Complexation of Boron and Aluminum with a Bidentate Hydroxy-BN-naphthalene Ligand

The isoelectronic relationship of 1,2-azaborinine (B=N structural motif) and benzene (C=C) is well documented. Upon deprotonation of the former, the anionic 1,2-azaboratabenzene is obtained, which is isosteric with pyridine (C=N) and has a similar capability as an aromatic <i>N</i>-donor...
