Bis(pinacolato)diboron
Encyclopedia
Bisdiboron is a boron
containing two pinacol
ato ligands. This compound may be prepared by reacting tetrakis(dimethylamino)diboron with pinacol
in acidic conditions. This compound is a commercially-available starting material useful for making Pinacol boronic esters for organic synthesis.
Boron
Boron is the chemical element with atomic number 5 and the chemical symbol B. Boron is a metalloid. Because boron is not produced by stellar nucleosynthesis, it is a low-abundance element in both the solar system and the Earth's crust. However, boron is concentrated on Earth by the...
