Allyldiboran(4) derivatives la—c are obtained from allylmagnesium chloride and chloro derivatives of diboran(4). la—c are air-sensitive liquids; heating of le did not yield a 2,3-dihydro-l,2-diborole derivative (B). Reaction between 1,1-bis(dichloroboryl)-3,3-dimethyl-butane (5) and H2C=C(CH2SnMe3)2 (4) leads to the heat-sensitive chloro derivative 2a, in which the chlorine is substituted by Me3SiNMe2 to give stable 1,3-bis-dimethylamino-5-methylene-2-neopentyl- 1,3-diborinane (2 b). 1,2-Bis(dichloroboryl)benzene and 4 yield the chloro derivative 3a, and its substitution with HN(i-Pr)2 leads to 1,4-bis(diisopropylamino)-2,3-benzo-6-methylene-1,4,5,7-tetrahydro-1,4-diborepine (3 b). The X-ray structure analysis reveals a folded tetrahydro-1,4-diborepine ring.
