Heterolytic activation of hydrogen using frustrated Lewis pairs containing tris(2,2',2''-perfluorobiphenyl)borane.

The extremely sterically hindered borane tris(2,2',2''-perfluorobiphenyl)borane (PBB) has been structurally characterised. In combination with bulky nitrogen bases, it forms the 'frustrated Lewis pairs' (FLPs) PBB/2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine (TMP) (1), PBB/1,4-diazobicyclo...
