Synthesis of benzylic boronates via palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of bis(pinacolato)diboron with benzylic halides
摘要:
The palladium cross-coupling reaction of benzyl halides with diboron 1 yielded structurally diverse pinacol benzylic boronates. Under these reaction conditions, sensitive functionalities such as esters and nitriles are tolerated and the benzylic boronates are obtained in good to high yields.
