[2 + 2]-Cyclocondensation reactions led to the synthesis of the 1,2-di
phospha-3,4-diboretanes [(t-BuP)(2)B-2(NMe(2))(2)], 1a, and [(t-BuP)(2
)B(NMe(2))B(NiPr2)]. Their molecular structures have been determined b
y X-ray methods, and these are compared with the structure of [(t-Bu)P
-BN(iPr(2))](2), 2a. Compounds 1 show a folded B2P2 four membered ring
having tert.-butyl groups in anti-positions. Ab initio calculations o
n 1,2-diphospha-3,4-diboretanes demonstrate that two conformers with a
nti-orientation of the substituents at the phosphorus atoms can be exp
ected. These differ by the relative orientation of the almost planar P
(2)BR groups to the BP2 plane. The influence of substituents (H and NH
2 at the B atoms, and H and Me at the P atoms) on the ring conformatio
n has been studied. Finally, the first derivative of a 1,3-diphospha-2
,4,5-triborolane, 3a, is reported.
