Abstract:Azametallacyclopropane‐containing base stabilized borane complexes of group 5 transition metals have been synthesized and their structural aspects have been described. Treatment of Cp* based Ta and Nb chlorides, Cp*TaCl4 and Cp*NbCl4 with [LiBH4 ⋅ THF] followed by addition of ligands, such as 2‐mercaptobenzothiazole, MBT, (C7H5NS2) and 2‐mercaptobenzoxazole, MBO (C7H5NSO) led to the formation of complexes [Cp*M‐[BHS(CH2ENC6H4)(C7H4NSE)] (1: M=Ta, E=S; 2; M=Nb, E=S; 3: M=Ta, E=O; 4; M=Nb, E=O, Cp*=pentamethyl‐η… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
