- Palladium-catalyzed borylation of aryl bromides and chlorides using phosphatrioxa-adamantane ligands
-
Catalysts based on the combination of Pd(OAc)2 and the electron-deficient phosphatrioxa-adamantane ligands are described for borylation of aryl bromides and chlorides. Catalytic evaluation of a small library of phosphatrioxa-adamantane ligands provided some insights on the preferred ligand steric profile for borylation reactions. The corresponding aryl boronate esters were accessed under mild conditions (25–70 °C) and isolated in high yields (up to 96%).

- Mono-Phosphine Metal-Organic Framework-Supported Cobalt Catalyst for Efficient Borylation Reactions
-
We report a metal-organic framework (MOF) supported monoligated phosphine-cobalt complex, which is an active heterogeneous catalyst for aromatic C?H borylation and alkene hydroboration. The mono(phosphine)-Co catalyst (MOF?P?Co) was prepared by metalation of a porous triarylphosphine-functionalized MOF (MOF?P) with CoCl2 followed by activation with NaEt3BH. The MOF catalyst has a broad substrate scope with excellent functional group tolerance to afford arene- and alkyl-boronate esters in excellent yields and selectivity. MOF?P?Co gave a turnover number (TON) of 30,000 and could be recycled and reused at least 13 times in arene C?H borylation. Importantly, the attempt to prepare the homogeneous control (Ph3P?Co) using triphenylphosphine was unsuccessful due to the facile disproportionation reactions or intermolecular ligand exchanges in the solution. In contrast, the site isolation of the active mono(phosphine)-Co species within the MOF affords the robust and coordinatively unsaturated metal complexes, allowing to explore their catalytic properties and the reaction mechanism.

- Unreactive C-N Bond Activation of Anilines via Photoinduced Aerobic Borylation
-
Unreactive C-N bond activation of anilines was achieved by photoinduced aerobic borylation. A diverse range of tertiary and secondary anilines were converted to aryl boronate esters in moderate to good yields with wide functional group tolerance under simple and ambient photochemical conditions. This transformation achieved the direct and facile C-N bond activation of unreactive anilines, providing a convenient and practical route transforming widely available anilines into useful aryl boronate esters.

- Arene borylation through C–H activation using Cu3(BTC)2 as heterogeneous catalyst
-
C–H borylation by diborane is an important process to access organoboron compounds. Noble metals, including Ir and Rh-based complexes either in the form of homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysts, have been reported to promote arene C–H borylation. Recently, metal organic frameworks (MOFs) having Ir and Co as active sites have been used as catalysts, but they require co-catalysts. In the present study, commercially available Cu3(BTC)2 (BTC: 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate) MOF is reported as an effective catalyst to promote borylation of arenes through C–H activation employing bis(pinacolato)diboron (1) as reagent leading to benzylic and aromatic borylation products. Interestingly, other related MOFs like MIL-101(Cr) and Al(OH)(BDC) (BDC: 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) do not exhibit catalytic activity under identical conditions. Mechanistic studies using in-situ IR spectroscopy reveal that Cu ions play a crucial role in activating the arene and B–B bond in 1.

- Engaging Ag(0) single atoms in silver(I) salts-mediated C-B and C-S coupling under visible light irradiation
-
Silver(I) salts were found active in the borylation and sulfenylation of aryl iodides under visible light irradiation. The optimized borylation protocol using AgF did not need any additive, operated under very mild conditions, and well tolerated a broad scope of substrates and boron sources. Formation of Ag(0) single atoms (AgSAs) during the borylation reactions was examined using high-angle annular dark field aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope (HAADF AC-STEM) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The activities of the silver(I) salts were affected by the anions and could be associated with their abilities in formation of AgSAs during the reactions. Kinetic studies showed that the deiodination rate was linearly correlated with the loading of AgSAs, and hence AgSAs were the true catalytic centers for the 1e?-reduction of the C-I moieties. The oxidation state of AgSAs kept 0 in both the resting and the working states. A “work-in-tandem” mechanism involving AgSAs as the catalytic centers and AgNPs as the light absorber to achieve the borylation of aryl iodides under visible light irradiation is proposed. The current approach not only provides an alternative system for borylation and sulfenylation of aryl iodides, but also reveals a new activity of silver(I) salts involving AgSAs under visible light irradiation.

- Zinc Complexes with an Ethylene-Bridged Bis(β-diketiminate) Ligand: Syntheses, Structures, and Applications as Catalysts in the Borylation of Aryl Iodides
-
A dinucleating bis(β-diketiminate) ligand with a flexible bridge has been employed to synthesize zinc complexes. The ligand, abbreviated H2L (H2L = N-(4-((2-((4-((2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino)pent-2-en-2-yl)amino)ethyl)imino)pent-2-en-2-yl)-2,6-diisopropylaniline), was deprotonated with ZnEt2 to afford [LZn2Et2] (1). Reactions of 1 with 2 equiv of BnOH and nBuOH, respectively, gave access to [LZn2(OBn)2]·C6H14 (2·C6H14) and [LZn2(OnBu)2] (3). Treatment of 1 with 2 equiv of I2 in THF produced [LZn2I2(THF)2]·2THF (4·2THF). X-ray single-crystal diffraction analyses revealed that they are all heteroleptic bimetallic compounds with two metal centers being chelated by one ligand set. The structurally similar compounds 1 and 4·2THF possess approximate C2 symmetry, with two β-diketiminate units being arrayed in head-to-tail antiparallel mode. Thus, the molecular structures of 1 and 4·2THF exhibit a seesaw-like topology. The structures of 2·C6H14 and 3 are almost identical, in which two zinc atoms are shared by two ZnN2C3 six-membered rings, two Zn2ON2C2 seven-membered rings, and one Zn2O2 four-membered ring. Therefore, the metal cores of 2·C6H14 and 3 display a crownlike topology. All complexes are catalytically active for the borylation of aryl iodides with B2Pin2 (B2Pin2 = 4,4,4′,4′,5,5,5′,5′-octamethyl-2,2′-bis(1,3,2-dioxaborolane). Complex 1 shows higher activity in comparison to 2, 3, and 4·2THF. The borylation reactions catalyzed by 1 could proceed under mild conditions and can be applied to a series of substrates with high functional group generality. This methodology thus represents a novel use of β-diketiminate zinc complexes for C-I borylation.

- Evaluation of the role of graphene-based Cu(i) catalysts in borylation reactions
-
Carbon-supported catalysts have been considered as macromolecular ligands which modulate the activity of the metallic catalytic center. Understanding the properties and the factors that control the interactions between the metal and support allows a fine tuning of the catalyzed processes. Although huge effort has been devoted to comprehending binding energies and charge transfer for single atom noble metals, the interaction of graphenic surfaces with cheap and versatile Cu(i) salts has been scarcely studied. A methodical experimental and theoretical analysis of different carbon-based Cu(i) materials in the context of the development of an efficient, general, scalable, and sustainable borylation reaction of aliphatic and aromatic halides has been performed. We have also examined the effect of microwave (MW) radiation in the preparation of these type of materials using sustainable graphite nanoplatelets (GNP) as a support. A detailed analysis of all the possible species in solution revealed that the catalysis is mainly due to an interesting synergetic Cu2O/graphene performance, which has been corroborated by an extensive theoretical study. We demonstrated through DFT calculations at a high level of theory that graphene enhances the reactivity of the metal in Cu2O against the halide derivative favoring a radical departure from the halogen. Moreover, this material is able to stabilize radical intermediates providing unexpected pathways not observed using homogeneous Cu(i) catalysed reactions. Finally, we proved that other common carbon-based supports like carbon black, graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide provided poorer results in the borylation process.

- Cross-Coupling through Ag(I)/Ag(III) Redox Manifold
-
In ample variety of transformations, the presence of silver as an additive or co-catalyst is believed to be innocuous for the efficiency of the operating metal catalyst. Even though Ag additives are required often as coupling partners, oxidants or halide scavengers, its role as a catalytically competent species is widely neglected in cross-coupling reactions. Most likely, this is due to the erroneously assumed incapacity of Ag to undergo 2e? redox steps. Definite proof is herein provided for the required elementary steps to accomplish the oxidative trifluoromethylation of arenes through AgI/AgIII redox catalysis (i. e. CEL coupling), namely: i) easy AgI/AgIII 2e? oxidation mediated by air; ii) bpy/phen ligation to AgIII; iii) boron-to-AgIII aryl transfer; and iv) ulterior reductive elimination of benzotrifluorides from an [aryl-AgIII-CF3] fragment. More precisely, an ultimate entry and full characterization of organosilver(III) compounds [K]+[AgIII(CF3)4]? (K-1), [(bpy)AgIII(CF3)3] (2) and [(phen)AgIII(CF3)3] (3), is described. The utility of 3 in cross-coupling has been showcased unambiguously, and a large variety of arylboron compounds was trifluoromethylated via [AgIII(aryl)(CF3)3]? intermediates. This work breaks with old stereotypes and misconceptions regarding the inability of Ag to undergo cross-coupling by itself.

- Catalytic Boration of Alkyl Halides with Borane without Hydrodehalogenation Enabled by Titanium Catalyst
-
An unprecedented and general titanium-catalyzed boration of alkyl (pseudo)halides (alkyl-X, X=I, Br, Cl, OMs) with borane (HBpin, HBcat) is reported. The use of titanium catalyst can successfully suppress the undesired hydrodehalogenation products that prevail using other transition-metal catalysts. A series of synthetically useful alkyl boronate esters are readily obtained from various (primary, secondary, and tertiary) alkyl electrophiles, including unactivated alkyl chlorides, with tolerance of other reducing functional groups such as ester, alkene, and carbamate. Preliminary studies on the mechanism revealed a possible radical reaction pathway. Further extension of our strategy to aryl bromides is also demonstrated.

- Sequential Ir/Cu-Mediated Method for the Meta-Selective C-H Radiofluorination of (Hetero)Arenes
-
This article describes a sequential Ir/Cu-mediated process for the meta-selective C-H radiofluorination of (hetero)arene substrates. In the first step, Ir-catalyzed C(sp2)-H borylation affords (hetero)aryl pinacolboronate (BPin) esters. The intermediate organoboronates are then directly subjected to copper-mediated radiofluorination with [18F]tetrabutylammonium fluoride to afford fluorine-18 labeled (hetero)arenes in high radiochemical yield and radiochemical purity. This entire process is performed on a benchtop without Schlenk or glovebox techniques and circumvents the need to isolate (hetero)aryl boronate esters. The reaction was automated on a TracerLab FXFN module with 1,3-dimethoxybenzene and a meta-tyrosine derivative. The products, [18F]1-fluoro-3,5-dimethoxybenzene and an 18F-labeled meta-tyrosine derivative, were obtained in 37 ± 5% isolated radiochemical yield and >99% radiochemical purity and 25% isolated radiochemical yield and 99% radiochemical purity, and 0.52 Ci/μmol (19.24 GBq/μmol) molar activity (Am), respectively.

The desulfitative borylation reaction of sodium arylsulfinates with bis(pinacolato)diboron or bis(neopentylglycolato)diboron under palladium catalysis has been developed, allowing selective C-B bond formation to give arylboronates with a range of functional groups in moderate to good yields under mild reaction conditions. A gram-scale preparation as well as the cascade Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of arylboronates demonstrated the potential practical utility in organic synthesis.

-
The conversion of silyloxyarenes to boronic acid pinacol esters via nickel catalysis is described. In contrast to other borylation protocols of inert C-O bonds, the method is competent in activating the carbon-oxygen bond of silyloxyarenes in isolated aromatic systems lacking a directing group. The catalytic functionalization of benzyl silyl ethers was also achieved under these conditions. Sequential cross-coupling reactions were achieved by leveraging the orthogonal reactivity of silyloxyarenes, which could then be functionalized subsequently.

- Photo-induced thiolate catalytic activation of inert Caryl-hetero bonds for radical borylation
-
Substantial effort is currently being devoted to obtaining photoredox catalysts with high redox power. Yet, it remains challenging to apply the currently established methods to the activation of bonds with high bond dissociation energy and to substrates with high reduction potentials. Herein, we introduce a novel photocatalytic strategy for the activation of inert substituted arenes for aryl borylation by using thiolate as a catalyst. This catalytic system exhibits strong reducing ability and engages non-activated Caryl–F, Caryl–X, Caryl–O, Caryl–N, and Caryl–S bonds in productive radical borylation reactions, thus expanding the available aryl radical precursor scope. Despite its high reducing power, the method has a broad substrate scope and good functional-group tolerance. Spectroscopic investigations and control experiments suggest the formation of a charge-transfer complex as the key step to activate the substrates.

- Transformations of Aryl Ketones via Ligand-Promoted C?C Bond Activation
-
The coupling of aromatic electrophiles (aryl halides, aryl ethers, aryl acids, aryl nitriles etc.) with nucleophiles is a core methodology for the synthesis of aryl compounds. Transformations of aryl ketones in an analogous manner via carbon–carbon bond activation could greatly expand the toolbox for the synthesis of aryl compounds due to the abundance of aryl ketones. An exploratory study of this approach is typically based on carbon–carbon cleavage triggered by ring-strain release and chelation assistance, and the products are also limited to a specific structural motif. Here we report a ligand-promoted β-carbon elimination strategy to activate the carbon–carbon bonds, which results in a range of transformations of aryl ketones, leading to useful aryl borates, and also to biaryls, aryl nitriles, and aryl alkenes. The use of a pyridine-oxazoline ligand is crucial for this catalytic transformation. A gram-scale borylation reaction of an aryl ketone via a simple one-pot operation is reported. The potential utility of this strategy is also demonstrated by the late-stage diversification of drug molecules probenecid, adapalene, and desoxyestrone, the fragrance tonalid as well as the natural product apocynin.

Efficient borylation reaction of diazonium salts in water is realized for the first time by using easily prepared, highly emissive and crystalline carbon dots. Electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups on diazonium salts were well tolerated with moderate to good conversion efficiency. Compared with widely used metal complexes, organic dyes and quantum dots, the approach presented herein uses carbon dots, which are nontoxic and possess good biological and medicinal compatibility and high reactivity. Therefore, this approach presents a new prospective use for carbon dots in green chemistry.

- Direct C?H Borylation of Arenes Catalyzed by Saturated Hydride-Boryl-Iridium-POP Complexes: Kinetic Analysis of the Elemental Steps
-
The saturated trihydride IrH3{κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} (1; xant(PiPr2)2=9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene) activates the B?H bond of two molecules of pinacolborane (HBpin) to give H2, the hydride-boryl derivatives IrH2(Bpin){κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} (2) and IrH(Bpin)2{κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} (3) in a sequential manner. Complex 3 activates a C?H bond of two molecules of benzene to form PhBpin and regenerates 2 and 1, also in a sequential manner. Thus, complexes 1, 2, and 3 define two cycles for the catalytic direct C?H borylation of arenes with HBpin, which have dihydride 2 as a common intermediate. C?H bond activation of the arenes is the rate-determining step of both cycles, as the C?H oxidative addition to 3 is faster than to 2. The results from a kinetic study of the reactions of 1 and 2 with HBpin support a cooperative function of the hydride ligands in the B?H bond activation. The addition of the boron atom of the borane to a hydride facilitates the coordination of the B?H bond through the formation of κ1- and κ2-dihydrideborate intermediates.

- Boron–Nitrogen-Doped Nanographenes: A Synthetic Tale from Borazine Precursors
-
In this work, a comprehensive account of the authors’ synthetic efforts to prepare borazino-doped hexabenzocoronenes by using the Friedel–Crafts-type electrophilic aromatic substitution is reported. Hexafluoro-functionalized aryl borazines, bearing an ortho fluoride leaving group on each of the N- and B-aryl rings, was shown to lead to cascade-type electrophilic aromatic substitution events in the stepwise C?C bond formation, giving higher yields of borazinocoronenes than those obtained with borazine precursors bearing fluoride leaving groups at the ortho positions of the B-aryl substituents. By using this pathway, an unprecedented boroxadizine-doped PAH featuring a gulf-type periphery could be isolated, and its structure proven by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Mechanistic studies on the stepwise Friedel–Crafts-type cyclization suggest that the mechanism of the planarization reaction proceeds through extension of the π system. To appraise the doping effect of the boroxadizine unit on the optoelectronic properties of topology-equivalent molecular graphenes, the all-carbon and pyrylium PAH analogues, all featuring a gulf-type periphery, were also prepared. As already shown for the borazino-doped hexabenzocoronene, the replacement of the central benzene ring by its B3N2O congener widens the HOMO–LUMO gap and dramatically enhances the fluorescence quantum yield.

- Single-Site Cobalt-Catalyst Ligated with Pyridylimine-Functionalized Metal-Organic Frameworks for Arene and Benzylic Borylation
-
We report a highly active single-site heterogeneous cobalt-catalyst based on a porous and robust pyridylimine-functionalized metal-organic frameworks (pyrim-MOF) for chemoselective borylation of arene and benzylic C-H bonds. The pyrim-MOF having UiO-68 topology, constructed from zirconium-cluster secondary building units and pyridylimine-functionalized dicarboxylate bridging linkers, was metalated with CoCl2 followed by treatment of NaEt3BH to give the cobalt-functionalized MOF-catalyst (pyrim-MOF-Co). Pyrim-MOF-Co has a broad substrate scope, allowing the C-H borylation of halogen-, alkoxy-, alkyl-substituted arenes as well as heterocyclic ring systems using B2pin2 or HBpin (pin = pinacolate) as the borylating agent to afford the corresponding arene- or alkyl-boronate esters in good yields. Pyrim-MOF-Co gave a turnover number (TON) of up to 2500 and could be recycled and reused at least 9 times. Pyrim-MOF-Co was also significantly more robust and active than its homogeneous control, highlighting the beneficial effect of active-site isolation within the MOF framework that prevents intermolecular decomposition. The experimental and computational studies suggested (pyrim?-)CoI(THF) as the active catalytic species within the MOF, which undergoes a mechanistic pathway of oxidative addition, turnover limiting σ-bond metathesis, followed by reductive elimination to afford the boronate ester.

- Controllable factors of supported IR complex catalysis for aromatic C?H borylation

We have developed a catalyst in which an Ir complex and organic functionalities are coimmobilized on the silica surface. The catalytic activity for aromatic C?H borylation was significantly affected by (i) the linker length of the Ir?bipyridine complex, (ii) the coimmobilized organic functionality, and (iii) the substituents on the aromatic substrate compounds. The fine-tuned supported catalyst showed higher activity than the homogeneous Ir?bipyridine complex when using a specific substrate such as benzonitrile. We elucidated this property by conducting solid-state NMR, FT-IR, XAFS, and in situ FT-IR analysis.

- Visible-Light-Induced Ni-Catalyzed Radical Borylation of Chloroarenes
-
A highly selective and general photoinduced C-Cl borylation protocol that employs [Ni(IMes)2] (IMes = 1,3-dimesitylimidazoline-2-ylidene) for the radical borylation of chloroarenes is reported. This photoinduced system operates with visible light (400 nm) and achieves borylation of a wide range of chloroarenes with B2pin2 at room temperature in excellent yields and with high selectivity, thereby demonstrating its broad utility and functional group tolerance. Mechanistic investigations suggest that the borylation reactions proceed via a radical process. EPR studies demonstrate that [Ni(IMes)2] undergoes very fast chlorine atom abstraction from aryl chlorides to give [NiI(IMes)2Cl] and aryl radicals. Control experiments indicate that light promotes the reaction of [NiI(IMes)2Cl] with aryl chlorides generating additional aryl radicals and [NiII(IMes)2Cl2]. The aryl radicals react with an anionic sp2-sp3 diborane [B2pin2(OMe)]- formed from B2pin2 and KOMe to yield the corresponding borylation product and the [Bpin(OMe)]?- radical anion, which reduces [NiII(IMes)2Cl2] under irradiation to regenerate [NiI(IMes)2Cl] and [Ni(IMes)2] for the next catalytic cycle.

The synthesis of arylboronates by Sandmeyer-type reactions in the presence of water still remains a significant challenge. Herein, we report the use of water-soluble MPA-capped quantum dot (QD) photocatalysts for the borylation of diazonium salts in the presence of water. A biphasic system under mild acidic conditions remains critical to prevent decomposition and competitive disulphide bond formation. The present protocol offers a broader scope of substrates and borylating agents. Additionally, this catalytic system offers a significantly high turnover number (TON). The present methodology can effectively distinguish subtle reactivity differences between boronic acids and boronates. Mechanistic investigation suggests an excited-state electron transfer pathway.

- Catalytic C?H Borylation Using Iron Complexes Bearing 4,5,6,7-Tetrahydroisoindol-2-ide-Based PNP-Type Pincer Ligand
-
Catalytic C?H borylation has been reported using newly designed iron complexes bearing a 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoindol-2-ide-based PNP pincer ligand. The reaction tolerated various five-membered heteroarenes, such as pyrrole derivatives, as well as six-membered aromatic compounds, such as toluene. Successful examples of the iron-catalyzed sp3 C?H borylation of anisole derivatives were also presented.

- Cleavage of C(aryl)?CH3 Bonds in the Absence of Directing Groups under Transition Metal Free Conditions
-
Organic chemists now can construct carbon–carbon σ-bonds selectively and sequentially, whereas methods for the selective cleavage of carbon–carbon σ-bonds, especially for unreactive hydrocarbons, remain limited. Activation by ring strain, directing groups, or in the presence of a carbonyl or a cyano group is usually required. In this work, by using a sequential strategy site-selective cleavage and borylation of C(aryl)?CH3 bonds has been developed under directing group free and transition metal free conditions. Methyl groups of various arenes are selectively cleaved and replaced by boryl groups. Mechanistic analysis suggests that it proceeds by a sequential intermolecular oxidation and coupling of a transient aryl radical, generated by radical decarboxylation, involving a pyridine-stabilized persistent boryl radical.

- Competing dehalogenation versus borylation of aryl iodides and bromides under transition-metal-free basic conditions
-
In this work, selectivity-controllable base-promoted transition-metal-free borylation and dehalogenation of aryl halides are described. Under the conditions of borylation, the dehalogenation which emerges as a competitive side reaction has been well-controlled by carefully controlling the borylation conditions. On the other hand, the dehalogenation using benzaldehyde as a hydrogen source has also been accomplished. The applications of direct radical borylation and dehalogenation of aryl halides demonstrate their synthetic practicability in pharmaceutical-oriented organic synthesis. Based on the experimental evidences, the tBuOK/1,10-Phen-triggered radical nature of both competitive reactions has been revealed.

- Hydrogenation of (Hetero)aryl Boronate Esters with a Cyclic (Alkyl)(amino)carbene–Rhodium Complex: Direct Access to cis-Substituted Borylated Cycloalkanes and Saturated Heterocycles
-
We herein report the hydrogenation of substituted aryl- and heteroaryl boronate esters for the selective synthesis of cis-substituted borylated cycloalkanes and saturated heterocycles. A cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene-ligated rhodium complex with two dimethyl groups at the ortho-alkyl scaffold of the carbene showed high reactivity in promoting the hydrogenation, thereby enabling the hydrogenation of (hetero)arenes with retention of the synthetically valuable boronate group. This process constitutes a clean, atom-economic, as well as chemo- and stereoselective route for the generation of cis-configured, diversely substituted borylated cycloalkanes and saturated heterocycles that are usually elusive and difficult to prepare.

- Nickel-Catalyzed C(sp2)-H Borylation of Arenes
-
In this study, C(sp2)-H borylation of arenes was accomplished by a nickel catalyst, resulting in good yield. Alkyl and alkoxy arenes were successfully functionalized, affording C(sp2)-H borylated compounds. It was unraveled that the well-defined abnormal N-heterocyclic carbene based Ni(II) complex breaks into Ni nanoparticles (Ni-NPs), which act as catalytically active species. A series of controlled reactions under stoichiometric conditions along with spectroscopic studies and single-crystal X-ray crystallographic study helped us to understand the formation of Ni-NPs along with formation of a boron(III) compound during this reaction.

-
Room temperature Pd(0)/Ad3P-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of aryl chlorides with bis(pinacolato)diboron are described. The Pd(0)/Ad3P catalyst, generated from Ad3P-coordinated acetanilide-based palladacycle complex, proved to be an efficient catalyst system for the Miyaura borylation reactions of a variety of aryl chlorides with bis(pinacolato)diboron. The mild reaction condition, the easy availability of the catalyst and good coupling yields make these reactions potentially useful in organic synthesis.

- Visible-Light-Induced Organocatalytic Borylation of Aryl Chlorides
-
The preparation of arylboronates from unactivated aryl chlorides in a transition-metal-free manner is rather challenging. There are only few examples to achieve this goal by using ultraviolet irradiation. Based on the mechanistic understanding of the diboron/methoxide/pyridine reaction system, we achieved photoactivation of the in situ generated super electron donor and developed a visible-light-induced organocatalytic method for efficient borylation of unactivated aryl chlorides.

- Nickel-Catalyzed Reductive Cleavage of Carbon-Oxygen Bonds in Anisole Derivatives Using Diisopropylaminoborane
-
The catalytic removal of a methoxy group on an aromatic ring allows this group to be used as a traceless activating and directing group for aromatic functionalization reactions. Although several catalytic methods for the reductive cleavage of anisole derivatives have been reported, all are applicable only to π-extended aryl ethers, such as naphthyl and biphenyl ethers, while monocyclic aryl ethers cannot be reduced. Herein, we report a nickel-catalyzed reductive cleavage reaction of C-O bonds in aryl ethers using diisopropylaminoborane as the reducing agent. Unlike previously reported methods, this reducing reagent allows effective C-O bond reduction in a much wider range of aryl ether substrates, including monocyclic and heterocyclic ethers bearing various functional groups.

An efficient and non-expensive method for conversion of diverse potassium organotrifluoroborates to their corresponding boronic acids promoted by montmorillonite K10 using water as the reaction solvent is described. Further interconversion of potassium organotrifluoroborates to their corresponding boronic esters, via boronic acid intermediates was also successfully accomplished. The products were obtained in good yields, being the rate of hydrolysis influenced by the type of substituent present in the boronic acid.

- Highly active, separable and recyclable bipyridine iridium catalysts for C-H borylation reactions
-
Iridium complexes generated from Ir(i) precursors and PIB oligomer functionalized bpy ligands efficiently catalyzed the reactions of arenes with bis(pinacolato)diboron under mild conditions to produce a variety of arylboronate compounds. The activity of this PIB bound homogeneous catalyst is similar to that of an original non-recyclable catalyst which allows it to be used under milder conditions than other reported recyclable catalysts. This oligomer-supported Ir catalyst was successfully recovered through biphasic extraction and reused for eight cycles without a loss of activity. Biphasic separation after the initial use of the catalyst led to an insignificant amount of iridium leaching from the catalyst to the product, and no iridium leaching from the catalyst was observed in the subsequent recycling runs. Arylboronate products obtained after extraction are sufficiently pure as observed by 1H and 13C-NMR spectroscopy that they do not require further purification.

- C-H borylation by platinum catalysis
-
Herein, we describe the platinum-catalyzed borylation of aromatic C-H bonds. N-Heterocyclic carbene-ligated platinum catalysts are found to be efficient catalysts for the borylation of aromatic C(sp2)-H bonds when bis(pinacolato)diboron is used as the boron source. The most remarkable feature of these Pt catalysts is their lack of sensitivity towards the degree of steric hindrance around the C-H bonds undergoing the borylation reaction. These Pt catalysts allow for the synthesis of sterically congested 2,6-disubstituted phenylboronic esters, which are otherwise difficult to synthesize using existing C-H borylation methods. Furthermore, platinum catalysis allows for the site-selective borylation of the C-H bonds ortho to fluorine substituents in fluoroarene systems. Preliminary mechanistic studies and work towards the synthetic application of this platinum catalyzed C-H borylation process are described.

- Isonicotinate Ester Catalyzed Decarboxylative Borylation of (Hetero)Aryl and Alkenyl Carboxylic Acids through N-Hydroxyphthalimide Esters
-
Decarboxylative borylation of aryl and alkenyl carboxylic acids with bis(pinacolato)diboron was achieved through N-hydroxyphthalimide esters using tert-butyl isonicotinate as a catalyst under base-free conditions. A variety of aryl carboxylic acids possessing different functional groups and electronic properties can be smoothly converted to aryl boronate esters, including those that are difficult to decarboxylate under transition-metal catalysis, offering a new method enabling use of carboxylic acid as building blocks in organic synthesis. Mechanistic analysis suggests the reaction proceeds through coupling of a transient aryl radical generated by radical decarboxylation with a pyridine-stabilized persistent boryl radical. Activation of redox active esters may proceed via an intramolecular single-electron-transfer (SET) process through a pyridine-diboron-phthalimide adduct and accounts for the base-free reaction conditions.
