Bifunctional Brnsted base-assisted boronic acid catalysts, arylboronic acids bearing two sterically bulky (N,N-dialkylamino)methyl groups at the 2,6-positions, exhibit remarkable activities for the dehydrative intramolecular condensation of dicarboxylic acids. The steric bulkiness of the (N,N-dialkylamino)methyl groups of 1, which prevents the formation of less active species such as the N→B chelated species and triarylboroxines 3, is crucial for the high catalytic activity. This is the first successful method for the catalytic dehydrative self-condensation of di-and tetracarboxylic acids.

When phthalic acid is heated in heptane under azeotropic reflux conditions in the presence of a catalytic amount of an arylboronic acid compound (such as 2,6-(diisopropylaminomethyl)phenylboronic acid or 2,6-bis(diisopropylaminomethyl)phenylboronic acid), phthalic anhydride is obtained in high yield.
