Carbene and N-phosphinoamidinate stabilized diboron derivatives for catalytic hydroboration

This thesis primarily describes the development of carbene and N-phosphinoamidinate stabilized low-valent diboron species, such as diborane, diborene, diborene cation and borylborylene and the investigation of their small molecules activation and catalysis applications.
