Journal ArticleDOI
Diboron(4) Compounds: From Structural Curiosity to Synthetic Workhorse
TL;DR: Although known for over 90 years, only in the past two decades has the chemistry of diboron(4) compounds been extensively explored and these compounds now feature prominently in both metal-catalyzed and metal-free methodologies for the formation of B-C bonds and other processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactions of catecholborane with Wilkinson's catalyst: implications for transition metal-catalyzed hydroborations of alkenes

TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation of catecholborane (HBO 2 C 6 H 4 ) with RhCl(PPh 3 ) 3 (1) yielded a variety of products depending on the B/Rh ratio, solvent, and temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transition Metal Catalyzed Diboration of Vinylarenes
Journal ArticleDOI
Copper-boryl mediated organic synthesis
David S. Hemming,Russell G. Fritzemeier,Stephen A. Westcott,Webster L. Santos,Patrick G. Steel +4 more
TL;DR: In this review, methodologies in copper-boryl chemistry are discussed and the many different transformations possible are surveyed.
Journal ArticleDOI
New homogeneous rhodium catalysts for the regioselective hydroboration of alkenes
TL;DR: In this article, multinuclear (1 H, 11 B, 13 C, 19 F, and 31 P) NMR spectroscopy was used to monitor primary products from transition metal-catalyzed addition of catecholborane (HBcat) to a variety of alkenes.
