Abstract
Addition of BH3 to 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) leads to the formation of the first coordination complex of PTA in which a nitrogen and not the phosphorus of PTA is involved in the bonding. Multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, and computational chemistry are utilized in the characterization of the products. Crystal structures of PTA-BH3 (1) and O=PTA-BH3 (2) adducts are described. In addition a coordination polymer, [CpRu(PTA)2Cl(Ph3B3O 3)]n (3), resulting from Lewis acid-base adduct formation between the PTA ligands of CpRu(PTA)2Cl and the product of the cyclocondensation of phenylboronic acid is described. The polymeric compound 3 was also characterized by X-ray crystallography.
