First example of B–C bond cleavage in the BArF (B[C6H3(CF3)2-3,5]4) anion mediated by a transition metal species, trans-[(Ph3P)2Pt(Me)(OEt2)]+

Abstract

The first example of transition metal-mediated decomposition of the widely used BArF anion (BArF = B[C6H3(CF3)2-3,5]4) has been accomplished by mild heating of the cationic platinum complex trans-[(Ph3P)2Pt(Me)(OEt2)]+(BArF) in low-coordinating solvents to form the diarylated product trans-(Ph3P)2Pt(ArF)2 in good yield, thus demonstrating that such non-interacting anions can react with electrophilic transition metal complexes.
