Popis: The ratio of methyl group rearrangement to methyl group elimination during the photocyclization of anilinodimesitylborane is dependent upon the concentration of iodine present. At iodine concentrations of less than 10 −3 M , the major product is a demethylated borazarophenanthrene, 7,9-dimethyl-6-mesityldibenz[ ce ][1,2]-azaborine (IV). At concentrations of iodine above 5 × 10 −3 M , the major products is a methyl-rearranged borazarophenanthrene, 7,9,10-trimethyl-6mesityldibenz[ ce ][1,2]-azaborine (V). The role of iodine was at least threefold: assisting in the production of a reactive cation-radical at low iodine concentrations, quenching the formation of the cation-radical at higher iodine concentrations, and actively assisting at the higher concentrations in the formation of a reactive species.
