Examining the reactivity of oxygen-bridged intramolecular group 13 element/phosphorus and boron/group 15 element frustrated Lewis pairs in 1,2-addition reactions with CS₂

Our computational findings indicate that only oxygen-bridged intramolecular B/P-Rea, Al/P-Rea, Ga/P-Rea, and In/P-Rea FLPs can promote the 1,2-addition reaction with CS₂, both kinetically and thermodynamically.
