Mechanistic studies of the dehydrocoupling and dehydropolymerization of amine-boranes using a [Rh(Xantphos)]⁺ catalyst

<p style="text-align:justify;"> A detailed catalytic, stoichiometric, and mechanistic study on the dehydrocoupling of H3B·NMe2H and dehydropolymerization of H3B·NMeH2 using the [Rh(Xantphos)]+ fragment is reported. At 0.2 mol % catalyst loadings, dehydrocoupling produces dimeric [H2...
