Abstract
Site-selective C-H borylation is an important strategy for constructing molecular diversity in arenes and heteroarenes. Although transition-metal-catalyzed borylation is well explored, developing metal-free strategies remains scarce. Herein, we developed a straightforward approach for BBr3-mediated selective C-H borylation of naphthamide and phenyl acetamide derivatives under metal-free conditions. This methodology appears to be economical and cost-effective. Successful borylation of drug molecules such as ibuprofen and indoprofen demonstrates the versatility and utility of this metal-free borylation. An exclusive monoselectivity was observed without a trace of diboration. Despite the possibility of forming a 5-membered boronated intermediate at the ortho-position, the selectively 6-membered intermediate paved the way for the formation of the peri-product, which was further supported by detailed computational investigation.

Abstract
We developed a visible-light-driven photochemical transformation in which activated primary, secondary, and tertiary alkylcarboxylic acids were converted into the corresponding boronic esters in the absence of catechol and any added photocatalyst. The procedure relies on the utilization of hypoboric acid and redox-active esters of alkylcarboxylic acids to ensure a simple and economic procedure. Quantum chemical calculations and mechanistic considerations provide deeper insights into the mechanism of photochemical borylation reactions.

Abstract
Boronate rearrangements, such as the Matteson and Petasis reactions, are valuable metal-free reactions for the transfer of the carbo group on boron to intramolecular electrophilic sites. However, only highly reactive electrophiles are suitable, and ketones are too inactive for those boronate rearrangements due to the high energy barriers. We disclose here the 1,3-boronate rearrangement to ketones, for which a high energy barrier (44.9 kcal/mol) is prohibitory for thermal reactions in the ground state. The reaction is enabled by the key keto-enol-boronate bidentate complex formation in situ, which absorbs visible light to reach the excited state for the chemoselective 1,3-boronate rearrangement to ketones. Experimental and computational investigations exclude free radical intermediates from organoboronates. The aryl, alkenyl, and alkyl boronic acids react with various 1,3-diketones driven by visible light irradiation to construct structurally diverse β-keto tertiary alcohols under metal-free conditions. The reaction demonstrates substrate diversity with 58 examples, yields up to 98 %, and it is suitable for gram-scale synthesis.

Abstract
1,3-Bis(boronic) esters can be readily synthesized from alkylBpin precursors. Selective transformations of these compounds hold the potential for late-stage functionalization of the remaining C-B bond, leading to a diverse array of molecules. Currently, there are no strategies available to address the reactivity and, more importantly, the controllable regiodivergent functionalization of 1,3-bis(boronic) esters. In this study, we have achieved controllable regiodivergent alkynylation of these molecules. The regioselectivity has been clarified based on the unique chelation patterns observed with different organometallic reagents. Remarkably, this methodology effectively addresses the low reactivity of 1,3-bis(boronic) esters and bridges the gap in radical chemistry, which typically yields only the classical products formed via stable radical intermediates. Furthermore, the compounds synthesized through this approach serve as potent building blocks for creating molecular diversity.

Abstract
Substituted allyl derivatives with an internal double bond can be homologated under standard conditions via a 1,2-shift, whereas allylboronic esters with terminal double bonds can also be homologated via a SN' reaction. This allyl isomerization is catalyzed by ZnCl2 and can be suppressed by omitting ZnCl2 during the formation of α-chloroboronic ester. However, in the second step with Grignard reagents, ZnCl2 was added to suppress side reactions of the product formed.

Abstract
Reactions of the diborane(4) B2 (o-tolyl)4 and monohydridoboranes are shown to give B(o-tolyl)3 and (o-tolyl)BR2 (R2 =(C8 H14 ) 3, cat 4, pin 5, (C6 F5 )2 6) as the major products. The corresponding reaction with BH3 -sources gives complex mixtures, resulting from hydride/aryl exchange, dimerization and borane elimination. This led to the isolation of the first tetra-substituted pentaborane(9) HB[B(o-tolyl)(μ-H)]4 8. The reaction pathways are probed experimentally and by computations.

Abstract
Natural products are rich sources of interesting scaffolds possessing a plethora of biological activity. With the isolation of the martinella alkaloids in 1995, namely martinelline and martinellic acid, the pyrrolo[3,2-c]quinoline scaffold was discovered. Since then, this scaffold has been found in two additional natural products, viz. incargranine B and seneciobipyrrolidine. These natural products have attracted attention from synthetic chemists both due to the interesting scaffold they contain, but also due to the biological activity they possess. This review highlights the synthetic efforts made for the preparation of these alkaloids and formation of analogues with interesting biological activity.

Abstract
An efficient asymmetric allylation reaction of allylboronates with seven-membered cyclic imines, dibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxazepines, is described. The reaction, which is catalyzed by a Bi(OAc)3/CPA system, gives a range of chiral nitrogen-containing heterocycle structures in high yields and with good enantioselectivities. The conversion of these products to nitrogen-containing heterocycles is also demonstrated.

This methodology was applied at a gram-scale to the synthesis of the natural product (R)-chimonamidine.
