Published: September 2016

The palladium diphosphinoboryl pincer [{(o-PPhCH)B}PdI] 8 was prepared from the diphosphinoborane complex 6a. The boryl functionality of the pincer displayed ambiphilic properties allowing: (1) coordination of Lewis basic pyridines to the boryl site and (2) access to palladium diphosphinoborane complex derivatives.

Enantioselective α-C(sp)-H Borylation of Masked Primary Alcohols Enabled by Iridium Catalysis.

J Am Chem Soc

State Key Laboratory for Oxo Synthesis and Selective Oxidation, Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Lanzhou 730000, China.

Functional group-directed site- and enantioselective C(sp)-H functionalization of alcohols or masked alcohols represents a formidable challenge. We herein report the first example of iridium-catalyzed asymmetric α-C(sp)-H borylation of primary alcohol-derived carbamates by the judicious choice of directing groups. A variety of chiral borylated carbamates were obtained with good to high enantioselectivities.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers have developed a new method for remote functionalization that uses a borenium ion as a catalyst instead of traditional transition metals, addressing issues like metal residue and catalyst poisoning.
  • The process allows for site-selective modification of molecules by enabling the "walking" of a boron group along a carbon chain, ultimately favoring the formation of α-borylation products.
  • This metal-free approach shows compatibility with various functional groups and can facilitate the synthesis of unique compounds, including those helpful in creating bioactive molecules.

Energy transfer catalysis (EnT) has had a profound impact on contemporary organic synthesis enabling the construction of higher in energy, complex molecules, via efficient access to the triplet excited state. Despite this, intermolecular reactivity, and the unique possibility to access several reaction pathways via a central triplet diradical has rendered control over reaction outcomes, an intractable challenge. Extended chromophores such as non-symmetrical dienes have the potential to undergo [2+2] cycloaddition, [4+2] cycloaddition or geometric isomerisation, which, in combination with other mechanistic considerations (site- and regioselectivity), results in chemical reactions that are challenging to regulate.

Enantioselective 1,4-Borylamination via Copper-Catalyzed Cascade Hydroborylation and Hydroamination of Arylidenecyclopropanes.

State Key Laboratory of Medical Chemical Biology and College of Pharmacy, Nankai University, Tianjin 300071, P. R. China.

Compounds bearing both boryl and amino groups at distal positions are invaluable synthons for synthesizing pharmaceuticals, drug candidates, and natural products, but their catalytic enantioselective synthesis remains rarely explored. We report the first enantioselective 1,4-borylamination reaction through a copper-catalyzed cascade hydroborylation and hydroamination of arylidenecyclopropanes. This reaction combines four readily available components in a highly chemo-, site-, and enantioselective fashion (>20:1 r.

We report the development of an earth-abundant metal catalyst for methane C-H borylation. The post-synthetic metalation of bipyridine-functionalized zirconium metal-organic framework (MOF) with NiBr, followed by treatment with NaEtBH affords MOF-supported monomeric bipyridyl-nickel(II) dihydride species via active site isolation. The heterogeneous and recyclable nickel catalyst selectively borylates methane at 200 °C using pinacolborane (HBpin) to afford CHBpin in 61 % yield with a turnover number (TON) up to 1388.
