Abstract

Charge separation in the reference molecules is the main reason for the unusually high aromatic stabilization energies (ASEs) of nonclassical 1-sila-3,4-diboracyclopentanes of type 1. Compound 1 a was synthesized, and the ASE for its model compound 1 b was computed. In reference molecule 2 the two electrons, which are cyclically delocalized in 1 b, are localized in a BB bond (R=SiMe3, Dur=2,3,5,6-tetramethylphenyl).
