The condensation of N,N′-bis(1-cyano-1-methylethyl)-N,N′-dihydroxymethanediamine and mesitylboronic acid gives 4,6-bis(1-cyano-1-methylethyl)-2-mesityl-1,3-dioxa-4,6-diaza-2-boracyclohexane in good yield. Crystals of the latter compound are orthorhombic, a = 15.825(1), b = 17.958(1), c = 14.014(1) Ǻ, Z = 8, space group Pbca. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.037 and Rw = 0.051 for 2844 reflections with 1 ≥ 3σ(I). The molecule has a six-membered cycloboronate structure featuring the first structurally characterized BONCNO ring. The ring was found to have a C-envelope conformation in the solid state.

The reaction of N,-dihydroxy-N-(1-hydroxycyclohexyl)methyl-2,2-diphenylacetamide with dimethyl ether-boron trifluoride gives 5,5-difluoro-2,2-pentamethylene-7,7-diphenyl-1,4,6-trioxa-3a-azonia-5-borata-2,3,4,5,6,7-hexahydroindene in nearly quantitative yield. Crystals of the product are triclinic, a = 9.4555(5), b = 9.9813(6), c = 10.5139(9) Å, α = 72.654(7), β = 77.140(5), γ = 88.542(6)°, Z = 2, space group [Formula: see text] The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.044 and Rw = 0.060 for 2971 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The molecule has a six-membered difluoroboron chelate structure, confirming that the regioselective alkylation of N-substituted hydroxamic acids under non-basic conditions leads to imidate N-oxides in cases where intramolecular alkylation occurs. Bond lengths (corrected for libration): (N)O—B = 1.530(3), (C)O—B = 1.451(2), F—B = 1.389(3) and 1.379(3) Å indicate relatively strong binding of the BF2+moiety by the O,O-chelating ligand.

(3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-4-pyridinonato)diphenylboron has been prepared in high yield by the reaction of 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(p-tolyl)-4-pyridinone with diphenylborinic acid. Crystals of the hemi-acetone solvate are triclinic, a = 15.119(2), b = 16.528(1), c = 9.5802(9) Å, α = 98.721(6), β = 93.344(8), γ = 102.443(6)°, Z = 4, space group [Formula: see text]. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.050 and Rw = 0.065 for 4330 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The five-membered chelate rings in both of the two crystallographically independent molecules have flattened B-envelope conformations (maximum deviations from the mean planes = 0.114(4) and 0.065(5) Å). Mean bond lengths O—B = 1.553 and C—B = 1.599 Å are consistent with intermediate strength binding of the diphenylboron moiety by the O,O-chelating ligand.

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.

The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.038 and Rw = 0.038 for 3501 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The molecule has a novel bis-six-membered binuclear chelate structure, the Ph2B moieties each being coordinated by (N)O and (C=)O oxygen atoms from different hydroxamate groups. The mean libration-corrected bond distances (C=)O—B, 1.587 Å, (N)O—B, 1.511 Å, and B—C, 1.602 Å, represent the weakest overall binding strength of an O,O-chelating ligand with respect to the Ph2B moiety yet observed for a six-membered O—B—O chelate. Keywords: crystal structure, boron compound, organoboron compound.
