Borenium ions are tricoordinate boron cations of the type [LBR2]+, where L is a donor ligand. While the inherently reactive nature of these Lewis acidic species has been harnessed to advance bond acti...
Cyclic peroxides are highly reactive oxygen-containing species that play important roles in chemical synthesis. Now, the reaction between diazoboranes and triplet oxygen affords a family of cyclic dio...
Acenes are attractive molecular platforms with characteristic π-electron delocalization, resulting in exceptionally small HOMO–LUMO gaps, which makes them valuable for use in a variety of organic elec...
