Abstrakt: Reactions of the diborane(4) B 2 (o-tolyl) 4 and monohydridoboranes are shown to give B(o-tolyl) 3 and (o-tolyl)BR 2 (R 2 =(C 8 H 14 ) 3, cat 4, pin 5, (C 6 F 5 ) 2 6) as the major products. The corresponding reaction with BH 3 -sources gives complex mixtures, resulting from hydride/aryl exchange, dimerization and borane elimination. This led to the isolation of the first tetra-substituted pentaborane(9) HB[B(o-tolyl)(μ-H)] 4 8. The reaction pathways are probed experimentally and by computations.
