Abstract

Addition of an organolithium compound to a BN-phenanthrene with embedded B and N atoms is proposed to result in coordination of RLi to the boron atom. This coordination, supported by NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations, increases the nucleophilicity of the system in the beta position to the N atom and is therefore a useful tool for promoting regioselective C-H functionalization of BN aromatics.

Abstract

A novel parent BN-benzo[c]phenanthrene, with helical chirality and remarkable structural features, has been easily obtained in three steps with a global yield of 55%. Moreover, Cl-substituted derivatives have been prepared and these have served as useful starting materials for the development of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.

Abstract

4a-Aza-10a-boraphenanthrene has been synthesized in only four steps from commercially available materials with a remarkable overall yield of 62%. In contrast to other BN-isosteres of phenathrene, this isomer is weakly fluorescent, which has been explained by means of computational studies that found a low energy conical intersection for the nonradiative deactivation of the excited state. Moreover, a completely regioselective functionalization of 4a-aza-10a-boraphenanthrene at C-1 by reaction with activated electrophiles has been achieved.
