Pyrimidine (C 4 H 4 N 2; / p ɪ ˈ r ɪ. m ɪ ˌ d iː n, p aɪ ˈ r ɪ. m ɪ ˌ d iː n /) is an aromatic, heterocyclic, organic compound similar to pyridine (C 5 H 5 N). [3] One of the three diazines (six-membered heterocyclics with two nitrogen atoms in the ring), it has nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3 in the ring.
Boranes are chemical compounds of boron and hydrogen, with the generic formula of B x H y. These compounds do not occur in nature. Many of the boranes readily oxidise on contact with air, some violently. The parent member BH 3 is called borane, but it is known only in the gaseous state, and dimerises to form diborane, B 2 H 6. The larger ...
The general structure of a boronic acid, where R is a substituent. A boronic acid is an organic compound related to boric acid (B(OH) 3) in which one of the three hydroxyl groups (−OH) is replaced by an alkyl or aryl group (represented by R in the general formula R−B(OH) 2). [1]
The reaction of boron trichloride with alcohols was reported in 1931, and was used to prepare dimethoxyboron chloride, B(OCH 3) 2 Cl. [3] Egon Wiberg and Wilhelm Ruschmann used it to prepare tetrahydroxydiboron by first introducing the boron–boron bond by reduction with sodium and then hydrolysing the resulting tetramethoxydiboron, B 2 (OCH 3) 4, to produce what they termed sub-boric acid.

Compounds of the type BR n (OR) 3-n are called borinic esters (n = 2), boronic esters (n = 1), and borates (n = 0). Boronic acids are key to the Suzuki reaction. Trimethyl borate, debatably not an organoboron compound, is an intermediate in sodium borohydride production.
Borinic acid, also known as boronous acid, is an oxyacid of boron with formula H 2 BOH. Borinate is the associated anion of borinic acid with formula H 2 BO −; however, being a Lewis acid, the form in basic solution is H 2 B(OH) − 2. Borinic acid can be formed as the first step in the hydrolysis of diborane: [1] BH 3 + H 2 O → H 2 BOH + H 2
Phenylboronic acid or benzeneboronic acid, abbreviated as PhB(OH) 2 where Ph is the phenyl group C 6 H 5 - and B(OH) 2 is a boronic acid containing a phenyl substituent and two hydroxyl groups attached to boron. Phenylboronic acid is a white powder and is commonly used in organic synthesis.
A pyridinecarboxylic acid is any member of a group of organic compounds which are monocarboxylic derivatives of pyridine. Pyridinecarboxylic acid comes in three isomers: Picolinic acid (2-pyridinecarboxylic acid) Nicotinic acid (3-pyridinecarboxylic acid), also known as Niacin; Isonicotinic acid (4-pyridinecarboxylic acid)
