Journal ArticleDOI
Reversible Metal-Free Carbon Dioxide Binding by Frustrated Lewis Pairs
Cornelia M. Mömming,Edwin Otten,Gerald Kehr,Roland Fröhlich,Stefan Grimme,Douglas W. Stephan,Gerhard Erker +6 more
TL;DR: Frustrated Lewis pairs comprising phosphine and borane react to reversibly bind and release CO2, offering a rare example of metal-free CO2 sequestration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid intramolecular heterolytic dihydrogen activation by a four-membered heterocyclic phosphane-borane adduct.
Patrick Spies,Gerhard Erker,Gerald Kehr,Klaus Bergander,Roland Fröhlich,Stefan Grimme,Douglas W. Stephan +6 more
TL;DR: A four-membered cyclic intramolecular phosphane-borane adduct activates dihydrogen to yield the respective ethylene-bridged zwitterionic phosphonium-hydridoborate system, which reduces benzaldehyde.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal-free catalytic hydrogenation of enamines, imines, and conjugated phosphinoalkenylboranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lewis Acid Properties of Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane. Structure and Bonding in L−B(C6F5)3 Complexes⊥
Heiko Jacobsen,Heinz Berke,Steve Döring,Gerald Kehr,Gerhard Erker,Roland Fröhlich† and,Oliver Meyer +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a variety of donor adducts of tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane were experimentally generated by reaction of a Lewis base with an excess of B(C6F5)3 in pentane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linear Alkane Polymerization on a Gold Surface
Dingyong Zhong,Jörn-Holger Franke,Santhosh Kumar Podiyanachari,Tobias Blömker,Hai-Ming Zhang,Gerald Kehr,Gerhard Erker,Harald Fuchs,Lifeng Chi +8 more
TL;DR: This work reports the highly selective carbon-hydrogen (C–H) activation and subsequent dehydrogenative C–C coupling reaction of long-chain (>C20) linear alkanes on an anisotropic gold(110) surface, which undergoes an appropriate reconstruction by adsorption of the molecules and subsequent mild annealing, resulting in nanometer-sized channels.
