Borane carbene or not? A theoretical verification of Lewis Acid-Catalyzed Transformation of Diazos
Abstract
A case study in borane-catalyzed reaction mechanism of diazo is selected to elucidate the activation mode of such compound. The computational results show that the formation of borane carbene species is the key intermediate for further transformation, which is different from the previous accepted LA-ligated free carbene species.
