Here, we report an efficient rhodium-catalyzed deoxygenative borylation of ketones to synthesize alkylboronates, in which the regioselectivity can be switched by the choice of the ligand. The linear alkylboronates were obtained exclusively in the presence of P(nBu)3, and PPh2Me favored the formation of branched alkylboronates. The protocol also allows access to 1,1,2-triboronates from the readily available ketones. Mechanistic studies suggest that this Rh-catalyzed deoxygenative borylation of ketones goes through an alkene intermediate, which undergoes regiodivergent hydroboration to afford linear and branched alkylboronates. The different steric effects of PPh2Me and P(nBu)3 were found to be responsible for product selectivity by density functional theory calculations. The alkene intermediate can alternatively undergo sequential dehydrogenative borylation and hydroboration to deliver the triboronates.

Exchange of boryl moieties between alkenylboranes and diboron reagents has been postulated as a stereospecific cross-metathesis pathway with concomitant formation of mixed diboron reagents. DFT calculations propose a mechanism for the stereocontrolled C(sp2)-B/B′-B′ cross-metathesis with both symmetric and non-symmetric diboron reagents. This journal is
Rhodium-Catalyzed Deoxygenation and Borylation of Ketones: A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Investigation

The rhodium-catalyzed deoxygenation and borylation of ketones with B2pin2 have been developed, leading to efficient formation of alkenes, vinylboronates, and vinyldiboronates. These reactions feature mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, and excellent functional-group compatibility. Mechanistic studies support that the ketones initially undergo a Rh-catalyzed deoxygenation to give alkenes via boron enolate intermediates, and the subsequent Rh-catalyzed dehydrogenative borylation of alkenes leads to the formation of vinylboronates and diboration products, which is also supported by density functional theory calculations.
