Herein, a fast, scalable, and transition-metal-free borylation of alkyl halides (X = I, Br, Cl) enabled by electroreduction is reported. This process provides an efficient and practical access to primary, secondary, and tertiary boronic esters at a high current. More than 70 examples, including the late-stage borylation of natural products and drug derivatives, are furnished at room temperature, thereby demonstrating the broad utility and functional-group tolerance of this protocol. Mechanistic studies disclosed that B2cat2 serves as both a reagent and a cathodic mediator, enabling electroreduction of difficult-to-reduce alkyl bromides or chlorides at a low potential.

Metal catalyst free, blue visible light-induced C-O bond borylation of unactivated tertiary alkyl methyl oxalates has been developed to furnish tertiary alkyl boronates. From the secondary alcohols activated with imidazolylthionyl, moderate yields of boronates were attained under standard photo-induced conditions. Preliminary mechanistic studies confirmed the involvement of a (DMF)2-B2cat2 adduct that weakly absorbs light at 437 nm so as to initiate a Bcat radical. A radical-chain process is proposed wherein the alkyl radical is engaged. This journal is

Vicinal diboration of alkyl bromides via tandem catalysis is reported. The reported reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope, good functional group compatibility, and regioselectivity. Moreover, it shows good practicality due to the easy accessibility of alkyl bromides in combination with diverse transformations of diboronates. Mechanism study indicates that terminal alkenes are generated selectively through nickel-catalyzed dehydrohalogenation of alkyl bromides followed by base/MeOH promoted diboration process to provide 1,2-diboration products.
