Palladium-catalyzed inter- and intramolecular cross-coupling reactions of B-alkyl-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives with 1-halo-1-alkenes or haloarenes. Syntheses of functionalized alkenes, arenes, and cycloalkenes via a hydroboration-coupling sequence
The reactions of trialkylboranes or B-alkyl-9-BBN with aryl and 1-alkenyl halides take place readily in the presence of PdCl2(dppf) and sodium hydroxide or methoxide to afford alkylated arenes and alkenes in excellent yields.
