Boronic acids are centrally important functional motifs and synthetic precursors. Visible light-induced borylation may provide access to structurally diverse boronates, but a broadly efficient photocatalytic borylation method that can effect borylation of a wide range of substrates, including strong C-O bonds, remains elusive. Herein, we report a general, metal-free visible light-induced photocatalytic borylation platform that enables borylation of electron-rich derivatives of phenols and anilines, chloroarenes, as well as other haloarenes. The reaction exhibits excellent functional group tolerance, as demonstrated by the borylation of a range of structurally complex substrates. Remarkably, the reaction is catalyzed by phenothiazine, a simple organic photocatalyst with MW 200 that mediates the previously unachievable visible light-induced single electron reduction of phenol derivatives with reduction potentials as negative as approximately - 3 V versus SCE by a proton-coupled electron transfer mechanism. Mechanistic studies point to the crucial role of the photocatalyst-base interaction.

A series of alkenyl phenylboronic acid pinacol esters has been synthesized via an olefin cross-metathesis reaction of vinylphenylboronic acid pinacol ester derivatives. After catalytic hydrogenation, the resulting boronates were coupled via a microwave-mediated Suzuki-Miyaura reaction to afford a library of biarylethyl aryl and biarylethyl cycloalkyl derivatives. A complementary reaction sequence involved an initial Suzuki-Miyaura coupling.
