Selective protodeboronation of preformed phosphorescent di- and tetrapinacolboronate (BPin)-substituted tellurophenes controllably affords new tellurophene products that show photoluminescence or, in the case of tellurophenes lacking BPin groups at the 2,5-positions, nonemissive behavior; for comparison the protodeboronation of select thiophene and selenophenes is also reported. The resulting BPin-appended tellurophenes are promising candidates for postfunctionalization via Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling and can be effectively converted into their respective brominated tellurophene counterparts via treatment with excess CuBr2. It is expected from prior studies that these brominated tellurophenes will be suitable building blocks (and monomers) for the preparation of conjugated oligomers and polymers featuring narrower optical band gaps in relation to their lighter chalcogen analogues; in this regard preliminary Stille coupling chemistry is reported.

A benzoic acid-promoted C2-H borylation of indoles with pinacolborane to afford C2-borylated indoles is developed. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicate BH3-related borane species formed via the decomposition of pinacolborane to be the probable catalyst. This transformation provides a prompt route toward the synthesis of diverse C2-functionalized indoles.

Here we describe the discovery of a new class of C-H borylation catalysts and their use for regioselective C-H borylation of aromatic, heteroaromatic, and aliphatic systems. The new catalysts have Ir-C(thienyl) or Ir-C(furyl) anionic ligands instead of the diamine-type neutral chelating ligands used in the standard C-H borylation conditions. It is reported that the employment of these newly discovered catalysts show excellent reactivity and ortho-selectivity for diverse classes of aromatic substrates with high isolated yields. Moreover, the catalysts proved to be efficient for a wide number of aliphatic substrates for selective C(sp3)-H bond borylations. Heterocyclic molecules are selectively borylated using the inherently elevated reactivity of the C-H bonds. A number of late-stage C-H functionalization have been described using the same catalysts. Furthermore, we show that one of the catalysts could be used even in open air for the C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H borylations enabling the method more general. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the active catalytic intermediate is the Ir(bis)boryl complex, and the attached ligand acts as bidentate ligand. Collectively, this study underlines the discovery of new class of C-H borylation catalysts that should find wide application in the context of C-H functionalization chemistry.
