Abstract
C-H borylation is a high-value transformation in the synthesis of lead candidates for the pharmaceutical industry because a wide array of downstream coupling reactions is available. However, predicting its regioselectivity, especially in drug-like molecules that may contain multiple heterocycles, is not a trivial task. Using a data set of borylation reactions from Reaxys, we explored how a language model originally trained on USPTO_500_MT, a broad-scope set of patent data, can be used to predict the C-H borylation reaction product in different modes: product generation and site reactivity classification. Our fine-tuned T5Chem multitask language model can generate the correct product in 79% of cases. It can also classify the reactive aromatic C-H bonds with 95% accuracy and 88% positive predictive value, exceeding purpose-developed graph-based neural networks.

Abstract
We report a recyclable and efficient catalyst system based on a nickel-benzene tricarboxylic acid metal-organic framework (Ni-BTC MOF) for the borylation of aryl halides, including aryl chlorides, with bis(pinacolato)diboron, affording aryl boronate esters in high yields (up to >99% yield) with high selectivity. This protocol demonstrates broad functional group tolerance. Catalyst can be recyclable up to four times, and gram-scale reactions further highlights the usefulness of this method. In situ EPR experiments confirmed the formation of catalytically active Ni(I) species.

Abstract
Late-stage functionalization is an economical approach to optimize the properties of drug candidates. However, the chemical complexity of drug molecules often makes late-stage diversification challenging. To address this problem, a late-stage functionalization platform based on geometric deep learning and high-throughput reaction screening was developed. Considering borylation as a critical step in late-stage functionalization, the computational model predicted reaction yields for diverse reaction conditions with a mean absolute error margin of 4-5%, while the reactivity of novel reactions with known and unknown substrates was classified with a balanced accuracy of 92% and 67%, respectively. The regioselectivity of the major products was accurately captured with a classifier F-score of 67%. When applied to 23 diverse commercial drug molecules, the platform successfully identified numerous opportunities for structural diversification. The influence of steric and electronic information on model performance was quantified, and a comprehensive simple user-friendly reaction format was introduced that proved to be a key enabler for seamlessly integrating deep learning and high-throughput experimentation for late-stage functionalization.

Abstract
Desymmetrization of a symmetric skeleton enables late-stage functionalization of molecules. However, reagent-controlled desymmetrization by site-selective reactions of symmetric molecules remains a difficult synthetic strategy. Here, we found that complete confinement of a symmetric molecule within a coordination cage can desymmetrize the guest conformation, making it possible to site-selectively activate or protect the otherwise equivalent reaction sites of calix[4]arene derivatives. Multistep, one-cage reactions also demonstrated the transformation of an AAAA-type calix[4]arene into a lower symmetry ABAC-type one.

Abstract
A recyclable protocol using a CeO2-nanorod catalyst for borylation of alkyl halides with B2pin2 (pin = OCMe2CMe2O) is reported. A wide range of synthetically useful alkyl boronate esters are readily obtained from primary and secondary alkyl electrophiles, including unactivated alkyl chlorides, demonstrating broad utility and functional group tolerance. Preliminary investigation revealed an involvement of in situ formed catalytically active boryl species. The catalyst can be reused for up to six runs without appreciable loss in activity. In addition, we have demonstrated the use of this recyclable catalyst for the borylation of aryl halides with B2pin2, providing valuable aryl boronate esters under neat conditions.

Abstract
The discovery of milder and robust strategies to enable the introduction of organoboronates in peptides remains conspicuously underdeveloped. Herein, we demonstrate an efficient method for the site-selective sp2 -C7-H borylation of tryptophan under metal-free condition using BBr3 directed by pivaloyl group. The versatility of this approach is that gram scale synthesis and C7-borylated N-Phth-Trp(N-Piv)(C7-BPin)-OMe was modified into various C7-substituted derivatives. Moreover, the strategy enables for the peptide elongation and late-stage borylation of peptides, natural product Brevianamide F and drug Oglufanide.

Abstract
The synthesis of the first terminal mono-boryl complexes of nickel, which are not stabilized by a pincer ligand, is reported. The reaction of the nickel bis-boryl complex cis-[Ni(i Pr2 ImMe )2 (Bcat)2 ] 1 (cat=1,2-O2 C6 H4 ) with the small donor ligand PMe3 led to a complete ligand exchange at nickel with reductive elimination of B2 cat2 and formation of the bis-NHC adduct [B2 cat2 ⋅ (i Pr2 ImMe )2 ] 3 and [Ni(PMe3 )4 ] 2 as the metal-containing species. Electrophilic attack of MeI on complex 1 or ligand dismutation of 1 with trans-[Ni(i Pr2 ImMe )2 Br2 ] led to loss of only one boryl ligand of 1 and afforded the nickel mono-boryl complexes trans-[Ni(i Pr2 ImMe )2 (Bcat)Br] 4 a and trans-[Ni(i Pr2 ImMe )2 (Bcat)I] 4 b.

Abstract
Metallocenes are privileged backbones in the fields of synthetic chemistry, catalysis, polymer science, etc. Direct C-H functionalization is undoubtedly the simplest approach for tuning the properties of metallocenes. However, owing to the presence of multiple identical C(sp2 )-H sites, this protocol often suffers from low reactivity and selectivity issues, especially for the regioselective synthesis of 1,3-difunctionalized metallocenes. Herein, an efficient iridium-catalyzed meta-selective C-H borylation of metallocenes is reported. With no need of preinstalled directing groups, this approach enables a rapid synthesis of various boronic esters based on benzoferrocenes, ferrocenes, ruthenocene, and related half sandwich complex. A broad range of electron-deficient and -rich functional groups are all compatible with the process. Notably, C-H borylation of benzoferrocenes takes place exclusively at the benzene ring, which is likely ascribed to the shielding effect of pentamethylcyclopentadiene. The synthetic utility is further demonstrated by easy scalability to gram quantities, the conversion of boron to heteroatoms including N3 , SePh, and OAc, as well as diverse cross-coupling reactions.

Abstract
Remote meta selective C-H functionalization of aromatic compounds remains a challenging problem in chemical synthesis. Here, we report an iridium catalyst bearing a bidentate pyridine-pyridone (PY-PYRI) ligand framework that efficiently catalyzes this meta selective borylation reaction. We demonstrate that the developed concept can be employed to introduce a boron functionality at the remote meta position of phenols, phenol containing bioactive and drug molecules, which was an extraordinary challenge. Moreover, we have demonstrated that the method can also be applied for the remote C6 borylation of indole derivatives including tryptophan that was the key synthetic precursor for the total synthesis of Verruculogen and Fumitremorgin A alkaloids. The inspiration of this catalytic concept was started from the O-Si secondary interaction, which by means of several more detailed control experiments and detailed computational investigations revealed that an unprecedented Bpin shift occurs during the transformation of iridium bis(boryl) complex to iridium tris(boryl) complex, which eventually control the remote meta selectivity by means of the dispersion between the designed ligand and steering silane group.

Abstract
Enamides, functional derivatives of enamines, play a significant role as synthetic targets. However, the stereoselective synthesis of these molecules has posed a longstanding challenge in organic chemistry, particularly for acyclic enamides that are less thermodynamically stable. In this study, we present a general strategy for constructing β-borylenamides by C-H borylation, which provides a versatile platform for generating the stereodefined enamides. Our approach involves the utilization of metalloid borenium cation, generated through the reaction of BBr3 and enamides in the presence of two different additives, avoiding any exogenous catalyst. Importantly, the stereoconvergent nature of this methodology allows for the use of starting materials with mixed E/Z configurations, thus highlighting the unique advantage of this chemistry. Mechanistic investigations have shed light on the pivotal roles played by the two additives, the reactive boron species, and the phenomenon of stereoconvergence.

Abstract
The difluoromethyl group (CF2H) has received great attention due to its distinct properties in recent years. Herein, we report a new strategy for postmodification of difluoromethyl compounds. Ortho-selective C-H borylation of difluoromethyl arenes is achieved by a cyclometalated mesoionic carbene-Ir complex. The regioselectivity is controlled by a hydrogen bond between CF2H and the boryl group via the outer-sphere direction.

Abstract
Catalysis by trivalent nucleophilic organophosphines has emerged as an essential tool in organic synthesis. Several new organic transformations promoted by phosphines substantiate and complement the existing synthetic chemistry tools. Mere design of the substrate and reagent combinations has introduced new modes of reactivity patterns, which are otherwise difficult to achieve. These design considerations have led to the rapid build-up of complex molecular entities and laid a solid foundation to synthesise bioactive natural products and pharmaceuticals. This article presents an overview of some of the conceptual advances, including our contributions to nucleophilic organophosphine chemistry. The scope, limitations, mechanistic insights, and applications of these metal-free transformations are discussed elaborately.

Abstract
Here, we describe a protocol for the metal-free, photo-induced borylation of unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds distal to an O-oxalate hydroxamic ester functionality. The methodology requires only substrate and bis(catecholato)diboron under light irradiation to effect the desired transformation. A range of linear and cyclic tertiary and secondary borylation products are obtained in good yields and high site-selectivity enabling the late-stage C(sp3)-H borylation of natural product derivatives and drug-like compounds.

Abstract
Metal-organic layers (MOLs) are versatile platforms for creating single-site heterogeneous catalysts. Incorporating molecular functionalities into MOLs is crucial for catalysis. In this study, we synthesized phosphine-containing MOLs constructed from Hf6-oxo secondary building units (SBUs) and phosphine ligands. The mono(phosphine)-Ir complexes generated by the metalation of TPP-MOL were highly active as heterogeneous catalysts for the C(sp2)-H borylation of a range of arenes. This research expands the diversity of MOL-based catalysts.

Abstract
This report describes the unprecedented electrooxidation of a solvent (e.g., DMF)-ligated B2 cat2 complex, whereby a solvent-stabilized boryl radical is formed via quasi-homolytic cleavage of the B-B bond in a DMF-ligated B2 cat2 radical cation. Cyclic voltammetry and density functional theory provide evidence to support this novel B-B bond activation strategy. Furthermore, a strategy for the electrochemical gem-diborylation of gem-bromides via paired electrolysis is developed for the first time, affording a range of versatile gem-diborylalkanes, which are widely used in synthetic society. Notably, this reaction approach is scalable, transition-metal-free, and requires no external activator.

Abstract
Introducing a tri-coordinate boron-based functional group (e.g., boronic ester) into an unactivated C-H bond in the absence of directing groups is an ongoing challenge in synthetic chemistry. Despite previous developments in transition metal-catalyzed and -free approaches, C-H borylation of sterically hindered arenes remains a largely unsolved problem to date. Here, we report a synthetic strategy of a two-step, precious metal-free electrophilic C-H borylation of sterically hindered alkyl- and haloarenes to generate aryl boronic esters. The first step relies on electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS) induced by cage-opening of Cs2[closo-B10H10], forming a 6-Ar-nido-B10H13 product containing a B-C bond, followed by a cage deconstruction of arylated decaboranes promoted by diols. The combination of these two steps allows for the preparation of aryl boronic esters that are hardly accessible by current direct C-H borylation approaches. This reaction does not require any precious metals, highly-engineered ligands, pre-functionalized boron reagents, or inert conditions. In addition, the unique properties of a non-classical boron cluster electrophile intermediate, B10H13+, afford a regioselectivity with unique steric and electronic control without the undesirable side reactions.

Abstract
Organoboron showed great potential in the synthesis of various high-value chemical compounds. Direct hydroboration of olefins has been witnessed over time as a mainstream method for the synthesis of organoboron compounds. In this work, an electroreductive anti-Markovnikov hydroboration approach of olefins with readily available B2pin2 to synthesize valuable organoboron compounds with high chemo- and regioselectivities under metal catalyst-free conditions was reported. This protocol exhibited broad substrate scope and good functional-group tolerance on styrenes and heteroaromatic olefins, providing synthetically useful alkylborons with high efficiency and even various deuterium borylation products with good D-incorporation when CD3CN was employed as solvent. Furthermore, gram-scale reactions and extensive functional derivatization further highlighted the potential of this method.

Abstract
C-B bond forming reactions are important methodologies in modern synthetic chemistry, since many borylated organic substrates, ranging from alkanes and alkenes to arenes and heteroarenes, are useful intermediates for the synthesis of natural products, pharmaceuticals, and organic π-conjugated materials. Among numerous borylation methods, C-Si/B-Br exchange reactions have attracted increasing attention in recent years. While experimental exploration has been continually carried out for more than two decades, mechanistic insights into this type of reaction have not yet been clearly established. To address this deficiency of knowledge, we performed density functional theory (DFT) calculations to map out the reaction pathways for a range of boron-silicon exchange reactions between boron tribromide (BBr3) and trimethylsilyl-substituted arenes (TMSAr). Our computational analyses have disclosed the energetic, structural, and electronic properties for key stationary points on the potential energy surfaces (PES) in both the gas and solution (CH2Cl2) phases.

Abstract
The first nickel bis-boryl complexes cis-[Ni( i Pr2ImMe)2(Bcat)2], cis-[Ni( i Pr2ImMe)2(Bpin)2] and cis-[Ni( i Pr2ImMe)2(Beg)2] are reported, which were prepared via the reaction of a source of [Ni( i Pr2ImMe)2] with the diboron(4) compounds B2cat2, B2pin2 and B2eg2 ( i Pr2ImMe = 1,3-di-iso-propyl-4,5-dimethylimidazolin-2-ylidene; B2cat2 = bis(catecholato)diboron; B2pin2 = bis(pinacolato)diboron; B2eg2 = bis(ethylene glycolato)diboron). X-ray diffraction and DFT calculations strongly suggest that a delocalized, multicenter bonding scheme dictates the bonding situation of the NiB2 moiety in these square planar complexes, reminiscent of the bonding situation of "non-classical" H2 complexes. [Ni( i Pr2ImMe)2] also efficiently catalyzes the diboration of alkynes using B2cat2 as the boron source under mild conditions. In contrast to the known platinum-catalyzed diboration, the nickel system follows a different mechanistic pathway, which not only provides the 1,2-borylation product in excellent yields, but also provides an efficient approach to other products such as C-C coupled borylation products or rare tetra-borylated compounds. The mechanism of the nickel-catalyzed alkyne borylation was examined by means of stoichiometric reactions and DFT calculations. Oxidative addition of the diboron reagent to nickel is not dominant; the first steps of the catalytic cycle are coordination of the alkyne to [Ni( i Pr2ImMe)2] and subsequent borylation at the coordinated and, thus, activated alkyne to yield complexes of the type [Ni(NHC)2(η2-cis-(Bcat)(R)C[double bond, length as m-dash]C(R)(Bcat))], exemplified by the isolation and structural characterization of [Ni( i Pr2ImMe)2(η2-cis-(Bcat)(Me)C[double bond, length as m-dash]C(Me)(Bcat))] and [Ni( i Pr2ImMe)2(η2-cis-(Bcat)(H7C3)C[double bond, length as m-dash]C(C3H7)(Bcat))].

Abstract
Transition metal-catalyzed site- and stereoselective C-H activation of strained (hetero)cycloalkanes remains a formidable challenge. We herein report a carbamate-directed iridium-catalyzed asymmetric β-C(sp3 )-H borylation of cyclopropanol derivatives. A variety of densely functionalized cyclopropanols were obtained in good enantioselectivities via desymmetrization and kinetic resolution. In addition, site-selective C(sp3 )-H borylation of methine groups furnished α-borylated (hetero)cycloalkanols in moderate to good yields. The synthetic utility of the method was further shown in a gram-scale synthesis and diverse downstream transformations of borylated products.

Abstract
C-H/Et-Al exchange in zirconium-catalyzed reactions of saturated hydrocarbons and AlEt3 affords versatile organoaluminum compounds and ethane. The grafting of commercially available Zr(OtBu)4 on silica/alumina gives monopodal ≡SiO-Zr(OtBu)3 surface pre-catalyst sites that are activated in situ by ligand exchange with AlEt3. The catalytic C-H alumination of dodecane at 150 °C followed by quenching in air affords n-dodecanol as the major product, revealing selectivity for methyl group activation. Shorter hydrocarbon or alcohol products were not detected under these conditions. Catalytic reactions of cyclooctane and AlEt3, however, afford ring-opened products, indicating that C-C bond cleavage occurs readily in methyl group-free reactants. This selectivity for methyl group alumination enables the C-H alumination of polyethylenes, polypropylene, polystyrene, and poly-α-olefin oils without significant chain deconstruction. In addition, the smallest hydrocarbon, methane, undergoes selective mono-alumination under solvent-free catalytic conditions, providing a direct route to Al-Me species.

Abstract
Herein, we describe an iron-catalyzed benzylic C-H borylation reaction. The reaction targets primary and secondary C(sp3)-H bonds to deliver high-value boronic esters under mild conditions with short (7-8 min) reaction times. Functional groups are well tolerated, and complete site selectivity is observed in the presence of multiple benzylic C-H bonds.

Abstract
Iridium-catalyzed borylations of aromatic C-H bonds are highly attractive transformations because of the diversification possibilities offered by the resulting boronates. These transformations are best carried out using bidentate bipyridine or phenanthroline ligands, and tend to be governed by steric factors, therefore resulting in the competitive functionalization of meta and/or para positions. We have now discovered that a subtle change in the bipyridine ligand, namely, the introduction of a CF3 substituent at position 5, enables a complete change of regioselectivity in the borylation of aromatic amides, allowing the synthesis of a wide variety of ortho-borylated derivatives. Importantly, thorough computational studies suggest that the exquisite regio- and chemoselectivity stems from unusual outer-sphere interactions between the amide group of the substrate and the CF3 -substituted aryl ring of the bipyridine ligand.

Abstract
Non-metal-catalyzed C-H borylation of arenes represents a sustainable and environment-friendly approach for the functionalization of arenes. Despite its promise as an alternative to traditional transition-metal systems, its substrate scope is generally limited to electron-rich arenes, thus hindering its application in organic synthesis. Herein, we report the development of a borenium-ion catalyst which can borylate unactivated arenes under ambient conditions with 4-chlorocatecholborane (HBcatCl) as borylation reagent. This metal-free catalytic system is suitable for the borylation of C-H bonds in sterically encumbered positions, which has been a challenging task for transition-metal systems. Additionally, this catalytic system allows para-selective one-pot borylation of phenols, which has not been achieved by using transition-metal systems. Our mechanistic investigations and computational studies support a synergistic activation of the H-BcatCl bond by the arene substrate and the borenium-ion catalyst. This generates a Wheland intermediate and a neutral hydroborane species and is followed by deprotonation of the Wheland intermediate with the hydroborane species. The latter step of C-H bond cleavage is likely the rate-limiting step.

Abstract
Acyl moiety is a common structural unit in organic molecules, thus acylation methods have been widely explored to construct various functional compounds. While the traditional Friedel-Crafts acylation processes work to allow viable construction of arylketones under harsh acid conditions, recent progress on developing acylation methods focused on the new reactivity discovery by exploiting versatile and easily accessible acylating reagents. Of them, alcohols are cheap, have low toxicity, and are naturally abundant feedstocks; thus, they were recently used as ideal acyl precursors in molecule synthesis for ketones, esters, amides, etc. In this review, we display and discuss recent advances in employing alcohols as unusual acyl sources to form C-C and C-heteroatom bonds, with emphasis on the substrate scope, limitations, and mechanism.

Abstract
Despite recent developments, selective C(sp3)-H borylation of feedstock amines remains a formidable challenge. Herein, we have developed a general, mild, and photoinduced transition metal- and strong base-free method for α-C(sp3)-H borylation of amines. This protocol features a regioselective 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer process to access key α-aminoalkyl radical intermediate using commercially available easy-to-install/remove iodobenzoyl radical translocating group. Remarkably, this general, efficient, and operationally simple method allows activation of primary and secondary α-C-H sites of a broad range of acyclic and cyclic amines toward highly regio- and diastereoselective synthesis of valuable α-aminoboronates. Utility of this protocol has been demonstrated by its employment in late-stage borylation of structurally complex amines and formal C-H arylation reaction of amines. Thus, it is expected that this operationally simple, general, and practical method will find broad application in organic synthesis and drug discovery.

Abstract
In essentially one-pot, using Ir- and Pd-catalysis, tris(arene)-functionalized cationic [4]helicenes are synthesized with full regioselectivity and enantiospecificity starting from a trivial precursor (17 examples). This poly-addition of aryl groups improves key optical properties, that is, fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes. Electronic circular dichroism and circularly polarized luminescence signatures are observed up to the far-red domain, in particular with additional arenes prone to aggregation.

Abstract
Aryl borates lie at the heart of carbon-carbon bond couplings, and they are widely applied to the synthesis of functional materials, pharmaceutical compounds, and natural products. Currently, synthetic methods for aryl borates are mostly limited to metal-catalyzed routes, and nonmetallic strategies remain comparatively underdeveloped. Herein, we report a mild, scalable, visible-light-induced cross-coupling between aryl dibenzothiophenium triflate salts and bis(catecholato)-diboron for the construction of C-B bonds in the absence of base, transition metal-ligand complex, or photoredox catalyst. Mechanistic studies reveal that this transformation is achieved through an electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex activation in the absence of a catalyst. The mild reaction conditions allow the preparation of aromatic borates in good yields with excellent functional group tolerance. This photochemical protocol was also successfully applied to the late-stage modification of natural products and the synthesis of a drug intermediate, greatly demonstrating broadened utility.

Abstract
Electrostatic attraction between two groups of opposite charge, typically known as ion-pairing, offers unique opportunities for the design of systems to enable selectivity control in chemical reactions. Catalysis using noncovalent interactions is an established and vibrant research area, but it is noticeable that hydrogen bonding interactions are still the main interaction of choice in system design. Opposite charges experience the powerful force of Coulombic attraction and have the ability to exert fundamental influence on the outcome of reactions that involve charged reagents, intermediates or catalysts. In this Perspective, we will examine how ion-pairing interactions have been used to control selectivity in C-H bond functionalization processes. This broad class of reactions provides an interesting and thought-provoking lens through which to examine the application of ion-pairing design strategies because it is one that encompasses great mechanistic diversity, poses significant selectivity challenges, and perhaps most importantly is of immense interest to synthetic chemists in both industry and academia. We survey reactions that proceed via radical and ionic mechanisms alongside those that involve transition metal catalysis and will deal with control of site-selectivity and enantioselectivity. We anticipate that as this emerging area develops, it will become an ever-more important design strategy for selectivity control.

Abstract
Butafulvene is a constitutional isomer of benzene, comprising a cyclobutene skeleton bearing two exocyclic conjugated methylene units. As a result of the intrinsic high strain energy and anti-aromaticity, the preparation of butafulvene compounds has been a fundamental issue for the development of butafulvene chemistry. Here an efficient palladium-catalysed coupling protocol involving propargylic compounds has been developed, providing a solid and versatile strategy for the rapid assembly of symmetric butafulvene derivatives. Based on mechanistic studies, two complementary mechanisms, both involving palladium catalysis, have been confirmed. With the mechanism unveiled, the synthesis of non-symmetric butafulvenes has also been achieved. Advantages of this strategy include tolerance to a wide range of propargylic molecules, mild reaction conditions, simple catalytic systems and easy scalability. The synthetic potential of the products as platform molecules for cyclobutene derivatives has also been demonstrated.

Abstract
The C-H bond activation of methylquinolines, quinoline, 3-methoxyquinoline, and 3-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline promoted by the square-planar rhodium(I) complex RhH{κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} [1; xant(PiPr2)2 = 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene] has been systematically studied. Results reveal that the activation of the heteroring is preferred over the activation of the carbocycle, and the activated position depends upon the position of the substituent in the substrate. Thus, 3-, 4-, and 5-methylquinoline reacts with 1 to quantitatively form square-planar rhodium(I)-(2-quinolinyl) derivatives, whereas 2-, 6-, and 7-methylquinoline quantitatively leads to rhodium(I)-(4-quinolinyl) species. By contrast, quinoline and 8-methylquinoline afford mixtures of the respective rhodium(I)-(2-quinolinyl) and -(4-quinolinyl) complexes. 3-Methoxyquinoline displays the same behavior as that of 3-methylquinoline, while 3-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline yields a mixture of rhodium(I)-(2-quinolinyl), -(4-quinolinyl), -(6-quinolinyl), and -(7-quinolinyl) isomers.

Abstract
![]()
The Ir-catalyzed C–H borylation of fluoroquinolines
has
been realized. The quinoline boronic ester formed undergoes a range
of
important transformations of relevance to medicinal chemistry. Judicious
choice of the substituent at C4 on the quinoline facilitated the unmasking
of a fluoroquinolone—the core structure of many antibiotics.

Abstract
Unsaturated 16-electron iridium and rhodium complexes bearing a silyl-bipyridine-based SiNN-pincer ligand (BpySiNN) were synthesised and characterised by X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. The iridium-BpySiNN complex facilitated the catalytic C(sp2)-H borylation of arenes to give arylboronate esters in high yields (≥93%) under mild conditions (∼40 °C).

Abstract
Chiral organoboronates have emerged as a key intermediate in the development of pharmaceuticals and materials science. Therefore, several attempts have been made to design various synthetic methods to easily furnish these compounds during the past few decades. Inter alia, asymmetric catalysis has been increasing rapidly as a viable, practical and beneficial strategy for their preparation. In this respect, recent years have witnessed significant progress in aliphatic C-H borylation as the generated carbon-boron bonds are largely utilized to produce other carbon-carbon, carbon-nitrogen and carbon-oxygen bonds. This review presents a detailed overview and analysis of transition metal-catalyzed asymmetric C(sp3)-H borylation strategies. Overall, it assembles all the recent developments in this particular synthetic avenue up to March 2022.

Abstract
A remote C(sp3 )-H bond asymmetric borylation of unactivated alkenes was achieved by bimetallic relay catalysis. The reaction proceeded through reversible and consecutive β-H elimination/olefin insertion promoted by CoH species generated in situ, followed by copper-catalyzed asymmetric protoboration. The use of this synergistic Co/Cu catalysis protocol allowed the enantioselective protoboration of various unactivated terminal alkenes and internal alkenes, as well as an unrefined mixture of olefin isomers, at the distal less-reactive β-position to a functional group, leading to chiral organoboronates.
