The frustrated Lewis pair induced formation of a pentafulvene [6 + 4] cycloaddition product

Abstract

The frustrated Lewis pair Mes2P–CH2CH2–B(C6F5)2 reacts with excess 6,6-dimethylpentafulvene to yield a P/B-Lewis pair addition product to an elusive pentafulvene [6 + 4] cycloaddition dimer. This observation may open a new field of utilization of frustrated Lewis pair chemistry.
