Cosby T, Bhattacharjee A, Henneberry S, LeBlanc J, Caputo C
Chem Commun (Camb)
. 2024 Apr;
60(41):5391-5394.
PMID: 38586997
We describe a new approach to enhancing Lewis acidity, through the single electron oxidation of a borane with a pendant phenothiazine. This results in the formation of a persistent radical...

. 2023 Apr;
1(1):49-56.
PMID: 37025975
Various methods have been developed to measure the strength of a Lewis acid. A major challenge for these measurements lies in the complexity that arises from variable solvent interactions and...

. 2021 Sep;
146(18):5756-5766.
PMID: 34515696
People spend up to 90% of their time indoors, and yet our understanding of indoor air quality and the chemical processes driving it are poorly understood, despite levels of key...

Torres L, Dobrovetsky R, Caputo C
Chem Commun (Camb)
. 2021 Jul;
57(67):8272-8275.
PMID: 34323253
We describe the synthesis of alkynyl phosphanes of the type RP-C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C-C(OCH)Ph (R = Ph, Cy) and investigate their transformation to geminally substituted phosphonium borato-allene zwitterions upon...

Org Biomol Chem
. 2021 May;
19(21):4796-4802.
PMID: 33982733
The evolution of frustrated Lewis pair chemistry has led to significant research into the development of new Lewis acidic boranes. Much of this has focused on modifying aryl substituents rather...

. 2020 Mar;
49(45):16054-16058.
PMID: 32134094
We synthesized a novel Lewis acidic aminoborane containing a phenothiazyl substituent and demonstrated its potential to catalytically promote the dehydrocoupling of tin hydrides. The observed reactivity would imply a homolytic...

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
. 2015 Dec;
55(4):1417-21.
PMID: 26663711
The electrophilic organofluorophosphonium catalyst [(C6F5)3PF][B(C6F5)4] is shown to effect benzylation or alkylation by aryl and alkyl CF3 groups with subsequent hydrodefluorination, thus resulting in a net transformation of CF3 into...

. 2015 Jul;
54(35):10178-82.
PMID: 26178268
The combination of phosphorus(V)-based Lewis acids with diaryl amines and diaryl silylamines promotes reversible activation of dihydrogen and can be further exploited in metal-free catalytic olefin hydrogenation. Combined experimental and...

PMID: 25785571
A series of fluorophosphonium salts, [R3PF][X] (R = alkyl or aryl; X = FB(C6F5)3, [B(C6F5)4]), have been prepared by reactions of phosphine/borane frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) with XeF2 or difluorophosphoranes...

PMID: 25758303
The electrophilic phosphonium salt, [(C6 F5 )3 PF][B(C6 F5 )4 ], catalyses the efficient hydrosilylation of ketones, imines and nitriles at room temperature. In the presence of this catalyst, adding...
