Review
On the concept of frustrated Lewis pairs.
Philosophical Transactions. Series A, Mathematical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences 2017 August 29
In this concept article, we consider the notion of 'frustrated Lewis pairs' (FLPs). While the original use of the term referred to steric inhibition of dative bond formation in a Lewis pair, work in the intervening decade demonstrates the limitation of this simplistic view. Analogies to known transition metal chemistry and the applications in other areas of chemistry are considered. In the light of these findings, we present reflections on the criteria for a definition of the term 'frustrated Lewis pair'. Segregation of the Lewis acid and base and the kinetic nature of FLP reactivity are discussed. We are led to the conclusion that, while an all-inclusive definition of FLP is challenging, the notion of 'FLP chemistry' is more readily recognized.This article is part of the themed issue 'Frustrated Lewis pair chemistry'.
