Out with the metal: Metal-free hydrogenation of unfunctionalized olefins can be achieved by employing HB(C6F5)2 as the catalyst. The key step in the catalytic reaction is believed to involve a novel borane-mediated σ-bond metathesis, which has been investigated both experimentally and theoretically.
通过使用 HB(C6F5)2 作为催化剂，可以实现未官能化烯烃的无金属氢化。催化反应中的关键步骤据信涉及一种新型硼烷介导的 σ 键复分解，该过程已通过实验和理论进行了研究。
