Structure description

The field of cooperative catalysis has given scientists the ability to access more complex mol­ecular transformations using cheaper, readily available metals (Allen et al., 2012[Allen, A. E. & MacMillan, D. W. C. (2012). Chem. Sci. 3, 633-658.]; Lohr & Marks, 2015[Lohr, T. L. & Marks, T. J. (2015). Nat. Chem. 7, 477-482.]). The title compound, C40H36B2N4O5, was synthesized using elements from the main group of the periodic table, which are cheaper and more accessible than the traditionally used transition metals (Karunananda et al., 2017[Karunananda, M. K. & Mankad, N. P. (2017). ACS Catal. 7, 6110-6119.]; Power, 2010[Power, P. P. (2010). Nature, 463, 171-177.]).

The title compound has a pincer-like orientation formed by an oxygen single-atom bridge connected to two Lewis-acidic boron centers (Fig. 1[link]). The di­amine moieties bound to the boron atoms provide redox-active sites, which give the structure the electron equivalents that boron lacks while also modulating the steric environment (Prier et al., 2013[Prier, C. K., Rankic, D. A. & MacMillan, D. W. C. (2013). Chem. Rev. 113, 5322-5363.]; Pye et al., 2017[Pye, D. R. & Mankad, N. P. (2017). Chem. Sci. 8, 1705-1718.]; Bellemin-Laponnaz et al., 2014[Bellemin-Laponnaz, S. & Dagorne, S. (2014). Chem. Rev. 114, 8747-8774.]). The pincer shape might allow the compound to use the boron atoms and the redox-active ligands to create a binding pocket for coordination and bridging of a small mol­ecule substrate.

The B1A—O1—B1B bond angle is 132.75 (13)°, which is reasonable given the steric bulk that is present in the di­aza­borole moiety. Additionally, it is likely that a p-type electronic inter­action exists between O1 and the adjacent boron atoms (B1A and B1B) that would serve to open up the bond angle substanti­ally beyond the textbook angle of 109.5° for an O atom bearing two lone pairs of electrons. As a result of steric encumbrance, the B1A and B1B benzodi­aza­borole rings are angled away from one another to a near perpendicular orientation, with a plane-to-plane tilt of 73.02 (5)°. The dihedral angles between the B1A benzodi­aza­borole ring system and its pendant p-meth­oxy­benzene rings are 80.49 (6) and 49.84 (7)° for the C7A and C14A rings, respectively. Comparable data for the B1B ring system and its pendant C7B and C14B rings are 78.32 (6) and 65.96 (7)°, respectively. The C atoms of the meth­oxy groups are all close to their respective ring planes: C13A [deviation = 0.333 (2) Å]; C20A [0.254 (2) Å]; C13B [−0.040 (2 Å)]; C20B [0.193 (2) Å].

In the crystal, weak C—H⋯O inter­actions (Table 1[link]) link the mol­ecules.

Synthesis and crystallization

The title compound was synthesized in two steps (Fig. 2[link]) from the previously reported precursor, N1,N2-bis­(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)benzene-1,2-di­amine (Xiong et al., 2018[Xiong, M., Gao, Z., Liang, X., Cai, P., Zhu, H. & Pan, Y. (2018). Chem. Commun. 54, 9679-9682.]; Wang et al., 2018[Wang, Z., Chen, X., Xie, H., Wang, D., Huang, H. & Deng, G.-J. (2018). Org. Lett. 20, 5470-5473.]).

[Figure 2]

Chemical scheme for the synthesis of the title compound.

Under an anhydrous nitro­gen atmosphere, 12 mmol of the di­amine precursor was dissolved in 400 ml of diethyl ether. An excess of tri­ethyl­amine, four equivalents, was then added. A stoichiometric amount of boron trichloride was added to this stirred solution whereupon a white precipitate composed of a mixture of tri­ethyl­ammonium chloride and the monomeric di­aza­borole chloride was formed. The volatiles were removed under reduced pressure to give a white solid. The solid was extracted in a fritted glass filter with a minimum volume of benzene, and the filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure to give the crude di­aza­borole chloride. This crude solid was recrystallized from a toluene/hexa­nes mixture. The di­aza­borole chloride, (II), was obtained in 87% yield. The single-crystal X-ray structure of the di­aza­borole chloride has been deposited with the Cambridge Structural Database (Mallard et al., 2020[Mallard, H. H., Anstey, M. R., Kennedy, N. D., Rudman, N. A., Greenwood, A. M., Angle, C. E., Nicoleau, J., Torquato, N. A., Gau, M. R. & Carroll, P. J. (2020). CSD Communication (refcode CCDC 2015021). CCDC, Cambridge, England.]).

Under an anhydrous nitro­gen atmosphere, a solution was prepared that contained 3.0 mmol of (II), four equivalents of tri­ethyl­amine, and ∼200 ml of 1,2-di­meth­oxy­ethane. This solution was then treated with half an equivalent of water (used as a 1 M solution in 1,2-di­meth­oxy­ethane). After stirring overnight, a white precipitate of the tri­ethyl­ammonium chloride formed that was then filtered and discarded. The filtrate was dried under reduced pressure to give the crude product. The solid was extracted in a fritted glass filter with a minimum volume of benzene, and the filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure to give the title compound in 85% yield.

Single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained from a saturated solution of hexa­nes. The solution was allowed to stand overnight whereupon small colorless crystals formed.

Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 2[link]. A small number of intense low-angle reflections are missing from this data set due to the arrangement of the instrument with a conservatively sized beam stop. The large number of reflections in the data set ensures that no particular bias has been introduced.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. The hydrogen atoms were treated in calculated positions and refined in the riding model approximation with distances of C—H = 0.95 and 0.98 Å for the aryl and methyl groups, respectively. Methyl group H atoms were allowed to rotate, but not to tip, in order to find the best rotameric conformation.
