Iminoboronates and diazaborines are related classes of compounds that feature an imine ortho to an arylboronic acid (iminoboronate) or a hydrazone that cyclizes with an ortho arylboronic acid (diazaborine). Rather than acting as independent chemical motifs, the arylboronic acid impacts the rate of imine/hydrazone formation, hydrolysis, and exchange with competing nucleophiles. Increasing evidence has shown that the imine/hydrazone functionality also impacts arylboronic acid reactivity toward diols and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS). Untangling the communication between C=N linked functionalities and arylboronic acids has revealed a powerful and tunable motif for bioconjugation chemistries and other applications in chemical biology. Here, we survey the applications of iminoboronates and diazaborines in these fields with an eye toward understanding their utility as a function of neighboring group effects.

Pillar[n]arenes have broad applications in biological medicine, materials science, and supramolecular gels. Notably, enantiopure pillar[5]arenes are valued for their roles in enantioselective host-guest recognition, chiral sensing, asymmetric catalysis, and related fields. Current methods for obtaining chiral pillar[n]arenes rely heavily on resolution agents or chiral HPLC resolution.

The modification of cotton fibers with sodium chloroacetate, followed by the incorporation of NH-MIL-53(Al) through covalent bonding, has been successfully developed as a support for the immobilization of palladium nanoparticles. The integration of NH-MIL-53(Al) into cellulose enhanced the specific surface area and introduced a significant number of amino groups and pore structures, which physically isolated the metal sites. Additionally, the introduction of nitrogen heteroatoms offers numerous anchoring points, effectively preventing the loss and aggregation of the metal species.

Functionalized -aryl thioimidates were synthesized from thioamides and arylboronic acids at room temperature under mild conditions. The reaction was catalyzed by copper(II) acetate in the presence of DBU under an open atmosphere. A wide range of functionalized aryl and alkyl boronic acids was chemo-selectively coupled with aryl and alkyl thioamides to obtain corresponding -aryl and -alkyl thioimidates in 64-80% yields.

The preparation of full-color room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is attractive but remains challenging. Herein, it is demonstrated that heavy atom-free cyclodextrin MOFs (CD-MOFs) with full-color and long-lived intrinsic RTP can be achieved by CD ligand decoration. Arylboronic acids with various π conjugations are covalently anchored by γ-CD, in return, the B─O covalent bonds and hydrogen bonds jointly stabilize the triplet excitons of the arylboronic acid chromophores, leading to the longest lifetime of up to ca.

A palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling methodology has been developed by utilizing aryl alkyl selenides and organoboranes. In this deseleniative process, the organoselenium moiety acts as a pseudohalide, facilitating the cleavage of the C-Se bond through the synergistic action of palladium(0) and stoichiometric copper(I) thiophene-2-carboxylate. When conducted under microwave irradiation, the reaction methodology demonstrates broad substrate compatibility, scalability to gram-scale synthesis, and moderate to good yields.
