Abstract
Reactions of [L2Rh(acac)] (L = alkene or phosphine) with B(2)cat(3) yi eld the zwitterionic complexes [L2Rh(eta(6)-catBcat)] and [(acac)Bcat] cleanly; [(dppm)Rh(eta(6)-catBcat)], the X-ray structure of which is reported, is an excellent catalyst for the diboration of vinylarenes a nd unstrained internal alkenes cis- and trans-stilbene and trans-beta- methylstyrene.
