Reasonance Stabilization Energy of 1,2-Azaborines: A Quantitative Experimental Study of Reaction Calorimetry

Abstract

Aromatic and single-olefin six-membered BN heterocycles were synthesized, and the heats of hydrogenation were measured calorimetrically. A comparison of the hydrogenation enthalpies of these compounds revealed that 1,2-azaborines have a resonance stabilization energy of 16.6 1.3 kcal/mol, in good agreement with calculated values.
