Abstract:Inspired by the doping approach used in silicon technology to building inorganic semiconductors, in this chapter we tackle the emerging approach in organic synthesis of exploiting the replacement of carbon atoms with isolobal heteroatoms. Capitalizing on the idea for which the insertion of heteroatoms of graphitic nanostructure preserves the planar geometry of the π‐scaffold, one could envisage to tune the optoelectronic properties of π‐conjugated molecular materials by the only insertion of heteroatoms.

“…Boron-containing heterocyclic compounds have received rapidly increasing attention in recent years due to their ability to activate inert bonds, 1–9 and their tuneable photophysical properties have led to applications in optoelectronic devices. 10–19 In particular, diazadiborinines, – six-membered aromatic rings featuring two C, two B, and two N atoms – have demonstrated themselves to be a privileged subclass of B-heterocycles (Scheme 1a). They have demonstrated a diverse array of challenging bond activations including H–H, C–H, C–F, and C–C bonds, 20–29 and have been very recently applied as organocatalysts in hydroboration and N -formylation reactions.…”
A tricyclic annulated 1,4,2-diazaborole reacts with hydrido-, fluoro-, and chloro-boranes to form 6-membered diazadiborinine derivatives. Reduction of these latter products leads to the first examples of Cs symmetric 1,4,2,5-diazadiborinines.

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.
