Abstract
Bis(alkenyl)boronates react with optically active Ir(π-allyl) species in a process that involves allylation of the more substituted olefin and 1,2-metalate shift of the less substituted olefin. The method constructs valuable enantioenriched tertiary allylic boronic esters with high chemoselectivity, enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity. Allylic functionalization reactions transform the 1,3-stereodiad to 1,5- and 1,6-stereochemical relationships.

Abstract
The 1,2-rearrangement reaction is one of the most important approaches to construct carbon-carbon bonds in organic synthesis. However, the development of catalytic asymmetric 1,2-rearrangements is still far from mature and often suffers from problems such as complex substrates, single product structure, and lack of synthetic application. Multicomponent reaction has been recognized as a robust tool for the synthesis of diverse and tunable products from readily available starting material. Conceptionally and practically, the development of multicomponent asymmetric 1,2-rearrangements is highly desirable. In this regard, we report herein a three-component benzilic acid-type rearrangement of 2,3-diketoesters, aromatic amines and aldehydes for the asymmetric construction of synthetically challenging pyrrolinones bearing aza-quaternary stereocenters. To the best of our knowledge, this reaction represents the first example of organocatalyzed multicomponent asymmetric 1,2-rearrangements.

Abstract
The construction of acyclic, non-adjacent 1,3-stereogenic centers, prevalent motifs in drugs and bioactive molecules, has been a long-standing synthetic challenge due to acyclic nucleophiles being distant from the chiral environment. In this study, we successfully synthesized highly valuable 1,2-bis(boronic) esters featuring acyclic and nonadjacent 1,3-stereocenters. Notably, this reaction selectively produces migratory coupling products rather than alternative deborylative allylation or direct allylation byproducts. This approach introduces a new activation mode for selective transformations of gem-diborylmethane in asymmetric catalysis. Additionally, we found that other gem-diborylalkanes, previously challenging due to steric hindrance, also successfully participated in this reaction. The incorporation of 1,2-bis(boryl)alkenes facilitated the diversification of the alkenyl and two boron moieties in our target compounds, thereby enabling access to a broad array of versatile molecules. DFT calculations were performed to elucidate the reaction mechanism and shed light on the factors responsible for the observed excellent enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity. These were determined to arise from ligand-substrate steric repulsions in the syn-addition transition state.

Abstract
In recent years, numerous 1,2-R shift (R = aliphatic or aryl) based on tetracoordinate boron species have been well investigated. In the contrary, the corresponding radical migrations, especially 1,2-boryl radical shift for the construction of organoborons is still in its infancy. Given the paucity and significance of such strategies in boron chemistry, it is urgent to develop other efficient and alternative synthetic protocols to enrich these underdeveloped radical 1,2-boron migrations, before their fundamental potential applications could be fully explored at will. Herein, we have demonstrated a visible-light-induced photoredox neutral decarboxylative radical cross-coupling reaction, which undergoes a radical 1,2-boron shift to give a translocated C-radical for further capture of versatile radical acceptors. The mild reaction conditions, good functional-group tolerance, and broad β-boryl NHPI esters scope as well as versatile radical acceptors make this protocol applicable in modification of bioactive molecules. It can be expected that this methodology will be a very useful tool and an alternative strategy for the construction of primary organoborons via a novel radical 1,2-boron shift mode.

Abstract
Synthesis of stereodefined carbocyclic and heterocyclic tertiary boronic esters is accomplished by performing a conjunctive cross-coupling reaction on preformed cyclic boron ate complexes. Boronates bearing spirocyclic and aryl bicyclic skeletons can be synthesized enantioselectively using a chiral PHOX-ligated Pd catalyst with achiral starting material, while substrates bearing continuous stereogenic centers can be generated diastereoselectively. A variety of aryl and alkenyl electrophiles are incorporated.

Abstract
Enantioenriched organoboron intermediates are important building blocks in organic synthesis and drug discovery. Recently, transition metal-catalyzed enantioselective 1,2-metalate rearrangements of alkenylboronates have emerged as an attractive protocol to access these valuable reagents by installing two different carbon fragments across C═C π-bonds. Herein, we report the development of an iridium-catalyzed asymmetric allylation-induced 1,2-metalate rearrangement of bicyclo[1.1.0]butyl (BCB) boronate complexes enabled by strain release, which allows asymmetric difunctionalization of C-C σ-bonds, including dicarbonation and carboboration. This protocol provides a variety of enantioenriched three-dimensional 1,1,3-trisubstituted cyclobutane products bearing a boronic ester that can be readily derivatized. Notably, the reaction gives trans diastereoisomers that result from an anti-addition across the C-C σ-bond, which is in contrast to the syn-additions observed for reactions promoted by PdII-aryl complexes and other electrophiles in our previous works. The diastereoselectivity has been rationalized based on a combination of experimental data and density functional theory calculations, which suggest that the BCB boronate complexes are highly nucleophilic and react via early transition states with low activation barriers.

Abstract
The use of metalated (aza)bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes in synthesis is currently experiencing a renaissance, as evidenced by the numerous reports in the last 5 years that have relied on such intermediates to undergo unique transformations or generate novel fragments. Since their discovery, these species have been demonstrated to participate in a wide range of reactions with carbon and heteroatom electrophiles, as well as metal complexes, to facilitate the rapid diversification of (aza)bicyclo[1.1.0]butane-containing compounds. Key to this is the relative acidity of the bridgehead C-H bonds which promotes facile deprotonation and subsequent functionalization of an unsubstituted position on the carbon framework via the intermediacy of a metalated (aza)bicyclo[1.1.0]butane. Additionally, the late-stage incorporation of deuterium atoms in strained fragments has led to the elucidation of numerous reaction mechanisms that involve strained bicycles. The continued investigation into the inimitable reactivity of metalated bicycles will cement their importance within the field of organometallic chemistry.

Abstract
Alkenyl boronate complexes react with acylated quinolines and isoquinolines via 1,2-metalate rearrangement to give alkylated, dearomatized heterocycles in good yields, diastereoselectivities, and regioselectivities. This multi-component coupling is highly modular and can be used to access a wide scope of heterocyclic scaffolds. Chiral boronic esters made through this methodology possess high synthetic potential and can be transformed into various functional groups in one step without racemization.

Abstract
Transition-metal catalyzed intermolecular 1,2-diarylation of electronically unactivated alkenes has emerged as an extensive research topic in organic synthesis. However, most examples are mainly limited to terminal alkenes. Furthermore, transition-metal catalyzed asymmetric 1,2-diarylation of unactivated alkenes still remains unsolved and is a formidable challenge. Herein, we describe a highly efficient directed nickel-catalyzed reductive 1,2-diarylation of unactivated internal alkenes with high diastereoselectivities. More importantly, our further effort towards enantioselective 1,2-diarylation of the unactivated terminal and challenging internal alkenes is achieved, furnishing various polyarylalkanes featuring benzylic stereocenters in high yields and with good to high enantioselectivities and high diastereoselectivities. Interestingly, the generation of cationic Ni-catalyst by adding alkali metal fluoride is the key to increased efficiency of this enantioselective reaction.

Abstract
Analogous to the ubiquitous alkoxide ligand, metal boroxide and boryloxy complexes are an underexplored class of hard anionic O- ligand. A new series of amine-stabilized Li, Sn(II), and Zn boryloxy complexes, comprising electron-rich tetrahedral boron centers have been synthesized and characterized. All complexes have been characterized by one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), and DOSY NMR, which are consistent with the solid-state structures unambiguously determined via single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Electron-rich μ2- (Sn and Zn) and μ3- (Li) boryloxy binding modes are observed. Compounds 6-9 are the first complexes of this class, with the chelating bis- and tris-phenol ligands providing a scaffold that can be easily functionalized and provides access to the boronic acid pro-ligand, hence allowing facile direct synthesis of the resulting compounds. Computational quantum chemical studies suggest a significant enhancement of the π-donor ability of the amine-stabilized boryloxy ligand because of electron donation from the amine functionality into the p-orbital of the boron atom.

Abstract
Pd-catalyzed borylation of fluorobenzene was theoretically studied. DFT calculations revealed that the reaction occurs through an unprecedented 3 + 6-membered ring transition state, in which one LiHMDS (HMDS = hexamethyldisilazane) acts as a ligand and another LiHMDS is essential to provide Li···N and Li···F interactions, overcoming the large destabilization of the strong phenyl-F bond distortion. The characteristic feature of LiHMDS was elucidated by comparing it with HMDS and NaHMDS analogues.

Abstract
Photochemical radical generation has become a modern staple in chemical synthesis and methodology. Herein, we detail the photochemistry of a highly reducing, highly luminescent dicopper system [Cu2] (Eox* ≈ -2.7 V vs SCE; τ0 ≈ 10 μs) within the context of a model reaction: single-electron reduction of benzyl chlorides. The dicopper system is mechanistically well defined. As we show, it is the [Cu2]* excited state that serves as the outer-sphere photoreductant of benzyl chloride substrates; the ground-state oxidized byproduct, [Cu2]+, is electrochemically recycled, demonstrating a catalytic electrophotochemical C-C coupling process.

Photo-induced trifunctionalization of bromostyrenes via remote radical migration reactions of tetracoordinate boron species. Nat Commun 2022; 13:1784. [PMID: 35379818 PMCID: PMC8980057 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-022-29466-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Tetracoordinate boron species have emerged as radical precursors via deboronation by photo-induced single electron transfer (SET) pathway. These reactions usually produce an alkyl radical and boron-bound species, and the valuable boron species are always discarded as a by-product. Given the importance of boron species, it will be very attractive if the two parts could be incorporated into the eventual products. Herein we report a photo-catalyzed strategy in which in situ generated tetracoordinated boron species decomposed into both alkyl radicals and boron species under visible light irradiation, due to the pre-installation of a vinyl group on the aromatic ring, the newly generated alkyl radical attacks the vinyl group while leaving the boron species on ipso-position, then both radical part and boron moiety are safely incorporated into the final product. Tertiary borons, secondary borons, gem-diborons as well as 1,2-diborons, and versatile electrophiles are all well tolerated under this transformation, of note, ortho-, meta- and para-bromostyrenes all demonstrated good capabilities. The reaction portraits high atom economy, broad substrate scope, and diversified valuable products with tertiary or quaternary carbon center generated, with diborons as substrates, Csp2-B and Csp3-B are established simultaneously, which are precious synthetic building blocks in chemical synthesis. Tetracoordinate boron species are common radical precursors in organic synthesis, but the boron species are discarded as by-products. Herein the authors report a strategy to incorporate both the alkyl moiety and boron species into the eventual products, yielding organoboron compounds.

Abstract
Synthesis of versatile β tert-boryl amides is accomplished by conjunctive cross-coupling of α-substituted alkenyl boron "ate" complexes and carbamoyl chloride electrophiles. This reaction can be accomplished in an enantioselective fashion using a palladium catalyst in combination with MandyPhos. The addition of water results in enhanced chemoselectivity for the conjunctive coupling product relative to the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling product. Transformations of the reaction products were examined as well as application to the synthesis of (+)-adalinine.

Abstract
The number of rare earth (RE) starting materials used in synthesis is staggering, ranging from simple binary metal-halide salts to borohydrides and "designer reagents" such as alkyl and organoaluminate complexes. This review collates the most important starting materials used in RE synthetic chemistry, including essential information on their preparations and uses in modern synthetic methodologies. The review is divided by starting material category and supporting ligands (i.e., metals as synthetic precursors, halides, borohydrides, nitrogen donors, oxygen donors, triflates, and organometallic reagents), and in each section relevant synthetic methodologies and applications are discussed.

Abstract
A stereoselective annulative coupling of a vinylboronic ester ate-complex with arynes producing cyclic borinic esters has been developed. An annulation reaction that proceeded through the formation of two C–C bonds and a C–B bond was realized by exploiting a 1,2-metallate rearrangement of boronate triggered by the addition of a vinyl group to the strained triple bond of an aryne. The generated aryl anion would then cyclize to a boron atom to complete the annulation cascade. The annulated borinic ester could be converted to boronic acids and their derivatives by oxidation, halogenation, and cross-coupling. Particularly, halogenation and Suzuki–Miyaura coupling proceeded in a site-selective fashion and produced highly substituted alkylboronic acid derivatives. A stereoselective annulative coupling of a vinylboronic ester ate-complex with arynes producing cyclic borinic esters has been developed.![]()

Abstract
Three-component 1,2-carboamination of vinyl boronic esters with alkyl/aryl lithium reagents and N-chloro-carbamates/carboxamides is presented. Vinylboron ate complexes generated in situ from the boronic ester and an organo lithium reagent are shown to react with readily available N-chloro-carbamates/carboxamides to give valuable 1,2-aminoboronic esters. These cascades proceed in the absence of any catalyst upon simple visible light irradiation. Amidyl radicals add to the vinylboron ate complexes followed by oxidation and 1,2-alkyl/aryl migration from boron to carbon to give the corresponding carboamination products. These practical cascades show high functional group tolerance and accordingly exhibit broad substrate scope. Gram-scale reaction and diverse follow-up transformations convincingly demonstrate the synthetic potential of this method.

Abstract
An iron-catalyzed regioselective dicarbofunctionalization of electron-rich alkenes is described. In particular, aryl- and alkyl vinyl ethers are used as effective linchpins to couple alkyl or (fluoro)alkyl halides and sp2-hybridized Grignard nucleophiles. Preliminary results demonstrate the ability to engage thioethers as linchpins and control enantioselectivity in these transformations, an area which is largely unexplored in iron-catalyzed three-component cross-coupling reactions.

Abstract
This review discusses recent advances in the chemistry of saturated boronic acids, boronates, and trifluoroborates. Applications of the title compounds in the design of boron-containing drugs are surveyed, with special emphasis on α-amino boronic derivatives. A general overview of saturated boronic compounds as modern tools to construct C(sp3 )-C and C(sp3 )-heteroatom bonds is given, including recent developments in the Suzuki-Miyaura and Chan-Lam cross-couplings, single-electron-transfer processes including metallo- and organocatalytic photoredox reactions, and transformations of boron "ate" complexes. Finally, an attempt to summarize the current state of the art in the synthesis of saturated boronic acids, boronates, and trifluoroborates is made, with a brief mention of the "classical" methods (transmetallation of organolithium/magnesium reagents with boron species, anti-Markovnikov hydroboration of alkenes, and the modification of alkenyl boron compounds) and a special focus on recent methodologies (boronation of alkyl (pseudo)halides, derivatives of carboxylic acids, alcohols, and primary amines, boronative C-H activation, novel approaches to alkene hydroboration, and 1,2-metallate-type rearrangements).

Abstract
Boron-homologation reactions represent an efficient and programmable approach to prepare alkylboronates, which are valuable and versatile synthetic intermediates. The typical boron-homologation reaction, also known as the Matteson reaction, involves formal carbenoid insertions into C-B bonds. Here we report the development of aza-Matteson reactions via carbenoid insertions into the N-B bonds of aminoboranes. By changing the leaving groups of the carbenoids and altering Lewis acid activators, selective mono- and double-methylene insertions can be realized to access various α- and β-boron-substituted tertiary amines, respectively, from common secondary amines. The derivatization of complex amine-containing bioactive molecules, diverse functionalization of the boronate products, and sequential insertions of different carbenoids have also been achieved.

Abstract
A phosphite mediated stereoretentive C-H alkylation of N-alkylpyridinium salts derived from chiral primary amines was achieved. The reaction proceeds through the activation of the N-alkylpyridinium salt substrate with a nucleophilic phosphite catalyst, followed by a base mediated [1,2] aza-Wittig rearrangement and subsequent catalyst dissociation for an overall N to C-2 alkyl migration. The scope and degree of stereoretention were studied, and both experimental and theoretical investigations were performed to support an unprecedented aza-Wittig rearrangement-rearomatization sequence. A catalytic enantioselective version starting with racemic starting material and chiral phosphite catalyst was also established following our understanding of the stereoretentive process. This method provides efficient access to tertiary and quaternary stereogenic centers in pyridine systems, which are prevalent in drugs, bioactive natural products, chiral ligands, and catalysts.

Abstract
Hydroboration reaction of alkynes is one of the most synthetically powerful tools to access organoboron compounds, versatile precursors for cross-coupling chemistry. This type of reaction has traditionally been mediated by transition-metal or main group catalysts. Herein, we report a novel method using tropylium salts, typically known as organic oxidants and Lewis acids, to promote the hydroboration reaction of alkynes. A broad range of vinylboranes can be easily accessed via this metal-free protocol. Similar hydroboration reactions of alkenes and epoxides can also be efficiently catalyzed by the same tropylium catalysts. Experimental studies and DFT calculations suggested that the reaction follows an uncommon mechanistic pathway, which is triggered by the hydride abstraction of pinacolborane with tropylium ion. This is followed by a series of in situ counterion-activated substituent exchanges to generate boron intermediates that promote the hydroboration reaction.

Abstract
Alkenyl boronates add to Ir(π-allyl) intermediates with high enantioselectivity. A 1,2-metalate shift forms a second C-C bond and sets a 1,3-stereochemical relationship. The three-component coupling provides tertiary boronic esters that can undergo multiple additional functionalizations. An extension to trisubstituted olefins sets three contiguous stereocenters.

Abstract
Asymmetric multicomponent reactions allow stitching several functional groups in an enantioselective and atom economical manner. The introduction of boron-based reagents as a multicomponent coupling partner has its own merits. In addition to being non-toxic and highly stable, organoboron compounds can be easily converted to other functional groups in a stereoselective manner. In the last decade several transition metal catalyzed asymmetric multicomponent strategies have been evolved using boron based reagents. This review will discuss the merits and scope of multicomponent strategies based on their difference in the reaction mechanism and transition metals involved.

Abstract
We have established a highly convergent 10-step route for the total synthesis of (-)-deoxoapodine, which is a hexacyclic aspidosperma alkaloid. The quaternary C5 center of the characteristic tetrahydrofuran ring was constructed by a chiral-phosphoric-acid-catalyzed enantioselective bromocycloetherification in a 5-endo fashion and subsequent allylation by using the Keck protocol. Construction of the aspidosperma skeleton features the formation of a nine-membered lactam by a catalytic C-H palladation/alkylation cascade at the indole 2-position and an iron-catalyzed oxidative transannular reaction at a late-stage of the synthesis.

Abstract
A general and efficient approach for the preparation of 1,3-bis-(boryl)alkanes is introduced. It is shown that readily generated vinylboron ate complexes react with commercially available ICH2 Bpin to valuable 1,3-bis-(boryl)alkanes. The introduced transformation, which is experimentally easy to conduct, shows broad substrate scope and high functional-group tolerance. Mechanistic studies reveal that the reaction does not proceed via radical intermediates. Instead, an unprecedented boronic ester induced sequential bis-1,2-migration cascade is suggested.

Abstract
The stereospecific 1,2-migration of boronate complexes is one of the most representative reactions in boron chemistry. This process has been used extensively to develop powerful methods for asymmetric synthesis, with applications spanning from pharmaceuticals to natural products. Typically, 1,2-migration of boronate complexes is driven by displacement of an α-leaving group, oxidation of an α-boryl radical, or electrophilic activation of an alkenyl boronate complex. The aim of this article is to summarize the recent advances in the rapidly expanding field of electrophile-induced stereospecific 1,2-migration of groups from boron to sp2 and sp3 carbon centers. It will be shown that three different conceptual approaches can be utilized to enable the 1,2-migration of boronate complexes: stereospecific Zweifel-type reactions, catalytic conjunctive coupling reactions, and transition metal-free sp2 -sp3 couplings. A discussion of the reaction scope, mechanistic insights, and synthetic applications of the work described is also presented.

Abstract
We describe here the design of a palladium catalyzed route to generate aryl ketones via the carbonylative coupling of (hetero)arenes and aryl- or vinyl-triflates. In this, the use of the large bite angle Xantphos ligand on palladium provides a unique avenue to balance the activation of the relatively strong C(sp2)–OTf bond with the ultimate elimination of a new class of potent Friedel–Crafts acylating agent: N-acyl pyridinium salts. The latter can be exploited to modulate reactivity and selectivity in carbonylative arene functionalization chemistry, and allow the efficient synthesis of ketones with a diverse array of (hetero)arenes. A palladium catalyzed approach to the overall carbonylative functionalization of arenes to form ketones with aryl- and vinyl-triflates is described.![]()

Abstract
1,2-Boron ate rearrangements represent a fundamental class of transformations to establish new C-C bonds while retaining the valuable boron moiety in the product. In established ionic processes, the boron ate complex is activated by an external electrophile to induce a 1,2-migration from boron to an adjacent sp 3 or sp 2 carbon atom. Recently, two complementary radical polar crossover approaches have been explored for both classes, 1,2-migrations to sp 2 and sp 3 carbon centers. This review describes the general concepts in this emerging research field and summarizes recent developments of radical-induced 1,2-migrations from boron to carbon.

Abstract
Chiral 1,2-bimetallic reagents are useful motifs in synthetic chemistry. Although syn-1,2-bimetallic compounds can be prepared by alkene dimetallation, anti-1,2-bimetallics are still rare. The stereospecific 1,2-metallate shift that occurs during conjunctive cross-coupling is shown to enable a practical and modular approach to the catalytic synthesis of enantioenriched anti-1,2-borosilanes. In addition to reaction development, the synthetic utility of anti-1,2-borosilanes was investigated, including applications to the synthesis of anti-1,2-diols and anti-1,2-amino alcohols.

Abstract
Enantioselective conjunctive cross-coupling of enyne-derived boronate complexes occurs with 1,4 addition of the electrophile and migrating group across the π system. This reaction pathway furnishes α-boryl allenes as the reaction product. In the presence of a chiral catalyst, both the central and axial chirality of the product can be controlled during product formation.

Abstract
The broad synthetic utility of organoboron compounds stems from their ready ability to undergo 1,2-migrations. Normally, such shifts are induced by α-leaving groups or by reactions of alkenyl boronates with electrophiles. Herein, we present a new strategy to induce 1,2-metalate rearrangements, via ring expansion of vinylcyclopropyl boronate complexes activated by electrophiles. This leads to a cyclopropane-stabilized carbocation, which triggers ring expansion and concomitant 1,2-metalate rearrangement. This novel process delivers medicinally relevant 1,2-substituted cyclobutyl boronic esters with high levels of diastereoselectivity. A wide range of organolithiums and Grignard reagents, electrophiles, and vinylcyclopropyl boronic esters can be used. The methodology was applied to a short, stereoselective synthesis of (±)-grandisol. Computational studies indicate that the reaction proceeds via a nonclassical carbocation followed by anti-1,2-migration.
