- Copper-Catalyzed Monoorganylation of Trialkyl Borates with Functionalized Organozinc Pivalates
-
Organozinc pivalates, a recently developed air- and moisture-stable organozinc species, were found for the first time as excellent organometallic species in the monoorganylation of trialkyl borates whereby boronic acids were prepared in high yields. The significant advantage of organozinc pivalates over another previously employed organometallic reagents, e. g., organolithium reagents, Grignard reagents and organozinc halides, is that the generation of multiorganylation byproducts such as borinic acids and trialkylboranes were completely suppressed. Additionally, the in situ generated boronates could be directly arranged into Suzuki-Miyaura type cross-coupling reactions to produce biaryls in high yields.

- Preparation of acetals from aldehydes and alcohols under basic conditions
-
A new, simple protocol for the synthesis of acetals under basic conditions from non-enolizable aldehydes and alcohols has been reported. Such reactivity is facilitated by a sodium alkoxide along with a corresponding trifluoroacetate ester, utilizing formation of sodium trifluoroacetate as a driving force for acetal formation. The usefulness of this protocol is demonstrated by its orthogonality with various acid-sensitive protecting groups and by good compatibility with functional groups, delivering synthetically useful acetals complementarily to the synthesis under acidic conditions from aldehydes and alcohols.

- Palladium-Catalyzed ipso-Borylation of Aryl Sulfides with Diborons
-
A catalytic Miyaura-type ipso-borylation of aryl sulfides with diboron reagents has been achieved, providing arylboronate esters of synthetic use. The key conditions to transform inherently reluctant C-S bonds into C-B bonds include a palladium-NHC (N-heterocyclic carbene) precatalyst, bis(pinacolato)diboron, and lithium hexamethyldisilazide. This protocol is applicable to a reasonable range of aryl alkyl sulfides. Twofold borylation was observed in the reaction of diphenyl sulfide.

- Preparation and reactions of 4-iodobutyl pinacolborate. Synthesis of substituted alkyl and aryl pinacolboronates via 4-iodobutyl pinacolborate utilizing tetrahydrofuran as the leaving group
-
Iodine reacts with 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (HBpin), under ambient reaction conditions in THF, to form the iodoalkylborate species 2-(4-iodobutoxy)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (4-IboxBpin). Apparently, one-half equivalent of I2 reacts with HBpin to form IBpin in pentanes, which in turn cleaves THF to form the 4-IboxBpin. Alkyl and aryl Grignard reagents, prepared under Barbier conditions, then react with 4-IboxBpin to form the corresponding alkyl and aryl pinacolboronates while reforming and liberating THF as the leaving group.

- SYNTHESIS OF BORONIC ESTERS AND BORONIC ACIDS USING GRIGNARD REAGENTS
-
Boronic esters and boronic acids are synthesized at ambient temperature in an ethereal solvent by the reaction of Grignard reagents with a boron-containing substrate. The boron-containing substrate may be a boronic ester such as pinacolborane, neopentylglycolborane, or a dialkylaminoborane compound such as diisopropylaminoborane. The Grignard reagents may be preformed or generated from an alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, arylalkyl, heteroaryl, vinyl, or allyl halide compound and Mg°. When the boron-containing substrate is a boronic ester, the reactions generally proceed at room temperature without added base in about 1 to 3 hours to form a boronic ester compound. When the boron-containing substrate is a dialkylaminoborane compound, the reactions generally proceed to completion at 0°C in about 1 hour to form a boronic acid compound.

- Hydride as a leaving group in the reaction of pinacolborane with halides under ambient Grignard and Barbier conditions. One-pot synthesis of alkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, vinyl, and allyl pinacolboronic esters
-
Grignard reagents (aliphatic, aromatic, heteroaromatic, vinyl, or allylic) react with 1 equiv of 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (pinacolborane, PinBH) at ambient temperature in tetrahydrofuran (THF) to afford the corresponding pinacolboronates. The initially formed dialkoxy alkylborohydride intermediate quickly eliminates hydridomagnesium bromide (HMgBr) and affords the product boronic ester in very good yield. Hydridomagnesium bromide (HMgBr) in turn disproportionates to a 1:1 mixture of magnesium hydride (MgH2) and magnesium bromide (MgBr2) on addition of pentane to the reaction mixture. DFT calculations (Gaussian09) at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory show that disproportionation of HMgBr to MgH2 and MgBr2 is viable in the coordinating ethereal solvents. This reaction also can be carried out under Barbier conditions, where the neat PinBH is added to the flask prior to the in situ formation of Grignard reagent from the corresponding organic halide and magnesium metal. Pinacolboronic ester synthesis under Barbier conditions does not give Wurtz coupling side products from reactive halides, such as benzylic and allylic halides. The reaction between PinBH and various Grignard reagents is an efficient, mild, and general method for the synthesis of pinacolboronates.
