Lewis acidic boranes in frustrated Lewis pair chemistry

From their inception, boron-based frustrated Lewis pairs have garnered significant scientific attention thanks to the multitude of potential applications they can be employed in. The ever-expanding library of halogenated triarylboranes has enabled this interest to flourish. In this chapter, we explore the significant breakthroughs that have been achieved in the use of triarylboranes in frustrated Lewis pair chemistry including borane synthesis, water tolerance and chirality
