Clusters of the main group elements phosphorus and arsenic, commonly categorized as Zintl clusters, have been known for over a century. And, only now is application these systems catalysts organic synthesis being investigated. In this work, boranes are tethered via an aliphatic linker to Zintl-based clusters their Lewis acidity examined experimentally, by Gutmann–Beckett test competency in hydroborative reduction six substrates, well computationally, fluoride ion affinity hydride methods. The effects tuning length, substituents at boron, changing cluster from seven-atom system arsenic on reactivity studied.
