Crystalline and Soft Materials Based on Dative Boron-Nitrogen Bonds

The thesis describes the utilization of dative boron-nitrogen bond is used for the construction of new materials. In chapter 2.1, the synthesis of new organogels based on bisimidazolyl ligands and diboronate esters is described. Gels with a critical gel co ...

Supramolecular gels based on boronate esters and imidazolyl donors

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Nicolas Luisier

Dative boron–nitrogen bonds can be used for the controlled assembly of boronate esters and N-donor ligands. So far, most investigations have focused on crystalline assemblies. In contrast, there are very few reports about soft materials based on dative B–N ...

Crystal Engineering of Polymeric Structures with Dative Boron–Nitrogen Bonds: Design Criteria and Limitations

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Euro Solari, Kurt Schenk, Philip Pattison, Nicolas Luisier, Kevin Bally, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani

The combination of tripyridyl ligands and linear diboronate esters results in the formation of oligomeric or polymeric adducts featuring dative boron−nitrogen bonds. The relative orientation of the two different building blocks in the assemblies can be pre ...

Boron-Nitrogen Dative Bonds in Structural Supramolecular Chemistry

Erin Sheepwash

This work describes the use of boron-nitrogen dative bonds in supramolecular chemistry. Molecular tectons have been synthesized for crystal engineering. These tectons are linked via B-N dative bonds to form 1-dimensional polymers and macrocycles. B-N dativ ...

Dative boron–nitrogen bonds in structural supramolecular chemistry: multicomponent assembly of prismatic organic cages

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Kurt Schenk, Burçak Içli, Erin Sheepwash

The multicomponent reaction of diboronic acids with a catechol and a tripyridyl linker results in the formation trigonal prismatic cages. The cages feature six dative boron–nitrogen bonds as structure-directing elements. The size of the cages can be varied ...
