Abstract
A Minisci-type borylation of unprotected adenosine, adenine nucleotide, and adenosine analogues was successfully achieved through photocatalysis or thermal activation. Despite the challenges posed by the presence of two potential reactive sites (C2 and C8) in the purine motif, the unique nucleophilic amine-ligated boryl radicals effortlessly achieved excellent C2 site selectivity and simultaneously avoided the formation of multifunctionalized products. This protocol proved effective for the late-stage borylation of some important biomolecules as well as a few antiviral and antitumor drug molecules, such as AMP, cAMP, Vidarabine, Cordycepin, Tenofovir, Adefovir, GS-441524, etc. Theoretical calculations shed light on the site selectivity, revealing that the free energy barriers for the C2-Minisci addition are further lowered through the chelation of additive Mg2+ to N3 and furyl oxygen. This phenomenon has been confirmed by an IGMH analysis. Preliminary antitumor evaluation, derivation of the C2-borylated adenosine to other analogues with high-value functionalities, along with the CuAAC click reactions, suggest the potential application of this methodology in drug molecular optimization studies and chemical biology.

Abstract
Light-driven strategies that enable the chemoselective activation of a specific bond in multifunctional systems are comparatively underexplored in comparison to transition-metal-based technologies, yet desirable when considering the controlled exploration of chemical space. With the current drive to discover next-generation therapeutics, reaction design that enables the strategic incorporation of an sp3 carbon center, containing multiple synthetic handles for the subsequent exploration of chemical space would be highly enabling. Here, we describe the photoactivation of ambiphilic C1 units to generate α-bimetalloid radicals using only a Lewis base and light source to directly activate the C-I bond. Interception of these transient radicals with various SOMOphiles enables the rapid synthesis of organic scaffolds containing synthetic handles (B, Si, and Ge) for subsequent orthogonal activation. In-depth theoretical and mechanistic studies reveal the prominent role of 2,6-lutidine in forming a photoactive charge transfer complex and in stabilizing in situ generated iodine radicals, as well as the influential role of the boron p-orbital in the activation/weakening of the C-I bond. This simple and efficient methodology enabled expedient access to functionalized 3D frameworks that can be further derivatized using available technologies for C-B and C-Si bond activation.

Abstract
Asymmetric Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings with aryl boronic acids and allylic electrophiles are a powerful method to convert racemic mixtures into enantioenriched products. Currently, enantioconvergent allylic arylations are limited to substrates that are symmetrical about the allylic unit, and the absence of strategies to control regio-, E/Z- and enantioselectivity in acyclic allylic systems is a major restriction. Here, using a system capable of either conjugate addition or allylic arylation, we have discovered the structural features and experimental conditions that allow an acyclic system to undergo chemo- and regioselective, enantioconvergent allylic Suzuki-Miyaura-type arylation. A wide variety of boronic acid coupling partners can be used, and both alkyl and aromatic substituents are tolerated on the allylic unit so that a wide variety of structures can be obtained. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the chelating ability of the ester group is crucial to obtaining high regio- and enantioselectivity. Using this method, we were able to synthesize the natural products (S)-curcumene and (S)-4,7-dimethyl-1-tetralone and the clinically used antidepressant sertraline (Zoloft).

Abstract
P(v) iminophosphorane compounds are accessed via electrochemical oxidation of commercially available P(iii) phosphines, including mono-, di- and tri-dentate phosphines, as well as chiral phosphines. The reaction uses inexpensive bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide as an efficient and safe aminating reagent. DFT calculations, cyclic voltammetry, and NMR studies provide insight into the reaction mechanism. The proposed mechanism reveals a special case of sequential paired electrolysis. DFT calculations of the frontier orbitals of an iminophosphorane are compared with those of the analogous phosphines and phosphine oxides. X-ray crystallographic studies of the ligands as well as a Ni-coordination complex provide structural insight for these ligands. The utility of these iminophosphoranes as ligands is demonstrated in nickel-catalyzed cross-electrophile couplings including C(sp2)-C(sp3) and C(sp2)-C(sp2) couplings, an electrochemically driven C-N cross-coupling, and a photochemical arylative C(sp3)-H functionalization. In some cases, these new ligands provide improved performance over commonly used sp2-N-based ligands (e.g. 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine).

Abstract
General and robust conditions for the Liebeskind-Srogl coupling were developed and used in functionalization of medicinal-chemistry-relevant heterocyclic substrates. Applicability in HTE and library synthesis, combined with its orthogonality to other cross-coupling reactions, make it highly attractive for discovery chemistry workflows. Additionally, the results suggest that the nature of the Cu(I)-carboxylate plays a more prominent role in the reaction performance than the nature of Pd-catalysts, which is rather uncommon for Pd-catalysis and can be used in further optimization of Liebeskind-Srogl coupling.

Abstract
Analytes are sampled from both solution phase and gas-phase environments during the ESI process, and thus, the mass spectrum that is measured can reflect both solution and gas-phase conditions. In the gas-phase regime, ion-molecule reactions can influence the types of ions that are observed. Herein, the synergistic effects of a Lewis acid (Mg2+) and background water are shown to lead to protonolysis of two of the B-C bonds of the tetraphenylborate ion in the gas phase, giving rise to different ions at different reaction times in ESI-MS/MS experiments in a linear ion trap mass spectrometer. At short reaction times (1 ms), the expected adduct [Mg(BPh4)]+ is observed. At 10 ms, [(HO)Mg(BPh3)]+ and [(HO)2Mg(BPh2)]+ are observed. At 100 ms, the water adducts [(HO)2Mg(BPh2)(H2O)]+ and [(HO)2Mg(BPh2)(H2O)2]+ appear, and these become the dominant ions at longer reaction times. DFT calculations provide a plausible explanation as to why only [(HO)Mg(BPh3)]+ and [(HO)2Mg(BPh2)]+ but not [(HO)3Mg(BPh)]+ are observed.

Abstract
The structure of the diol from which an arylboronic ester is derived dramatically influences the rate of transmetalation in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. Some esters undergo transmetalation more than 20 times faster than the parent arylboronic acid. Herein, investigations into the influence of arylboronic ester ring size and steric properties on the mechanism of transmetalation in the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction are described. Both factors impact the propensity of an arylboronic ester to bind to a dimeric palladium hydroxide complex. The reaction of hindered arylboronic esters derived from 1,2-diols (1,3,2-dioxaborolanes) with palladium hydroxide dimers to form a complex incorporating a Pd-O-B linkage is thermodynamically favorable, but the barrier to coordination is often higher than the barrier to arene transfer. In contrast, the analogous reaction between arylboronic esters derived from 1,3-diols (1,3,2-dioxaborinanes) and palladium hydroxide dimers is thermodynamically unfavorable, as 1,3,2-dioxaborinanes exhibit decreased electrophilicity compared to esters derived from 1,2- or 1,4-diols. These factors also influence the barrier of the arene transfer step, and in many cases, arylboronic esters that do not easily form Pd-O-B linked complexes undergo transmetalation faster than those that do because of hyperconjugative stabilization of the arene transfer transition state.

Abstract
The cycloaddition of nitrile oxides with ethynyl-B(dan) (dan=naphthalene-1,8-diaminato) allowed the facile preparation of diverse isoxazolyl-B(dan) compounds, all of which displayed excellent protodeborylation-resistant properties. The dan-installation on the boron center proves vital to the high stability of the products as well as the perfect regioselectivity arising from hydrogen bond-directed orientation in the cycloaddition. The diminished boron-Lewis acidity of ethynyl-B(dan) also renders it amenable to azide-alkyne cycloaddition, Larock indole synthesis and related heteroannulations. The obtained boron-containing triazole, indoles, benzofuran and indenone exhibit sufficient resistance toward protodeborylation. Despite the commonly accepted transmetalation-inactive property derived from the diminished Lewis acidity, the synthesized heteroaryl-B(dan) compound was still found to be convertible to the oligoarene via sequential Suzuki-Miyaura coupling.

Abstract
An efficient and general cascade synthesis of pyrroles from nitroarenes using an acid-tolerant homogeneous iron catalyst is presented. Initial (transfer) hydrogenation using the commercially available iron-Tetraphos catalyst is followed by acid catalysed Paal-Knorr condensation. Both formic acid and molecular hydrogen can be used as green reductants in this process. Particularly, under transfer hydrogenation conditions, the homogeneous catalyst shows remarkable reactivity at low temperatures, high functional group tolerance and excellent chemoselectivity transforming a wide variety of substrates. Compared to classical heterogeneous catalysts, this system presents complementing reactivity, showing none of the typical side reactions such as dehalogenation, debenzylation, arene or olefin hydrogenation. It thereby enhances the chemical toolbox in terms of orthogonal reactivity. The methodology was successfully applied to the late-stage modification of multi-functional drug(-like) molecules as well as to the one-pot synthesis of the bioactive agent BM-635.

Abstract
The Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling is one of the most important and powerful methods for constructing C-C bonds. However, the protodeboronation of arylboronic acids hinder the development of Suzuki-Miyaura coupling in the precise synthesis of conjugated polymers (CPs). Here, an anhydrous room temperature Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction between (hetero)aryl boronic esters and aryl sulfides was explored, of which universality was exemplified by thirty small molecules and twelve CPs. Meanwhile, the mechanistic studies involving with capturing four coordinated borate intermediate revealed the direct transmetalation of boronic esters in the absence of H2 O suppressing the protodeboronation. Additionally, the room temperature reaction significantly reduced the homocoupling defects and enhanced the optoelectronic properties of the CPs. In all, this work provides a green protocol to synthesize alternating CPs.

Abstract
A 11B NMR study of 3-pyridineboronic acid at variable pH in water and 50 vol% aqueous dioxane confirms that the tautomeric equilibrium of the acid is shifted to the zwitterionic form in water, but to the molecular form in the mixed organic solvent. Interactions of 3- and 4-pyridineboronic acids with sialic acid, fructose and several other diols were studied by potentiometric titrations in a wide range of pH in water and water-organic mixtures. In all reaction media the stability of boronate complexes increases upon an increase in pH for neutral low acidic diols such as fructose and glucose but has the opposite trend for highly acidic sialic and lactic acids occurring as anionic species. The selectivity of pyridineboronic acids to sialate anions in an acidic medium is interpreted quantitatively by combining the pH-profiles with Brønsted type correlations for binding constants. In addition, mathematical expressions allowing one to predict the optimum pKa value of a boronic acid for the strongest binding of a given diol (sialic acid or fructose) at a given pH are suggested. The shifts in the tautomeric equilibrium induced by changing the solvent polarity in aqueous-organic mixtures are manifested in the magnitude of relative shifts of pKa of pyridineboronic acids induced by diol complexation.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202307540. [PMID: 37326432 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202307540] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2023] [Revised: 06/15/2023] [Accepted: 06/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Operationally simple strategies to assemble boron containing organic frameworks are highly enabling in organic synthesis. While conventional retrosynthetic logic has engendered many platforms focusing on the direct formation of C-B bonds, α-boryl radicals have recently reemerged as versatile open-shell alternatives to access organoborons via adjacent C-C bond formation. Direct light-enabled α-activation is currently contingent on photo- or transition metal-catalysis activation to efficiently generate radical species. Here, we disclose a facile activation of α-halo boronic esters using only visible light and a simple Lewis base to enable homolytic scission. Intermolecular addition to styrenes facilitates the rapid construction of highly versatile E-allylic boronic esters. The simplicity of activation permits the strategic merger of this construct with selective energy transfer catalysis to enable the complimentary stereodivergent synthesis of Z-allylic boronic esters.

Abstract
A mechanistic study into the copper(i)-catalysed sulfonylative Suzuki-Miyaura reaction, incorporating sulfur dioxide, is described. Utilising spectroscopic and computational techniques, an exploration into the individual components of the competing catalytic cycles is delineated, including identification of the resting state catalyst, transmetalation of arylboronic acid onto copper(i), the sulfur dioxide insertion process, and the oxidative addition of aryl halide to CuI. Studies also investigated prominent side-reactions which were uncovered, including a competing copper(ii)-catalysed mechanism. This led to an additional proposed and connected CuI/CuII/CuIII catalytic cycle to account for by-product formation.

Abstract
Practical advances in Ni-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling (SMC) have been limited by a lack of mechanistic understanding of phosphine ligand effects. While bisphosphines are commonly used in these methodologies, we have observed instances where monophosphines can provide comparable or higher levels of reactivity. Seeking to understand the role of ligation state in catalysis, we performed a head-to-head comparison study of C(sp2)-C(sp2) Ni SMCs catalyzed by mono and bisphosphine precatalysts using six distinct substrate pairings. Significant variation in optimal precatalyst was observed, with the monophosphine precatalyst tending to outperform the bisphosphines with electronically deactivated and sterically hindered substrates. Mechanistic experiments revealed a role for monoligated (P1Ni) species in accelerating the fundamental organometallic steps of the catalytic cycle, while highlighting the need for bisligated (P2Ni) species to avoid off-cycle reactivity and catalyst poisoning by heterocyclic motifs. These findings provide guidelines for ligand selection against challenging substrates and future ligand design tailored to the mechanistic demands of Ni-catalyzed SMCs.

Abstract
A Pd-catalyzed homologation of arylboronic acids is reported. Halomethylboronic acid pinacol esters (Bpin) undergo a remarkably facile, yet rare, oxidative addition enabled by an α-boryl effect. Simultaneous chemoselective transmetalation allows use of these metalloid reagents for formal C1 insertion to deliver benzyl Bpin products without the requirement for stoichiometric organometallic reagents. The utility of the process is demonstrated by stepwise C(sp3)-C(sp2) cross-coupling of the boronic ester products into diarylmethane pharmacophores and electrophile/nucleophile chemoselective cross-coupling. Control experiments that demonstrate the reactivity enhancement provided by the α-boryl effect are provided, along with a description of the limitations of the formal homologation process.

Abstract
Direct, transition metal-free B(dan)-installation into organic frameworks has been developed. Heteroaryl-H bonds were transformable into the respective heteroaryl-B(dan) bonds through deprotonation. The resulting heteroaryl-B(dan) compounds, which are otherwise difficult to access, can undergo the direct Suzuki-Miyaura coupling. The method was demonstrated to apply to a silicon nucleophile, giving Lewis acidity-diminished stable silyl-B(dan) and -B(aam) in one pot.

Abstract
Strempeliopidine is a member of the monoterpenoid bisindole alkaloid family, a class of natural products that have been shown to elicit an array of biological responses including modulating protein-protein interactions in human cancer cells. Our synthesis of strempeliopidine leverages palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative asymmetric allylic alkylations to install the requisite all-carbon quaternary centers found in each of the two monomeric natural products, aspidospermidine and eburnamine. Initial studies employing Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling followed by diastereoselective hydrogenation provided evidence for a structural reassignment of the natural product. Our final synthetic sequence employs a diastereoselective Petasis borono-Mannich reaction to couple eburnamine to a trifluoroborate aspidospermidine derivative. These convergent approaches enabled the synthesis of eight diastereomers of this heterodimer and offer support for the reassignment of the absolute configuration of strempeliopidine.

Abstract
Computational reaction prediction has become a ubiquitous task in chemistry due to the potential value accurate predictions can bring to chemists. Boronic acids are widely used in industry; however, understanding how to avoid the protodeboronation side reaction remains a challenge. We have developed an algorithm for in silico prediction of the rate of protodeboronation of boronic acids. A general mechanistic model devised through kinetic studies of protodeboronation was found in the literature and forms the foundation on which the algorithm presented in this work is built. Protodeboronation proceeds through 7 distinct pathways, though for any particular boronic acid, only a subset of mechanistic pathways are active. The rate of each active mechanistic pathway is linearly correlated with its characteristic energy difference, which in turn can be determined using Density Functional Theory. We validated the algorithm using leave-one-out cross-validation on a data set of 50 boronic acids and made a further 50 rate predictions on academically and industrially important boronic acids out of sample. We believe this work will provide great assistance to chemists performing reactions that feature boronic acids, such as Suzuki-Miyaura and Chan-Evans-Lam couplings.

Abstract
Herein, we describe the catalytic enantioselective cross-coupling of 1,2-bisboronic esters. Prior work on group specific cross coupling is limited to the use of geminal bis-boronates. This desymmetrization provides a novel approach to prepare enantioenriched cyclopropyl boronates with three contiguous stereocenters, that could be further derivatized through selective functionalization of the carbon-boron bond. Our results suggest that transmetallation, which is the enantiodetermining step, takes place with retention of stereochemistry at carbon.

We describe the first general transition-metal-free synthesis of gem-diboromethyl-substituted bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane (BCP) and other related C(sp3)-rich carbocyclic benzene bioisosteres from their corresponding p-tosylhydrazones. These novel functionalized benzene bioisosteres demonstrated unique reactivities toward palladium-catalyzed C(sp2)-C(sp3) cross couplings. The overall transformation can be applied to relatively complex substrates with potential utility in drug discovery.

Abstract
The development of a convergent route to the NLRP3 (nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 3) agonist BMS-986299 is reported. The synthesis relies on a key Miyaura borylation and a tandem Suzuki-Miyaura coupling between an iodoimidazole and an o-aminochloroarene, followed by acid-mediated cyclization to afford the aminoquinoline core. The subsequent Boc cleavage and regioselective acylation afford the target compound. Two routes to the iodoimidazole intermediate are presented, along with the synthesis of the o-aminochloroarene via Negishi coupling. The convergent six-step route leads to an 80% reduction in process mass intensity compared to the linear enabling synthesis.

Abstract
3-formyl-2-quinolones have attracted the scientific community's attention because they are used as versatile building blocks in the synthesis of more complex compounds showing different and attractive biological activities. Using copper-catalyzed Chan-Lam coupling, we synthesized 32 new N-aryl-3-formyl-2-quinolone derivatives at 80 °C, in air and using inexpensive phenylboronic acids as arylating agents. 3-formyl-2-quinolones and substituted 3-formyl-2-quinolones can act as substrates, and among the products, the p-methyl derivative 9a was used as a substrate to obtain different derivatives such as alcohol, amine, nitrile, and chalcone.

Abstract
Access to carbocyclic C-nucleosides (CC-Ns) is currently restricted. The few methods available to make CC-Ns suffer from long syntheses and poor modularity, hindering the examination of potentially important chemical space. Here we report an approach to CC-Ns which uses an asymmetric Suzuki-Miyaura type reaction as the key C-C bond forming step. After coupling the densely functionalized racemic bicyclic allyl chloride and heterocyclic boronic acids, the trisubstituted cyclopentenyl core is elaborated to RNA analogues via a hydroborylation-homologation-oxidation sequence. We demonstrate that the approach can be used to produce a variety of enantiomerically enriched CC-Ns, including a carbocyclic derivative of Showdomycin.

Abstract
General conditions for organic reactions are important but rare, and efforts to identify them usually consider only narrow regions of chemical space. Discovering more general reaction conditions requires considering vast regions of chemical space derived from a large matrix of substrates crossed with a high-dimensional matrix of reaction conditions, rendering exhaustive experimentation impractical. Here, we report a simple closed-loop workflow that leverages data-guided matrix down-selection, uncertainty-minimizing machine learning, and robotic experimentation to discover general reaction conditions. Application to the challenging and consequential problem of heteroaryl Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling identified conditions that double the average yield relative to a widely used benchmark that was previously developed using traditional approaches. This study provides a practical road map for solving multidimensional chemical optimization problems with large search spaces.

Abstract
We report the development of an open-source experimental design via Bayesian optimization platform for multi-objective reaction optimization. Using high-throughput experimentation (HTE) and virtual screening data sets containing high-dimensional continuous and discrete variables, we optimized the performance of the platform by fine-tuning the algorithm components such as reaction encodings, surrogate model parameters, and initialization techniques. Having established the framework, we applied the optimizer to real-world test scenarios for the simultaneous optimization of the reaction yield and enantioselectivity in a Ni/photoredox-catalyzed enantioselective cross-electrophile coupling of styrene oxide with two different aryl iodide substrates. Starting with no previous experimental data, the Bayesian optimizer identified reaction conditions that surpassed the previously human-driven optimization campaigns within 15 and 24 experiments, for each substrate, among 1728 possible configurations available in each optimization. To make the platform more accessible to nonexperts, we developed a graphical user interface (GUI) that can be accessed online through a web-based application and incorporated features such as condition modification on the fly and data visualization. This web application does not require software installation, removing any programming barrier to use the platform, which enables chemists to integrate Bayesian optimization routines into their everyday laboratory practices.

Abstract
Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling is one of the most powerful strategies for constructing biaryl compounds. However, classic Suzuki-Miyaura coupling suffers from hour-scale reaction time and competitive protodeboronation. To address these problems, a mild nonaqueous potassium trimethylsilanolate (TMSOK)-assisted Suzuki-Miyaura coupling strategy was designed for the microsynthesis of biaryls in paper spray ionization (PSI). Due to the acceleration power facilitated by microdroplet chemistry in reactive PSI, the microsynthesis of biaryls by reactive PSI was accomplished within minutes with comparable yields to the bulk, showing good substrate applicability from 32 Suzuki-Miyaura reactions of aryl bromides and aryl boronic acid/borates bearing different substituents. Based on the above TMSOK-assisted Suzuki-Miyaura coupling strategy, we further developed a high-sensitivity and selective PSI mass spectrometry (MS) method for quantitative analysis of aryl bromides, a class of environmentally persistent organic pollutants that cannot be directly detected by ambient mass spectrometry due to their low ionization efficiency. In situ derivatization of aryl bromides was achieved with aryl borates bearing quaternary ammonium groups in PSI. The proposed PSI-MS method shows good linearity over the 0.01-10 μmol L-1 range with low detection limits of 1.8-4.8 nmol L-1 as well as good applicability to the rapid determination of six aryl bromides in three environmental water samples. The proposed PSI-MS method also shows good applicability to brominated flame retardants (polybrominated diphenyls/diphenyl esters). Overall, this study provides a simple, rapid, low-cost, high-sensitivity, and high-selectivity strategy for trace aryl bromides and other brominated pollutants in real samples with minimal/no sample pretreatment.

Abstract
The palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings of nitroarenes and heteroarylboronate esters has been developed. A number of heterobiaryl compounds containing pyridine, pyrimidine, quinoline, furan, thiophene, and pyrazole were prepared using [Pd(cinnamyl)Cl]2/2-aryl-5-(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl)-2,3-imidazolylidene[1,5-a]pyridines as the catalysts in good to excellent yields. The synthetic practicality of this approach is demonstrated through the synthesis of druglike molecules.

Abstract
Recently the fruitful merger of organoboron chemistry and photocatalysis has come to the forefront of organic synthesis, resulting in the development of new technologies to access complex (non)borylated frameworks. Central to the success of this combination is control of boron hybridisation. Contingent on the photoactivation mode, boron as its neutral planar form or tetrahedral boronate can be used to regulate reactivity. This Minireview highlights the current state of the art in photocatalytic processes utilising organoboron compounds, paying particular attention to the role of boron hybridisation for the target transformation.

Abstract
Chemodivergent synthetic methodologies enable the efficient introduction of structural diversity into high-value organic products via simple chemical alterations. In this regard, C-H activation and functionalization of pyridinoid azines are important transformations in the synthesis of many natural products, pharmaceuticals, and functional materials. Reflecting on azinyl nitrogen lone-pair steric repulsion, its tendency to irreversibly coordinate metal ion catalysts, and the electron deficiency of pyridine, C-H functionalization at the important α-position remains challenging. Thus, developing earth-abundant catalysts for α-selective azine mono-functionalization is an attractive target for chemical synthesis. Here, the selective organolanthanide-catalyzed α-mono-borylation of a diverse series of 18 pyridines is reported using Cp*2LuCH(TMS)2 (Cp* = η5-C5Me5) (TMS = SiMe3) and affording valuable precursors for subsequent functionalization. Experimental and theoretical mechanistic data reported here support the intermediacy of a C-H-activated η2-lanthanide-azine complex, followed by intermolecular α-mono-borylation via σ-bond metathesis. Notably, varying the lanthanide identity and substrate substituent electronic character promotes marked chemodivergence of the catalytic selectivity: smaller/more electrophilic lanthanide3+ ions and electron-rich substrates favor selective α-C-H functionalization, whereas larger/less electrophilic lanthanide3+ ions and electron-poor substrates favor selective B-N bond-forming 1,2-dearomatization. Such lanthanide series catalytic chemodivergence is, to our knowledge, unprecedented.

Abstract
The exceptional versatility of sulfones has been extensively exploited in organic synthesis across several decades. Since the first demonstration in 2005 that sulfones can participate in Pd-catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura type reactions, tremendous advances in catalytic desulfitative functionalizations have opened a new area of research with burgeoning activity in recent years. This emerging field is displaying sulfone derivatives as a new class of substrates enabling catalytic C-C and C-X bond construction. In this review, we will discuss new facets of sulfone reactivity toward further expanding the flexibility of C-S bonds, with an emphasis on key mechanistic features. The inherent challenges confronting the development of these strategies will be presented, along with the potential application of this chemistry for the synthesis of natural products. Taken together, this knowledge should stimulate impactful improvements on the use of sulfones in catalytic desulfitative C-C and C-X bond formation. A main goal of this article is to bring this technology to the mainstream catalysis practice and to serve as inspiration for new perspectives in catalytic transformations.

Abstract
l-Glucose has recently been investigated as an artificial sweetener, but no facile method is established for the measurement of l-glucose. The commercial probe Eversense employs a fluorescent diboronate in a small device for the optical monitoring of d-glucose in people with diabetes. Being achiral, the Eversense probe should be able to detect l-glucose as well as native d-glucose, but the probe is designed for fixation under the skin, and our attempts to use the probe at laboratory conditions failed, as the probe was resetting when moved between compartments. We thus designed a water-soluble anthracene diboronate 8 similar to the fluorophore used in Eversense and found 8 to respond well to l-glucose and other carbohydrates and artificial sweeteners, thus enabling measurements of l-glucose with the limit of quantification of 12 μM. Notably, the fluorescent signal of diboronate 8 was largely quenched in buffers with the physiological concentration of albumin (0.5 mM), so the given analytical method would need more optimization to be useful for measuring l-glucose and other carbohydrates in blood samples. We suspect that other diboronate fluorophores from the literature may be similarly quenched if applied in the presence of albumin.

Abstract
![]()
Tropane derivatives are extensively used in medicine,
but catalytic
asymmetric methods for their synthesis are underexplored. Here, we
report Rh-catalyzed asymmetric Suzuki–Miyaura-type cross-coupling
reactions between a racemic N-Boc-nortropane-derived
allylic chloride and (hetero)aryl boronic esters. The reaction proceeds via an unexpected kinetic resolution, and the resolved enantiopure
allyl chloride can undergo highly enantiospecific reactions with N-,
O-, and S-containing nucleophiles. The method was applied in a highly
stereoselective formal synthesis of YZJ-1139(1), a potential insomnia
treatment that recently completed Phase II clinical trials. Our report
represents an asymmetric catalytic method for the synthesis of YZJ-1139(1)
and related compounds.

Abstract
We report an acid-catalyzed formal cycloaddition and dehydrative substitution reaction of tertiary propargylic alcohols and heteroareneboronic acids. The properties of the substituents on the alkynyl moiety determines the regioselectivity of the reaction, which could selectively construct fused heterocycles, tetrasubstituted allenes, or 1,3-dienes. This reaction proceeds efficiently with a wide array of substrate scope in up to 89% yield. A significant advantage of this protocol is the transition-metal-free and mild conditions needed.

Abstract
The pyridylation of alkynes with pyridylboronic acids is realized under rhodium catalysis. Chemodivergent pyridylation products, including alkenylpyridines produced via the hydropyridylation pathway and cyclopenta[c]pyridines produced via the pyridylation/cyclization pathway, were selectively produced by fine-tuning the reaction conditions. A mechanistic study revealed that 1,4-rhodium migration to the pyridine ring was involved as the key step in the chemodivergent synthesis.

Abstract
The geometry of a dye for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) has a major impact on its optical and electronic properties. The dye structure also dictates the packing properties and how well the dye insulates the metal-oxide surface from oxidants in the electrolyte. The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of planarizing the geometry of the common triarylamine donor, frequently used in dyes for DSSC. Five novel dyes were designed and prepared; two employ conventional triarylamine donors with thiophene and furan π-spacers, two dyes have had their donors planarized through one sulfur bridge (making two distinct phenothiazine motifs), and the final dye has been planarized by forming a double phenoxazine. The synthesis of these model dyes proved to be quite challenging, and each required specially designed total syntheses. We demonstrate that the planarization of the triarylamine donor can have different effects. When planarization was achieved by a 3,7-phenothiazine and double phenoxazine structures, improved absorption properties were noted, and a panchromatic absorption was achieved by the latter. However, an incorrect linking of donor and acceptor moieties has the opposite effect. Further, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy revealed clear differences in charge recombination depending on the structure of the dye. A drawback of planarized dyes in relation to DSSC is their low oxidation potentials. The best photovoltaic performance was achieved by 3,7-phenothazine with furan as a π-spacer, which produces a power conversion efficiency of 5.2% (J sc = 8.8 mA cm-2, V oc = 838 mV, FF = 0.70).

Abstract
ISOX-DUAL is a dual inhibitor of CBP/p300 (IC50 = 0.65 μM) and BRD4 (IC50 = 1.5 μM) bromodomains, and a useful chemical probe for epigenetic research. Aspects of the published synthetic route to this compound and its analogues are small-scale, poor-yielding or simply unamenable to scale-up without optimization. Herein we describe the development of a refined synthesis that circumvents the challenges of the original report, with notable improvements to several of the key synthetic transformations. Moreover, a general Suzuki Miyaura protocol for the late stage installation of alternative dimethyl-isoxazole acetyl-lysine (KAc) binding motifs is presented.

Abstract
This work reports a site-selective C-H borylation of pyridines at the ortho-position with pinacolborane enabled by an yttrocene catalyst. The reaction provides a new family of 2-pyridyl boronates with a broad substrate scope and high atom efficiency. The resultant boronates were able to undergo a variety of transformations, e.g., oxidation, Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, Chan-Lam amination and etherification. Catalytic intermediates, including ortho-C-H metalated and borylated complexes, were isolated from stoichiometric experiments and confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Abstract
Reagent instability reduces the efficiency of chemical processes, and while much effort is devoted to reaction optimization, less attention is paid to the mechanistic causes of reagent decomposition. Indeed, the response is often to simply use an excess of the reagent. Two reaction classes with ubiquitous examples of this are the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of boronic acids/esters and the transfer of CF3 or CF2 from the Ruppert-Prakash reagent, TMSCF3. This Account describes some of the overarching features of our mechanistic investigations into their decomposition. In the first section we summarize how specific examples of (hetero)arylboronic acids can decompose via aqueous protodeboronation processes: Ar-B(OH)2 + H2O → ArH + B(OH)3. Key to the analysis was the development of a kinetic model in which pH controls boron speciation and heterocycle protonation states. This method revealed six different protodeboronation pathways, including self-catalysis when the pH is close to the pKa of the boronic acid, and protodeboronation via a transient aryl anionoid pathway for highly electron-deficient arenes. The degree of "protection" of boronic acids by diol-esterification is shown to be very dependent on the diol identity, with six-membered ring esters resulting in faster protodeboronation than the parent boronic acid. In the second section of the Account we describe 19F NMR spectroscopic analysis of the kinetics of the reaction of TMSCF3 with ketones, fluoroarenes, and alkenes. Processes initiated by substoichiometric "TBAT" ([Ph3SiF2][Bu4N]) involve anionic chain reactions in which low concentrations of [CF3]- are rapidly and reversibly liberated from a siliconate reservoir, [TMS(CF3)2][Bu4N]. Increased TMSCF3 concentrations reduce the [CF3]- concentration and thus inhibit the rates of CF3 transfer. Computation and kinetics reveal that the TMSCF3 intermolecularly abstracts fluoride from [CF3]- to generate the CF2, in what would otherwise be an endergonic α-fluoride elimination. Starting from [CF3]- and CF2, a cascade involving perfluoroalkene homologation results in the generation of a hindered perfluorocarbanion, [C11F23]-, and inhibition. The generation of CF2 from TMSCF3 is much more efficiently mediated by NaI, and in contrast to TBAT, the process undergoes autoacceleration. The process involves NaI-mediated α-fluoride elimination from [CF3][Na] to generate CF2 and a [NaI·NaF] chain carrier. Chain-branching, by [(CF2)3I][Na] generated in situ (CF2 + TFE + NaI), causes autoacceleration. Alkenes that efficiently capture CF2 attenuate the chain-branching, suppress autoacceleration, and lead to less rapid difluorocyclopropanation. The Account also highlights how a collaborative approach to experiment and computation enables mechanistic insight for control of processes.

Abstract
A wide range of aryl boronic 1,1,2,2-tetraethylethylene glycol esters [ArB(Epin)s] were readily synthesized. Purifying aryl boronic esters by conventional silica gel chromatography is generally challenging; however, these introduced derivatives are easily purified on silica gel and isolated in excellent yields. We subjected the purified ArB(Epin) to Suzuki-Miyaura couplings, which provided higher yields of the desired biaryl products than those obtained using the corresponding aryl boronic acids or pinacol esters.
