Structure of tBuN=B-tBu (tBu = tert-butyl). The B-N bond distance is 126 pm.[1]

Iminoboranes comprise a group of inorganic compounds with the generic formula containing triple bonds XB≡NY, where X, Y can be H, F, RO, R2N, R3C, etc, among which the simplest form is HB≡NH. They are electronically related to acetylenes but are usually more reactive due to the polarity.[2][3]

Structure and Bonding

The parent iminoborane, HB=NH, is produced by the photolysis of H3BNH3.[4][5][6] Bonding in iminoboranes can be described by two resonance structures:[7]

HB-N+H HB=NH

The stability is dramatically affected by bulkyy substituents such that one stable iminoborane is (tert-Bu)B=N(tert-Bu).[1]

Synthesis

Thermal decomposition of azidoboranes induces migration of R from boron to the nascent nitrene gives iminoboranes:[8]

R2B-N3 RB=NR + N2

Elimination of fluorosilanes provides another route. Bulky substituents such as (Me3Si)3Si stabilize the iminoborane with respect to oligomerization:[9]

(Me3Si)3SiB(F)-N(SiMe3)2 (Me3Si)3Si-B=N-SiMe3 + F-SiMe3

Reactivity

Oligomerization

Iminoboranes tend to oligomerize, often forming cyclic derivatives. Five types of oligomerization product are produced: cyclodimers (1,3,2,4-diazadiboretidines,[1] Di[10]), cyclotrimers (borazines, Tr), bicyclotrimers (Dewar borazines, Tr’[11]), cyclotetramers (octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetraza-2,4,6,8-tetraborocines, Te[12]), and polymers (polyiminoboranes, Po); which are shown below.[13] Which product is dominant depends on the structures of reactants and the reaction conditions. Some of the products can be interconverted.[14]

Addition reactions

Some electron-rich iminoboranes form adducts with Lewis acids.[15]

The addition of protic agents is a fast quantitive reaction.[16]

Boration reaction of iminoboranes is the addition of B-X single bond to B≡N, where -X can be -Cl (chloro-boration), -N3 (azido-boration), -SR (thio-boration), -NR2 (amino-boration) and R (alkyl-boration). One of these reactions are illustrated here.

Cycloaddition

The typical [2+3]-cycloaddition is the addition of B≡N and RN3 to give a BN4 ring.[1] One of the widely investigated [2+2]-cycloadditions is the reaction of aldehydes and ketones.<ref>von Kutepow, Nikolaus (1972-04-01).

Coordination to transition metals

Like acetylenes, iminoboranes can also coordinate with transition metals.
