BAC to the future: Boronic acid catalysis (BAC) was applied to the direct activation of alcohols leading to the preparation of carbocycles (see scheme), benzofurans, tetrahydrofurans, pyrrolidines, pyrans, piperidines, and various polycyclic compounds. The reactions proceed under mild conditions that circumvent the use of reactive leaving groups like halides.
