Diazoalkanes react with a bis(phosphino)borate copper(I) source to generate [Ph2BPtBu2]Cu(1-N2CR2), [Ph2BPtBu2]Cu(CPh2), and [Ph2BPtBu2]Cu–N(CPh2)(NCPh2)

Neal P. Mankad and Jonas C. Peters

[Ph2BPtBu2]Cu–L complexes react with diazoalkanes to generate structurally unusual 1-diazoalkane adducts, a terminal carbene, and an 1-azine adduct.
