“…Besides their relevance for frustrated Lewis pair chemistry, some of the functionalized (ace-)naphthylphosphinoboranes have been the starting point for the synthesis of interesting new compound classes, such as P 2 B 2 heterocycles, [12,16] borenium ions, [18,20,21] and boron-centered radicals. [19] A selection of these peri-substituted (ace-)naphthylaminoboranes (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6) and (ace-)naphthylphosphinoboranes (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12) are shown in Schemes 1 and 2. These compounds can be divided into regular LPs (1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10, 12) and FLPs (4,5,6,9,11), which can be easily distinguished by their N-B and P-B peri distances.…”
