Details of the synthesis, physical properties, and molecular structures of 4,4-dimethyl-2,5,5-triphenyl-1,3-dioxa-4-azonia-2-bora-5-boratacyclopentane, 4, and 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2,2-diphenyl-1,3-dioxa-4-azonia-2-boratacyclopentane, 5, are reported. Crystals of 4 are triclinic, a = 9.841(2), b = 14.722(3), c = 6.6701(12) Å, α = 86.79(1), β = 102.95(1), γ = 93.89(1)°, Z = 2, space group [Formula: see text]; and those of 5 are monoclinic, a = 14.9164(12), b = 6.4732(3), c = 18.2248(15) Å, β = 117.263(3)°, Z = 4, space group Cc. Both structures were solved by direct methods and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to final R values of 0.032 and 0.035 for 1456 and 1649 observed reflections, respectively. Molecules of 4 contain non-planar BOBON rings with an unusually long N(sp3)—B(sp3) distance of 1.728(3) Å and in 5 there is a long N(sp3)—C(sp3) bond of 1.591(3) Å. These structural features are ascribed to steric hindrance.

All three structures were solved by direct methods and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to final R values of 0.038. 0.031, and 0.040 for 1522, 1649, and 2420 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I) respectively. Each structure contains a tetrahedrally coordinated boron atom. The libration-corrected B—O, B—N, and mean B—C distances are: 1.481(2), 1.643(3), and 1.623(3) Å for (3-aminopropanolato)diphenylboron; 1.476(2), 1.691 (2), and 1.625(7) Å for (2-N,N-dimethylaminoethanolato)diphenylboron.

There are two crystalline modifications of (acetylacetonato)diphenylboron: triclinic, a = 8.3557(8), b = 9.3519(8), c = 9.6103(9) Å, α = 96.094(5), β = 94.904(6), γ = 93.489(6)°, Z = 2, space group [Formula: see text], and monoclinic, a = 11.6329(11), b = 17.1628, c = 7.6542(6) Å, β = 97.669(4)°, Z = 4, space group P21/c. Crystals of (tropolonato)diphenylboron are monoclinic, a = 12.1596(5), b = 10.2614(4), c = 12.4883(6) Å, β = 100.965(2)°, Z = 4, space group P21/c. All three structures were solved by direct methods and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R values of 0.046, 0.041, and 0.035 for 2465, 2124, and 1722 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I) respectively. Each structure consists of discrete molecules containing tetrahedrally coordinated boron atoms, both the acetylacetonato and tropolonato moieties being delocalized and symmetric. The chelate rings in both forms of (acetylacetonato)-diphenylboron have distorted B-envelope conformations while the chelate ring in (tropolonato)diphenylboron is essentially planar. The mean B—O and B—C distances (corrected for libration) are: 1.543(4) and 1.605(4) Å in triclinic, 1.533(3) and 1.607(4) Å in monoclinic (acetylacetonato)diphenylboron, and 1.555(11) and 1.605(6) Å in (tropolonato)diphenylboron.

The crystal structures of 2,2-diphenyl-1,3-dioxa-3a-azonia-2-borataindan, 6a, and 4-cyclohexyl-6-methyl-2,2-diphenyl-1,3-dioxa-3a-azonia-2-borataindan, 6b, reported here represent the first crystallographic examples of coordination complexes of the anionic ligand derived from 2-hydroxypyridine N-oxide. Crystals of 6a are monoclinic, a = 11.5210(13), b = 10.2860(8), c = 12.7354(15) Å, β = 101.878(5)°, Z = 4, space group P21/c; and those of 6b are monoclinic, a = 8.5047(8), b = 15.6603(14), c = 16.0501(18) Å, β = 104.776(5)°, Z = 4, space group P21/n. Both structures were solved by direct methods and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to final R values of 0.039 and 0.042 for 1440 and 1750 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I), respectively. Both molecules feature tetrahedrally coordinated boron atoms incorporated into five-membered OBOCN chelate rings which have B-envelope conformations. The observed molecular geometries indicate that the ligand may be classed as a hybrid of the 2-hydroxypyridine N-oxide and 1-hydroxy-2-pyridinone tautomers of the parent alcohol. Important bond lengths (corrected for libration) are: O—B = 1.557(3)−1.580(3), mean C—B = 1.600(4), C—O = 1.316(3), and N—O = 1.389(3) Å.

Crystals of 3-(phenylmethylidene)-4-methyl-1-phenyl-2,6,7-trioxa-3-azonia-1-boratabicyclo[2.2.2]octane are orthorhombic, a = 8.0732(7), b = 11.8499(10), c = 31.679(2) Å, Z = 8, space group Pbca, and those of N-(4-nitrophenylmethylidene)-5-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxa-2-bora-5-cyclohexaneamine N-oxide are monoclinic, a = 6.1873(6), b = 23.206(2), c = 11.3081(11) Å, β = 92.326(5)°, Z = 4, space group P21/n. Both structures were solved by direct methods and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to final R values of 0.041 and 0.036 for 943 and 1679 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I), respectively. Both compounds are condensation products of bis(hydroxyalkyl)nitrones and phenylboronic acid. 3-(Phenyl-methylidene)-4-methyl-1-phenyl-2,6,7-trioxa-3-azonia-1-boratabicyclo[2.2.2]octane was found to possess a bicyclic structure resulting from intramolecular O → B coordination (O—B = 1.604(7) Å) and is the first such bicyclic boron compound to be structurally characterized. In N-(4-nitrophenylmethylidene)-5-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxa-2-bora-5-cyclohexaneamine N-oxide, which has weakened nitrone basicity, the O → B interaction does not occur, resulting in a monocyclic system incorporating a trigonal planar boron atom.

Both structures were solved by direct methods and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.034 and 0.034 for 1974 and 1478 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I), respectively. The molecular structures are discussed in terms of the thermally-induced 1,2-migration of B-substituents by which 3 is converted to 4. Keywords: crystal structures, boron compounds, organoboron compounds.

Both structures were solved by direct methods and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.045 and 0.042 for 2344 and 4248 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I), respectively. The molecules were both found to possess a seven-membered chelate structure, the O,O-chelatїng ligand being strongly bound to the X2B moiety. Two conformational isomers of the X = Ph compound were found in the solid state. The 2-oxazoline N-oxide moieties present in both compounds are the first to be structurally characterized. Important mean libration-corrected bond lengths are: O—B = 1.491 and F—B = 1.387 Å for X = F; O—B = 1.511 and C—B = 1.620 Å for X = Ph.

In both structures the N,N-dialkylsalicylamidate ligands coordinate the diphenylboron moieties via the phenolate oxygen and amide oxygen atoms, forming six-membered O—B—O chelate rings. The O(ar)—B, O(amide)—B, and mean C—B bond lengths (corrected for libration) are as follows: 1.490(3), 1.549(4), and 1.612 Å for 4 and 1.494(2), 1.550(2), and 1.612 Å for 9. Keywords: crystal structures, boron compounds, organoboron compounds.
