Palladium‐Catalyzed Cascade Heck Coupling and Allylboration of Iododiboron Compounds via Diboryl Radicals
摘要:
Geminal bis(boronates) are versatile synthetic building blocks in organic chemistry. The fact that they predominantly serve as nucleophiles in the previous reports, however, has restrained their synthetic potential. Herein we disclose the ambiphilic reactivity of α‐halogenated geminal bis(boronates), of which the first catalytic utilization was accomplished by merging a formal Heck cross‐coupling with a highly diastereoselective allylboration of aldehydes or imines, providing a new avenue for rapid assembly of polyfunctionalized boron‐containing compounds. We demonstrated that this cascade reaction is highly efficient and compatible with various functional groups, and a wide range of heterocycles. In contrast to a classical Pd(0/II) scenario, mechanistic experiments and DFT calculations have provided strong evidence for a catalytic cycle involving Pd(I)/diboryl carbon radical intermediates.
Formal Carbon Insertion of N-Tosylhydrazone into B–B and B–Si Bonds: gem-Diborylation and gem-Silylborylation of sp3 Carbon
摘要:
A convenient method is developed to synthesize 1,1-diboronates from the corresponding N-tosylhydrazones. This method is also applicable to synthesize 1-silyl-1-boron compounds. Meanwhile, derivatization and consecutive Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with 1,1-boronates were explored, demonstrating the synthetic potential of 1,1-diboronates.
Conjugate addition of α-boron-stabilized carbanions is an underexplored reaction modality. Existing methods require deborylation of geminal di-/triboryl alkanes and/or the presence of additional activating groups. We report the 1,4-addition of α,α-diboryl carbanions generated via deprotonation of the corresponding geminal diborons. The methodology provided a general route to highly substituted and

A transition metal-free deborylative cyclization strategy led to the efficient synthesis of racemic and enantioenriched cyclopropylboronates. The cyclization of geminal-bis(boronates) bearing a leaving group was highly diastereoselective and stereospecific, tolerating various functional groups and heterocycles. Mechanistic studies indicated that the leaving group at the γ-position significantly promoted

electrooxidation of a solvent (e.g., DMF)-ligated B2cat2 complex, whereby a solvent-stabilized boryl radical is formed via quasi-homolytic cleavage of the B−Bbond in a DMF-ligated B2cat2 radical cation. Furthermore, a strategy for the electrochemical gem-diborylation of gem-bromides viapairedelectrolysis is developed for the first time, affording a range of versatile gem-diborylalkanes.

method for accessing sterically encumbered geminal bis(boronates) was developed based on a formal umpolung strategy. The polarity inversion of the readily available 1,1-diborylalkanes allows their corresponding α-halogenated derivatives to undergo a formal substitution with a wide variety of nucleophiles to form C−C, C−O, C−S, and C−N bonds, featuring excellent tolerance to steric hindrance and functional
