1,2‐Azaborine: The Boron‐Nitrogen Derivative of ortho‐Benzyne

Abstract: The BN analogue of ortho‐benzyne, 1,2‐azaborine, is generated by flash vacuum pyrolysis, trapped under cryogenic conditions, and studied by direct spectroscopic techniques. The parent BN aryne spontaneously binds N2 and CO2, thus demonstrating its highly reactive nature. The interaction with N2 is photochemically reversible. The CO2 adduct of 1,2‐azaborine is a cyclic carbamate which undergoes photocleavage, thus resulting in overall CO2 splitting.

“…The corresponding Dewar isomer 6 was also obtained as an oil; however, it was quite readily hydrolyzed by trace amounts of water. As 5 is a thermal precursor to a BN aryne studied by matrix isolation techniques, we also investigated its photochemistry in an argon matrix. Photolysis of 5 with 280–400 nm irradiation quickly led to the formation of the Dewar valence isomer, based on the comparison of experimental and computed IR spectra, as the only photo product.…”
