Abstract

Various Salen ligands (Salen(tBu)H2 = N, N′-ethylenebis(3,5-di-tertbutyl(2-hydroxy)benzylidenimine) were used to prepare borosilyl and μ-O bridged borosilyl compounds having the formula, L{B(OSiMe3)2}2 (L = Salen(tBu) (1), Salpen(tBu) (2), Salben(tBu) (3), Salhen(tBu) (4) and L(BOSiMe3)2(μ-O) (L = Salen(tBu) (5) and Salben(tBu) (6)). In the case of 5 and 6 the formation of the B-O-B linkage takes precedence over the formation of a B-O-Si linkage. All of the compounds were characterized by Mp, elemental analysis, 1H and 11B NMR, IR, MS and in the case of 1, 2, and 6 by X-ray crystallography.
