title: Formation of azaborines by photoelimination of B,N-heterocyclic compounds.
abstract: Highly fluorescent π-conjugated polycyclic azaborines can be prepared from B,N-heterocyclic compounds with a BR2 -CH2 unit through the elimination of an R-H molecule (see scheme). These clean photoelimination reactions occur both in solution and in polymers doped with the precursors.
