Abstract
The reactions between equimolecular amounts of 4-bromophenylboronic acid and di-tertbutylsilanediol or tert-butylsilanetriol in toluene solutions at reflux temperatures afforded the borosilicate ring compound [(4-BrC6H4B)O2Si(t-Bu)2] 2 (1), and the cube-based species [(t-BuSi)4(4-BrC6H4B)4O 10] (2), in medium (62%) and low (13%) yields, respectively. These compounds were characterised by microanalysis, IR and NMR (1H, 11B, 13C and 29Si) spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray crystallography. During the work-up of 2, a sample of the boroxine, [(4-BrC6H4BO)3] (3), was isolated and was characterised by single crystal diffraction.
