Reversible Intramolecular C−C Bond Formation/Breaking and Color Switching Mediated by a N,C-Chelate in (2-ph-py)BMes2 and (5-BMes2-2-ph-py)BMes2
Ying-Li Rao,Hazem Amarne,Shu-Bin Zhao,Theresa M. McCormick,Sanela Martic,Yi Sun,Ruiyao Wang,Suning Wang +7 more
TL;DR: The N,C-chelate ligands in 1 and 2 were found to play a key role in promoting this unusual and reversible photo-thermal isomerization process on a tetrahedral boron center.

Enhancing Electron Accepting Ability of Triarylboron via π-Conjugation with 2,2‘-Bipy and Metal Chelation: 5,5‘-Bis(BMes2)-2,2‘-bipy and Its Metal Complexes
Yi Sun,Nicole Ross,Shu-Bin Zhao,Krista L. Huszarik,Wen-Li Jia,Ruiyao Wang,Donal H. Macartney,Suning Wang +7 more
TL;DR: The conjugation of the 2,2‘-bipy unit with the two BMes2 groups in 1 has been found to greatly enhance the electron-accepting ability of the boron centers, compared to the biphenyl analogue.

Conjugated triarylboryl donor-acceptor systems supported by 2,2'-bipyridine: metal chelation impact on intraligand charger transfer emission, electron accepting ability, and "turn-on" fluoride sensing.
Yi Sun,Suning Wang +1 more
TL;DR: To investigate the impact of metal-chelation on intraligand charge transfer emission involving a triarylboron group, three 2,2'-bipyridine derivative molecules have been synthesized, which can be described as donor-only, donor-acceptor, and acceptor-only systems.

Triarylboron-functionalized 8-hydroxyquinolines and their aluminium(III) complexes
TL;DR: The first examples of triarylboron-functionalized 8-hydroxyquinoline ligands and their aluminium complexes have been synthesized and display enhanced electron-accepting ability relative to Alq(3), and can also be used as an indicator for small F(-) and CN(-) anions.

Pt(2,2'-bpy)(O2CCF3)2 as a terminator for [Ag(O2CCF3)]n aggregates : Syntheses and structures of heterobimetallic PtIIAgI complexes
TL;DR: In this article, the reactions between Pt(2,2′-bpy) and Ag(O2CCF3)2 have been found to consistently produce heterobimetallic complexes where the [Pt(2 2,2,bpy)]2+ unit acts as a terminator for various [Ag(O 2...
