Reactivity of a Soft Indium‐Based Frustrated Lewis Pair Towards Alkynes

The geminal pyridine stabilized frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) t Bu 2 In(py)CH 2 P t Bu 2 ( 1 ·py) was reacted with various alkynes. 1 ·py does not react with PhC≡CH, however, it does with the unsymmetrically substituted PhC≡CSiMe 3 and p‐ Br‐C 6 H 4 C≡CSiMe 3 under reversible forma...
