AbstractA convenient and efficient method for the borylation of diaryl ethers leading to dibenzoxaborininols and the synthesis of dibenzofuran derivatives has been developed. The borylation involves the sequential three‐step process: lithiation, borylation and hydrolysis. The synthesized dibenzoxaborininols could be readily transformed into dibenzofuran derivatives in good to excellent yields under palladium catalysis in the presence of iodine, and this is the first example for the formation of an aryl CC bond from diarylborinic acids.magnified image

An unusual aryne-mediated fluorination of aromatic ring systems during the desilylation of ortho-bromo-biphenyl-trimethylsilanes with tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) is described. In situ formation of an aryne and addition of fluoride affords fluorinated biphenyls. The structures have been undoubtfully confirmed by synthesis of authentic samples via Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling and X-ray analysis
