Abstract

Deboration of 1-PhCH2-1,2-C2B10H11 by heating in ethanolic potassium hydroxide afforded Me4N+ [7-PhCH2-7,8-C2B9H11] which was treated with excess halosuccinimide (NCS, NBS) in acetonitrile or with elemental iodine or bromine in methanol to obtain Me4N+ [7-PhCH2-9,11-X2-7,8-C2B9H9] (X = Cl, Br, I). The reaction of 1-PhCH2-1,2-C2B10H11 with an equimolar amount of iodine gave a mixture of Me4N+·[7-PhCH2-11-I-7,8-C2B9H10]- and Me4N+[7-C6H5CH2-9-I-7,8-C2B9H10] at a ratio 1:1.8 due to steric effect of the benzyl substituent. The 11B chemical shifts of each μ-H tautomer of Me4N+ [7-PhCH2-9,11-X2-7,8-C2B9H9] (X = H, F, Cl, Br, I) were calculated at the DFT level of theory, and their contributions to the average 11B NMR spectrum and the corresponding tautomeric equilibrium constants were determined.
