Palladium-catalyzed Carboboration: Borylative Coupling of Alkynes with Alkenes through Activation of Boron-Chlorine Bonds
Alkynes tethered to a chloro(diisopropylamino)boryl group undergo palladium-catalyzed borylative coupling with styrenes and acrylates, giving substituted cyclic 1,3-dienylboronic acid derivatives in a stereoselective fashion.
