Base-Promoted Protodeboronation of 2,6-Disubstituted Arylboronic Acids
摘要:
Facile based promoted deboronation of electron-deficient arylboronate esters was observed for arylboronates containing two ortho electron-withdrawing group (EWG) substituents. Among 30 representative boronates, only the diortho-substituted species underwent facile C-B fission in aqueous basic conditions (200 mM hydroxide). These results provide fundamental insight into deboronative mechanisms with implications for cross-coupling reactions, regioselective deuteration/tritiation for isotopic labeling, and the design of new F-18-trifluoroborate radioprosthetics.
olefinic C-H bonds with 2-aminophenylboranes. Computational and experimentalstudies reveal that the metal-free C-H insertion proceeds via a frustrated Lewis pair mechanism involving heterolytic splitting of the C-H bond by cooperative action of the amine and boryl groups. The adapted geometry of the reactive B and N centers results in an unprecedentently low kinetic barrier for both insertion into the

Easy deuteration of fluoroarenes with good selectivity can be achieved by H/D exchange with inexpensive deuterated solvents in a sustainable way. Just alkali metal bases are enough to bring about the exchange, which does not require a transition metal. This exchange should be taken into account when using deuterium labeling for mechanistic studies under close related conditions.

The use of stoichiometric Ag(I)-salts as additives in Pd-catalyzed C-H functionalization reactions is widespread. It is commonly proposed that this additive acts as an oxidant or as a halide scavenger promoting Pd-catalyst turnover. We demonstrate that, contrary to current proposals, phosphine ligated Ag(I)-carboxylates can efficiently carry out C-H activation on electron-deficient arenes. We show
Polyfluorinated phenyl(dihydroxy)boranes C6H5-nFnB(OH)(2) (n = 3 - 5) underwent hydrodeboration (formal replacement of the (dihydroxy)boryl group by hydrogen) in the presence of bases (MeOH, 33% H2O-MeOH, KOH (1 equiv.)/33% H2O-MeOH, pyridine and 9% D2O-pyridine) and formed the fluoroaromatic compounds ArH or ArD, respectively. The rate of reaction depends on the number of fluorine atoms in the phenyl group and on the position of the fluorine atoms, relative to the B(OH)(2) substituent.
