The Activation of Small Molecules Employing Main Group and Transition Metal Frustrated Lewis Pairs
Combinations of sterically encumbered Lewis acids and Lewis bases are precluded from dative bond formation, failing to yield classical Lewis acid-base adducts. These unique systems are referred to as frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) and demonstrate a plethora of unique small molecule activations.Herei...
