The one-electron reduction of a cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene (CAAC)-stabilized arylborylene carbonyl complex yields a dimeric borylketyl radical anion, leading to a highly nucleophilic dianionic (boraneylidene)methanolate. Computational analyses support the existence of a radical anion intermediate in this process.
The one-electron reduction of a cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene (CAAC)-stabilized arylborylene carbonyl complex yields a dimeric borylketyl radical anion, resulting from an intramolecular aryl migration to the CO carbon atom. Computational analyses support the existence of a [(CAAC)B(CO)Ar](.-) radical anion intermediate. Further reduction leads to a highly nucleophilic dianionic (boraneylidene)methanolate.
