The scandocene alkyl complex(C_(5)Me_(5))_(2)ScCH_(2)SiMe_(3)was found to be an efficient catalyst for the dehydrocoupling of the non-cyclic boranes, dicyclohexylborane and thexylborane, with amines under mild conditi...The scandocene alkyl complex(C_(5)Me_(5))_(2)ScCH_(2)SiMe_(3)was found to be an efficient catalyst for the dehydrocoupling of the non-cyclic boranes, dicyclohexylborane and thexylborane, with amines under mild conditions. The reactions afforded the corresponding aminoboranes in high yields with good functional group tolerance. The stoichiometric reaction of scandium alkyl with amine led to the isolation of a scandium amide complex, which was shown to be an active species during the catalysis. Although a boranecoordinated scandium hydride was also obtained from the stoichiometric experiment, it was not involved in the catalytic cycle. In addition, kinetic studies provided insight into this intermolecular dehydrogenation reaction.展开更多
