Hydroboration, catalysis

Catalyzed Boration Reactions. Since the initial report by Mannig and Noth on the rhodinm catalyzed room temperature addition of HBcat to alkenes much effort has been devoted to the search for new catalytic hydroboration processes and other boration reactions (see Hydroboration Catalysis) The most intrigning aspect of transition-metal...

One computational study see Molecular Orbital Theory) has appeared using RhCl(PH3)2 to model the rhodium-catalyzed hydroboration of ethylene see Hydroboration Catalysis). Both associative and dissociative pathways were examined (equation 47). In the associative path, three possible... 

The importance of ate -complexes and charge separation in hydrosilylation, hydrogenation, and hydroboration catalysis is still unclear in determining catalytic turnover and the mechanisms of these reactions remain underexplored. While...
