Side-product fraction from the reaction of pCp alcohol 3 with one equivalent of thiophenol
NMR, DOSY NMR, and SEC The analyses indicated that the side product was not a discrete compound, but an oligomeric mixture composed of pCp-derived units

Reaction of pCp alcohol 3 and thiophenol with BF₃·OEt₂
In-situ ¹H NMR spectroscopy The starting-material and product profiles displayed an induction period and sigmoidal kinetics
In-situ ¹H NMR spectroscopy with 0.35 equivalents of added water The induction period was effectively eliminated and both substrate consumption and product formation were accelerated

¹¹B and ¹⁹F NMR control series
pCp alcohol 3 with BF₃·OEt₂ (1:1), ¹¹B NMR δB = 0.05 ppm
pCp alcohol 3 with BF₃·OEt₂ (1:1), ¹⁹F NMR δF = −152.6 ppm
pCp alcohol 3 with BF₃·OEt₂ and H₂O (1:1:0.35), ¹¹B NMR δB = 0.01 and −1.01 ppm
pCp alcohol 3 with BF₃·OEt₂ and H₂O (1:1:0.35), ¹⁹F NMR δF = −150.5 and −153.5 ppm
Reaction mixture after 3 h, ¹¹B NMR δB = 0.01 and −1.01 ppm
Reaction mixture after 3 h, ¹⁹F NMR δF = −150.6 and −153.6 ppm
In-situ ¹¹B and ¹⁹F NMR spectroscopy The newly formed species was assigned to BF₃·H₂O and formed progressively over the course of the reaction
