A modular synthesis of both difurooxa‐and difuroazadiborepins from a common precursor is
demonstrated. Starting from 2, 2′‐bifuran, after protection of the positions 5 and 5'with …

Access to dithiophene‐fused oxadiborepins and the first azadiborepins attained via a
modular synthesis route are presented. The new compounds emit intense blue light, some of …

Oligoynes and polyynes are 1D chains of conjugated sp‐hybridized carbon atoms
consisting of alternating single and triple bonds. Their stability rapidly decreases with …

A facile and versatile approach was developed to access ambipolar boron‐containing
macrocycles. Two examples of new conjugated cyclic motifs are presented with carbazole …

The first examples of cis-configured diborenes–and the first cyclic diborenes–are isolated by
taking advantage of stabilisation by chelating diphosphine ligands. The diborenes are …

Through a combination of rational design and synthetic serendipity, two new structural
isomers of the dithienoborepin (DTB) architecture have been realized. Unlike previous …

A rapid synthetic route for polyarylated boron-dipyrromethenes using hexabromo boron-
dipyrromethene as the key synthon is described. The X-ray structure revealed that the …

Conjugated boron heterocycles have emerged as attractive synthetic targets due to their
potential in medicinal chemistry and as electronic materials. However, the development of …

A series of polycyclic thiophene-fused boroles were synthesized on the basis of stepwise
substitution reactions from thienylboronic ester precursors. In these ladder-type π …

We have exploited the reactivity of antiaromatic boroles, gaining access to aryl‐substituted
monocyclic 1, 2‐azaborinines. The observed ring‐expansion reaction of inherently electron …
