This randomized trial evaluates the catalytic performance of borenium cations in chemical transformations, suggesting structural factors significantly influence their effectiveness.
. These borenium species were subsequently evaluated as catalysts in two model transformations-homocoupling of diazo derivatives and hydrosilylation of acetophenones. The markedly different catalytic behavior observed across the series highlights the decisive influence of the structural and electronic factors on the global Lewis acidity of the boron center and, consequently, on its catalytic performance.
