Investigations revealed that the conversion of C-H bonds to C-B bonds was both thermodynamically and kinetically favorable. The reaction at a primary C-H bond of methane or a higher alkene B 2(OR)4 formed an alkylboronate ester R' -B(OR)2 and the accompanying borane H-B(OR2. The ester and the borane were formed on the basis of calculated bond energies for methylboronates and dioaborolanes. The rates of key steps along the reaction pathway for the conversion of a C-H bond in an alkane or arene to the C-B bond in an alkyl or arylboronate ester were favorable. These studies also highlighted the accessible barriers for C-H bond cleavage and B-C bond formation during the borylation of alkanes and arenes.  ISSN : 00092665  Journal Name : Chemical Reviews  Volume : 110  Issue Number : 2  Publishing Year : 1431 AH 2010 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Tuesday, April 13, 2010  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email إبراهيم أحمد مخالد Mkhalid, Ibraheem Ahmad Researcher Doctorate imkhalid@kau.edu.sa J H Barnard Barnard, J H Researcher Doctorate   T B Marder Marder, T B Researcher     J M Murphy Murphy, J M Researcher Doctorate   J F Hartwig Hartwig, J F Researcher     Files File Name Type Description  26471.pdf pdf Abstract Back To Researches Page
