A transition-metal-free C(sp2)?C(sp2) bond formation reaction by the cross-coupling of diazo quinones with catechol boronic esters was developed. With this protocol, a variety of biaryls and alkenyl phenols were obtained in good to high yields under mild conditions. The reaction tolerates various functionalities and is applicable to the derivatization of pharmaceuticals and natural products. The synthetic utility of the method was demonstrated by the short synthesis of multi-substituted triphenylenes and three bioactive natural products, honokiol, moracin M, and stemofuran A. Mechanistic studies and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that the reaction involves attack of the boronic ester by a singlet quinone carbene followed by a 1,2-rearrangement through a stepwise mechanism.

Heteroditopic monomers containing an arylboronate ester and a dialkyl-4-aminopyridine group aggregate via dative boron-nitrogen bonds to give main chain supramolecular polymers. The degree of polymerization can be tuned by changing the electronic and steric properties of the boronate ester.
