 1,2-rearrangement whereby an alkyl substituent migrates from boron to the carbon of the carbonyl group. Homologated primary alcohols result from the treatment of organoboranes with carbon monoxide and a hydride.

Al·lilboració

Asymmetric allylboration demonstrates another useful application of organoboranes in carbon–carbon bond formation. In this example from Nicolaou's synthesis of the epothilones, asymmetric allylboration (using an allylborane derived from chiral alpha-pinene) is used in conjunction with TBS protection and ozonolysis. Overall, this provides a two-carbon homologation sequence that delivers the required acetogenin sequence.

Com a agent reductor

Borane hydrides such as 9-BBN and L-selectride (lithium tri-sec-butylborohydride) are reducing agents. An example of an asymmetric catalyst for carbonyl reductions is the CBS catalyst. This catalyst is also based on boron, the purpose of which is coordination to the carbonyl oxygen atom.

Borats

Trialkylboranes, BR₃, can be oxidized to the corresponding borates, B(OR)₃. One method for the determination of the amount of C-B bonds in a compound is by oxidation of R₃B with trimethylamine oxide (Me₃NO) to B(OR)₃. The trimethylamine (Me₃N) formed can then be titrated.

• 
  Alquil trifluoroborats (Batey 2002)

Boronic acids RB(OH)₂ react with potassium bifluoride K[HF₂] to form trifluoroborate salts K[RBF₃] which are precursors to nucleophilic alkyl and aryl boron difluorides, ArBF₂. The salts are more stable than the boronic acids themselves and used for instance in alkylation of certain aldehydes:

Suzuki reaction and related reactions

Organoboron compounds also lend themselves to transmetalation reactions, especially with organopalladium compounds. This reaction type is exemplified in the Suzuki reaction, which involves coupling of aryl- or vinyl-boronic acid with an aryl- or vinyl-halide catalyzed by a palladium(0) complex,

${\begin{matrix}{}\\{\ce {{R1-BY2}+R2-X->[{\underset {\text{catalyst}}{\text{Pd}}}][{\text{Base}}]R1-R2}}\\{}\end{matrix}}$ (Equació 1)

This reaction is an important method for making carbon-carbon bonds.

Mecanismes i estequiometria

Boranes alone are generally not nucleophilic enough to transfer an alkyl group to an electrophilic center. However, after nucleophilic attack, the resulting borate is highly nucleophilic. If the nucleophile contains unsaturated functionality or a leaving group at the α position, one of the R groups attached to boron is able to migrate to the electrophilic α carbon (see equation (2) below). The propensity of an organic group to migrate depends on its ability to stabilize negative charge: alkynyl > aryl ≈ alkenyl > primary alkyl > secondary alkyl > tertiary alkyl. Migration takes place with retention of configuration at the migrating carbon and inversion of configuration at the migration terminus (provided it is sp³ hybridized). Bis(norbornyl)borane and 9-BBN are often used as "dummy" hydroboration reagents for this reason—only the R group derived from the hydroborated olefin is likely to migrate upon nucleophilic activation.

• 
  X

α-Halo enolates are commonly used as nucleophiles in this context. After nucleophilic attack at boron, the resulting ketoboronate rearranges to a neutral enolborane. Upon protonolysis, a functionalized carbonyl compound results. The intermediate enolboranes may also be quenched with electrophiles.

• 
  X

Alkynylboronates are versatile intermediates that can be converted to either ketones or olefins after simultaneous migration and attack of the alkyne on a separate electrophile. The electrophile and migrating group end up trans in the resulting alkenylborane. Protonolysis of this intermediate generates olefins, while oxidation leads to ketones after tautomerization.

Scope and limitations of reactions

The scope of organoboranes and borates as reagents for organic synthesis is extremely wide. Reactions of organoboron compounds may produce alcohols, carbonyl compounds, halides, peroxides, amines, and other functionality depending on other starting materials employed and reaction conditions. This section covers a small subset of these methods, focusing on the synthesis of alcohols, carbonyl compounds, and halides.

Alcohol synthesis from organoboranes and borates relies on either nucleophilic group transfer to a carbonyl group or oxidation of an intermediate organoborane. Homologated primary alcohols result from the treatment of organoboranes with carbon monoxide and a hydride.

• 
  X

Tertiary alcohols with two identical groups attached to the alcohol carbon may be synthesized through a double migration reaction of alkynylborates in the presence of acid. Use of a single equivalent of acid and oxidation or protonolysis leads to ketones or olefins, respectively (see Mechanism and Stereochemistry section above).

• 
  X

Acylation of borates is possible in the presence of an acyl halide. Here, the borate was generated from tri(cyclopentyl)borane and phenyllithium; the three cyclopentyl groups are serving as "dummy" groups and do not migrate to a significant amount.

• 
  X

Treatment of trialkylboranes with α-halo enolates leads to functionalized ketones. Because the migration is stereospecific (retentive with respect to the migrating group and invertive at the α carbon), this method provides a means for the synthesis of enantiopure α-alkyl or -aryl ketones.

• 
  X

α-Halo ester enolates also add to boranes to eventually afford α-functionalized products; however, yields are slightly lower. Diazoesters and diazoketones may also be used in this context without the requirement for external base. α,α'-Dialo enolates react with boranes to form α-halo carbonyl compounds that can be further functionalized at the α position.

• 
  X

Halides may be synthesized from organoboranes by activating with hydroxide or alkoxide and treatment with X₂. Two of the three alkyl groups attached to the borane may be converted to halide in the presence of excess base, but the use of disiamylborane as the hydroborating reagent permits the selective halogenation of only the hydroborated olefin.

• 
  X

Treatment of an alkenylborane with iodine or bromine leads to migration of one of the organic groups attached to boron. Alkynyl groups migrate selectively, forming enynes after treatment with sodium acetate and hydrogen peroxide.
