Abstrakt: The ansa-aminohydroborane 1-NMe2 -2-(BH2 )C6 H4 crystallizes in an unprecedented type of dimer containing a B-H bond activated by one FLP moiety. Upon mild heating and without the use of any catalyst, this molecule liberates one equivalent of hydrogen to generate a diborane molecule. The synthesis and structural characterization of these new compounds, as well as the kinetic monitoring of the reaction and the DFT investigation of its mechanism, are reported.
