AI Article Synopsis

  • A new method called direct and catalyst-free annulative thioboration allows for the simultaneous addition of a boryl group and thiol group to unfunctionalized olefins.
  • This process uses BCl as the only source of boron, making it more straightforward than previous methods.
  • The resulting boronic acids can be easily protected to create versatile pinacol boronate esters for further use in synthesis.

Article Abstract

A direct and catalyst-free annulative thioboration of unfunctionalized olefins has been developed. In the presence of BCl as the sole boron source, the boryl group and thiol group are added to the C-C double bonds simultaneously. The boronic acids obtained can be protected to form synthetically ubiquitous pinacol boronate esters.
