A method has been described for accessing α-seleno alkyl boronates. The selenoboration was achieved via the diboration of carbonyl compounds to give α-oxyl boronates, which then undergo 1,2-metalate rearrangement in the presence of lithium selenolates and trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA). A variety of structurally diverse substrates were compatible with this protocol and efficiently provides difunctionalized products from simple starting materials. The presence of the boronic ester in the resulting organoselenium compounds serves as a versatile synthetic handle for various functionalizations. Mechanistic studies revealed that the binding of selenium nucleophile to both the boron centers in α-oxyl boronate esters.

In contrast to the well-established oxidative C=C double bond cleavage to give the corresponding carbonyl compounds, little is known about reductive C=C double bond cleavage. Here we report that C-C single bond cleavage in 1,2-diaryl-1,2-diborylethanes proceeds by reduction with sodium metal to yield α-boryl benzylsodium species. In combination with our previous reductive diboration of stilbenes, the overall transformation represents reductive cleavage of the C=C double bonds of stilbene to yield α-boryl-α-sodiated toluenes.

The activation of weakly polarized bonds represents a challenging, yet highly valuable process. In this context, precious metal catalysts have been used as reliable compounds for the activation of rather inert bonds for the last several decades. Nevertheless, base-metal complexes including cobalt, iron, or nickel are currently promising candidates for the substitution of noble metals in order to develop more sustainable processes.

The areas of carbonyl borylation and the homologation of carbon-boron bonds have provided a number of fruitful methods in organic synthesis. Combining these approaches, the homologation of α-oxyboronate esters, provides pathways to access complex organoboronate esters stereoselectively. To this end, the homologation of α-silyloxyboronate esters with lithiated allyl chlorides to form β-silyloxy allylboronate esters is reported.

More with boron: The development of catalytic enantioselective 1,2-diboration of 1,3-dienes enables a new strategy for enantioselective carbonyl allylation reactions (see scheme). These reactions occur with outstanding levels of stereoselection and can be applied to both monosubstituted and 1,1-disubstituted dienes. The carbonyl allylation reactions provide enantiomerically enriched functionalized homoallylic alcohol products.
