Lewis Base Adducts of Borafluorene: En Route to Polymers and the Discovery of New Luminescent Adducts
DownloadFall 2013
A series of novel Lewis base monoadducts of 9-bromo-9-borafluorene (BrBFl•LB, LB = IPr, IPrCH2, PPh3) and the bisadduct [(DMAP)2BFl]Br were prepared and underwent reactivity studies in the pursuit of incorporating a borafluorene unit into a polymeric scaffold for the sensing of nucleophiles in...
