A strategy for modulating the Lewis acidity of triarylboranes is proposed based on the concept of remote back strain. Steric repulsion and noncovalent interactions between the aryl meta-substituents are crucial for determining the strength of the remote back strain. The synthesized B[2,6-F-2-3,5-(TMS)(2)-C6H](3) and liquid B[2,6-F-2-3,5-(allyl)(2)-C6H](3) exhibit superior catalytic activity for the hydrogenation of quinoline compared to B(C6F5)3 or B(2,6-F2C6H3)(3). The first example of catalytic hydrogenation of quinoline using B[2,6-F-2-3,5-(allyl)(2)-C6H](3) in the presence of a gaseous 1:1:1 molar mixture of H-2, CO, and CO2 is demonstrated.
A strategy for modulating the Lewis acidity of triarylboranes is proposed based on the concept of remote back strain. Steric repulsion and noncovalent interactions, both generated between the aryl meta-substituents of triarylboranes, are found to be critical for determining the strength of the remote back strain. Applying this concept, we synthesized B[2,6-F-2-3,5-(TMS)(2)-C6H](3) and the liquid B[2,6-F-2-3,5-(allyl)(2)-C6H](3) and we demonstrated their superior catalytic activity for the hydrogenation of quinoline relative to B(C6F5)3 or B(2,6-F2C6H3)(3). Moreover, we established the first example of the catalytic hydrogenation of quinoline by using B[2,6-F-2-3,5-(allyl)(2)-C6H](3) in the presence of a gaseous 1:1:1 molar mixture of H-2, CO, and CO2.
