Catalytic Diboration of Aldehydes via Insertion into the Copper−Boron Bond
摘要:
Mesitaldehyde reacts cleanly with (IPr)CuB(pin) [IPr = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene); pin = 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-butanediolate] to afford the product complex 1, the first well-defined product of carbonyl group insertion into a metal-boron bond. Analysis of 1 by NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction indicates the formation of a copper-carbon and a boron-oxygen bond. A copper(I) precatalyst supported by the less sterically demanding ligand ICy (1,3-dicyclohexylimidazol-2-ylidene) achieves the efficient 1,2-diboration of aryl-, heteroaryl-, and alkyl-substituted aldehydes at room temperature.
