The site-selective modification of polyols bearing several hydroxyl groups without the use of protecting groups remains a significant challenge in synthetic chemistry. To address this problem, novel benzoxaborole derivatives were designed as efficient catalysts for the highly site-selective and protecting-group-free modification of polyols. To identify the effective substituent groups enhancing the catalytic activity and selectivity, a series of benzoxaborole catalysts 1a–k were synthesized. In-depth analysis for the substituent effect revealed that 1i–k, bearing multiple electron-withdrawing fluoro- and trifluoromethyl groups, exhibited the greatest catalytic activity and selectivity. Moreover, 1i-catalyzed benzoylation, tosylation, benzylation, and glycosylation of various cis-1,2-diol derivatives proceeded with good yield and site-selective manner.

Synthetic and mechanistic aspects of the diarylborinic acid-catalyzed regioselective monofunctionalization of 1,2- and 1,3-diols are presented. Diarylborinic acid catalysis is shown to be an efficient and general method for monotosylation of pyranoside derivatives bearing three secondary hydroxyl groups (7 examples, 88% average yield). In addition, the scope of the selective acylation, sulfonylation, and alkylation is extended to 1,2- and 1,3-diols not derived from carbohydrates (28 examples); the efficiency, generality, and operational simplicity of this method are competitive with those of state-of-the-art protocols including the broadly applied organotin-catalyzed or -mediated reactions. Mechanistic details of the organoboron-catalyzed processes are explored using competition experiments, kinetics, and catalyst structure-activity relationships. These experiments are consistent with a mechanism in which a tetracoordinate borinate complex reacts with the electrophilic species in the turnover-limiting step of the catalytic cycle.

This paper describes a convenient protocol for the regioselective sulfonylation of α-chelatable alcohols. Typically, the reaction of α-heterosubstituted alcohols with 1 equiv of p-TsCl and 1 equiv of Et3N in the presence of 2 mol % of Bu2SnO leads to rapid, regioselective, and exclusive monotosylation. The pKa of the amine was correlated to the reaction rate. A plausible mechanism for this reaction has been proposed on the basis of 119Sn NMR studies.
