P1441 Potassium Tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)borohydride (3) 5g

The poly(pyrazolyl)borohydrides 1, 2 and 3 are the anionic pyrazolylborate ligands which form stable complexes with transition metal ions.1) In particular, 1 forms tetrahedral or square planar complexes with divalent metal ions. The complexes are soluble in organic solvents, and therefore 1 is used for the extraction of divalent metal ions.2) 2 and 3 are utilized as tridentate ligands for homogeneous metal complex catalyst which are used for regioselective hydrogenation of quinoline3a) and reduction of unactivated ketones.3b)
