One-Pot Synthesis and Unpredicted Hydrogen Bonds of the Guanidinium Triflates from Readily Available Amines, Carbodiimides, and Zn(OTf)<sub>2</sub> Dongzhen Li Yang Wang Wen-Xiong Zhang Shaoguang Zhang Jie Guang Zhenfeng Xi 10.1021/om2006613.s001 https://acs.figshare.com/articles/journal_contribution/One_Pot_Synthesis_and_Unpredicted_Hydrogen_Bonds_of_the_Guanidinium_Triflates_from_Readily_Available_Amines_Carbodiimides_and_Zn_OTf_sub_2_sub_/2604766 The first synthesis of trisubstituted guanidinium triflates has been achieved by a simple one-step procedure from readily available amines, carbodiimides, and Zn(OTf)<sub>2</sub>. X-ray analysis revealed they adopt 1-D chain-like or novel 3-D hydrogen-bonded networks, which have not been reported previously in the solid structure of guanidinium salts. Isolation of a binuclear zinc complex and its subsequent carbodiimide insertion provide the insight into the mechanism for the formation of guanidinium triflates. 2011-10-10 00:00:00 guanidinium triflates carbodiimide insertion Available Amines Guanidinium Triflates Unpredicted Hydrogen Bonds Zn guanidinium salts trisubstituted guanidinium triflates
