Phosphorescence and Reactive Hydrides in the Main Group
In this presentation, two newer research ventures from our group will be discussed. To begin, the discovery of tellurophenes that exhibit rare phosphorescence in the solid state under ambient conditions will be described.1 Next the use of a general donor-acceptor protocol to intercept reactive main group hydrides, such as the parent iminoborane HBNH, will be discussed as a possible route to advanced materials (e.g. BN) under mild conditions.2
