Abstract

Correction for ‘Dehydrocoupling of phosphine–boranes using the [RhCp*Me(PMe3)(CH2Cl2)][BArF4] precatalyst: stoichiometric and catalytic studies’ by Thomas N. Hooper et al., Chem. Sci., 2016, DOI: 10.1039/c5sc04150c.


The authors regret that in the original article the structures of two of the compounds in Scheme 12 contained errors. A corrected version of Scheme 12 is presented herein, where a –PMe3 ligand has been removed from the third compound in part A and a hydrogen atom has been removed from the –PPhH group of the first compound in part C.

Scheme 12 Suggested mechanisms for dehydropolymerization. [Rh] = Rh(PR3)Cp* (PR3 = PMe3 or PPhH2).

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
