Copper-catalyzed synthesis of gem -diborylalkanes by B–H bond insertion of α-furyl boryl carbenes
Abstract
-diborylalkanes. This protocol proceeds in moderate to excellent yields (up to 95%) under mild conditions. Moreover, the boryl group derived from Lewis base-borane adducts can be selectively transformed into a diverse array of borate groups, which together with the large-scale experiment illustrates the synthetic potential of this methodology.
