Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202401782. [PMID: 38818649 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202401782] [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: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024]
Abstract
gem-Diborylalkanes are highly valuable building blocks in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical chemistry due to their ability to participate in multi-step cross-coupling transformations, allowing for the rapid generation of molecular complexity. While progress has been made in their synthetic metholodology, the construction of β-tertiary and C(sp3)-rich gem-diborylalkanes remains a synthetic challenge due to substrate limitations and steric hindrance issues. An approach is presented that utilizes synergistic photoredox and copper catalysis to achieve efficient C(sp3)-C(sp3) cross-coupling of alkyl N-hydroxyphthalimide esters, which can easily be obtained from alkyl carboxylic acids, with diborylmethyl species, providing a series of C(sp3)-rich gem-diborylalkanes with 1°, 2°, and even 3° β positions. Furthermore, this approach can also be applied to complex medicinal compounds and natural products, offering rapid access to molecular complexity and late-stage functionalization of C(sp3)-rich drug candidates. Mechanistic experiments revealed that diborylmethyl Cu(I) species participated in both the photoredox process and the key C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond-forming step.

Abstract
The wide applications of alpha-boryl carbanions in selective coupling with organohalides, imines/carbonyls and conjugated unsaturated substrates has become an interesting tool for organic synthesis. Strategically, the inclusion of heteroatoms, such as Si, S, N, F, Cl, Br and I in the alpha position opens a new venue towards multifunctionalities in molecular design. Here, a conceptual and practical view on powerful carbanions, containing α-silicoboron, α-thioboron, α-haloboron and α-aminoboron is given, as well as a prespective on their efficient application for selective electrophilic trapping.

Abstract
General methods for the preparation of geminal bis(boronates) are of great interest due to their widespread applications in organic synthesis. While the terminal gem-diboron compounds are readily accessible, the construction of the sterically encumbered, internal analogues has remained a prominent challenge. Herein, we report a formal umpolung strategy to access these valuable building blocks. The readily available 1,1-diborylalkanes were first converted into the corresponding α-halogenated derivatives, which then serve as electrophilic components, undergoing a formal substitution with a diverse array of nucleophiles to form a series of C-C, C-O, C-S, and C-N bonds. This protocol features good tolerance to steric hindrance and a wide variety of functional groups and heterocycles. Notably, this strategy can also be extended to the synthesis of diaryl and terminal gem-diboron compounds, therefore providing a general approach to various types of geminal bis(boronates).

Abstract
The incorporation of two distinct boryl groups at the same carbon center in organic molecules has attracted growing research interest due to its potential for facilitating controlled, precise synthesis through stepwise dual carbon-boron bond transformations. Here we report a method to access unsymmetrical 1,1-diborylalkene (UDBA) stereoselectively via the reaction of readily available alkynes with a neutral sp2 -sp3 diboron reagent (NHC)BH2 -Bpin (NHC=N-heterocyclic carbene). Attributing to the chemically easily distinguishable nature of the sp2 and sp3 boryl moieties, controllable stepwise derivatization of the resultant UDBAs is realized. This process leads to various multifunctionalized olefins and organoborons, such as acylboranes, which are difficult to prepare by other methods.

A series of corresponding products are obtained with good to excellent yields under a carbon monoxide atmosphere (10 bar). In addition, wide functional-group tolerance can be observed.

Abstract
The synthesis of 1,1-diborylalkanes from readily available alkenes is an appealing method. The density functional theory (DFT) method was employed to investigate the reaction mechanism of 1,1-diborylalkanes, which was synthesized from alkenes and a borane, and the reaction was catalyzed by a zirconium complex Cp2ZrCl2. The entire reaction is divided into two cycles: dehydrogenative boration to form vinyl boronate esters (VBEs) and hydroboration of VBEs. This article focuses on the hydroboration cycle and elaborates on the role of the reducing reagents in the equilibrium of self-contradictory reactivity (dehydrogenative boration and hydroboration). The H2 and HBpin pathways were investigated as the reducing reagents in the hydroboration process. The calculated results showed that it is more advantageous to use H2 as a reducing agent (path A). Furthermore, the σ-bond metathesis is the rate-determining step (RDS) with an energetic span of 21.4 kcal/mol. This is consistent with the self-contradictory reactivity balance proposed in the experiment. The reaction modes of the hydroboration process were also discussed. These analyses revealed the origin of selectivity in this boration reaction, in which the σ-bond metathesis of HBpin needs to overcome the strong interaction between HBpin and the Zr metal. Meanwhile, the origin of the selectivity of different positions of H2 is the interaction between the σ(H1-H2) → σ*(Zr1-C1) overlap and these findings have implications for catalyst design and application.

An unprecedented and challenging multicomponent reaction has been developed that allows for the direct transformation of acyl chlorides with alkynes into the corresponding saturated β-boryl ketones via Pd/Cu-catalyzed coupling and boration with ethyl acetate as the hydrogen sources. Various β-boryl ketones were synthesized in good to excellent yields with broad functional group tolerance. In addition, the introduction of boron groups into the products provides substantial opportunities for further conversions.

Abstract
The hydroboration of alkynes with bis(pinacolato)diboron is a useful method for the synthesis of vinyl boronate esters, which are essential intermediates in organic syntheses. Copper catalysts have been used extensively in these reactions. However, previously reported Cu-catalyst systems inevitably require additives and elevated temperatures. Herein, we report, for the first time, a simple and efficient hydroboration of alkynes under additive-free and mild reaction conditions (i.e., at a temperature of 30 °C) using a copper nitride nanocube (Cu3N NC) catalyst. A wide range of alkynes can be transformed into their corresponding boronate esters. Cu3N NCs are also applicable in the hydroboration of alkynes with tetrahydroxydiboron to synthesize vinyl boronic acids. Moreover, the Cu3N NCs were easily separated by simple filtration and could be reused several times without any loss of their original activity. Hence, these highly active and reusable Cu3N NC catalysts offer an environmentally friendly route for the efficient production of vinyl boronates.

Abstract
While 1,1-diboryl (gem-diboryl) compounds are valuable synthetic building blocks, currently, related studies have mainly focused on those 1,1-diboryl alkanes without a hetero functional group in the α-position. gem-Diboryl compounds with an α-hetero substituent, though highly versatile, have been limitedly accessible and thus rarely utilized. Herein, we have developed the first α-dihydroboration of heteroalkynes leading to the efficient construction of gem-diboryl, hetero-, and tetra-substituted carbon centers. This straightforward, practical, mild, and atom-economic reaction is an attractive complement to the conventional multistep synthetic strategy relying on deprotonation of gem-diborylmethane by a strong base. Specifically, [Ir(cod)(OMe)]2 was found to be uniquely effective for this process of thioalkynes, leading to excellent α-regioselectivity when delivering the two boryl groups, which is remarkable in view of the many competitive paths including monohydroboration, 1,2-dihydroboration, dehydrodiboration, triboration, tetraboration, etc. Control experiments combined with DFT calculations suggested that this process involves two sequential hydroboration events. The second hydroboration requires a higher energy barrier due to severe steric repulsion in generating the highly congested α-sulfenyl gem-diboryl carbon center, a structural motif that was almost unknown before.

Abstract
Acetimidates, a valuable intermediate has been well explored as versatile synthon in a number of organic transformations particularly as suitable donors in glycosylation reactions. Herein, we explored acetimidates to furnish high-to-excellent yield of diverse glycosylated esters under one-pot mild reaction condition. The commercially available trichloroacetonitrile is implemented for the activation of carboxylic acid via in situ generation of trichloroacetimidate, which was subsequently attacked by sugar alcohols to deliver high-to-excellent yields of desired glycosylated esters. The devised method has some notable features such as metal-free condition, one-pot mild reaction condition, easy-handling, high-to-excellent yields, and broad substrate scope.

Abstract
Fluorine-containing organoboron compounds have emerged as novel building blocks in chemical synthesis; among them, fluorinated sp2/sp3 diborylated compounds are particularly appealing, since they might undergo chemoselective and diversified transformations of different C-B bonds with fluorinated functionality, thus bringing versatility and complexity to the eventual products. However, expedient, synthetic strategies for the construction of such fluorinated diborylative compounds are very sparse. Herein, we disclose enantioselective Cu-catalyzed sp2/sp3 diborylations of 1-chloro-1-trifluoromethylalkenes, leading to diborylated compounds bearing a gem-difluoroalkenyl moiety; most intriguingly, the new formed C-B bonds include one stereoselective and optically pure Csp3-B bond. Further transformations on the eventual products demonstrated the values of our presented strategy.

Abstract
Although hydroboration of simple ketones and alkynes have been well-established, little is known about the unique hydroboration reactivity for ynones, a family of important building blocks. Herein we report a new reaction mode of ynones leading to structurally novel and synthetically useful but previously inaccessible products, vinyl α-hydroxylboronates, under mild ruthenium-catalyzed hydroboration conditions. This reaction features high efficiency, a broad scope, and complete chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity, in spite of many possible competitive pathways. Both control experiments and detailed DFT studies suggested a two-step mechanism, involving initial rate-determining conjugate addition of hydroborane to form the key boryl allenolate intermediate followed by a fast second hydroboration of the enolate motif of the allenolate. Notably, direct 1,4-addition of hydroborane to carbonyl-conjugated alkynes also represents a new mode of reactivity. Despite the overwhelming complexity of this process, which involves selectivity control in almost every step, a thorough and detailed computation on a large set of possible transition states explained the unusual reactivity and intrinsic origin of selectivity.

Enantioselective Cu-catalyzed double hydroboration of alkynes to access chiral gem-diborylalkanes. Nat Commun 2022; 13:3524.

Abstract
Chiral organoborons are of great value in asymmetric synthesis, functional materials, and medicinal chemistry. The development of chiral bis(boryl) alkanes, especially optically enriched 1,1-diboron compounds, has been greatly inhibited by the lack of direct synthetic protocols. Therefore, it is very challenging to develop a simple and effective strategy to obtain chiral 1,1-diborylalkanes. Herein, we develop an enantioselective copper-catalyzed cascade double hydroboration of terminal alkynes and highly enantioenriched gem-diborylalkanes were readily obtained. Our strategy uses simple terminal alkynes and two different boranes to construct valuable chiral gem-bis(boryl) alkanes with one catalytic and one ligand pattern, which represents the simplest and most straightforward strategy for constructing such chiral gem-diborons. Optically enriched 1,1-diboron compounds are significantly underdeveloped because of the paucity of the straightforward synthetic protocols. Herein, the authors report an enantioselective copper-catalyzed cascade double hydroboration of terminal alkynes to access highly enantioenriched gem-diborylalkanes.

Abstract
Small ring compounds are fascinating molecules and have been used as valuable compounds in organic synthesis. In this study, a carborane-fused four-membered boracycle bearing an electron precise B-B bond, 1,2-[BBrSMe2]2-o-C2B10H10, was synthesized via the reaction of 1,2-Li2-o-carborane with B2Br4(SMe2)2. This novel boracycle can be used as a "strain-release" compound to achieve diboration of alkenes and alkynes, leading to the generation of ring-expansion products. Interestingly, when bis(trimethylsilyl) acetylene was employed, an allene-functionalized six-membered boracycle was obtained. Moreover, DFT calculations were conducted to shed light on the reaction mechanism.

Abstract
Any attempt to facilitate a new generation of C-B bonds represents a useful tool in organic synthesis. In addition, if that approach highlights the nucleophilic character of boryl moieties in the absence of transition metal complexes, the challenge to create new reactive platforms becomes an opportunity. We have been deeply involved in the experimental and theoretical validation of C-B bond formation by means of alkoxide activation of tetra-alkoxy diboron reagents and here is presented a convenient guide to understand the concept and the applications.

Abstract
Enantioenriched 1,1-silylboryl alkanes possess silyl and boryl groups that are both connected to the same stereogenic carbon center at well-defined orientations. As these chiral multifunctionalized compounds potentially offer two synthetic handles, they are highly valued building blocks in asymmetric synthesis as well as medicinal chemistry. Despite the potential usefulness, efficient synthetic approaches for their preparation are scarce. Seeking to address this deficiency, an enantioselective cobalt-catalyzed hydrosilylation/hydroboration cascade of terminal alkynes has been realized. This protocol constitutes an impressive case of chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity wherein the two different hydrofunctionalization events are exquisitely controlled by a single set of metal catalyst and ligand, an operation which would usually require two separate catalytic systems. Downstream transformations of enantioenriched 1,1-silyboryl alkanes led to various valuable chiral compounds. Mechanistic studies suggest that the present reaction undergoes highly regioselective and stereocontrolled sequential hydrosilylation and hydroboration processes.

Abstract
ConspectusOrganoboron compounds are a class of multifunctional reagents for the construction of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds in modern synthetic chemistry. The transformations of organoboron compounds are usually carried out through tetracoordinate boron intermediates and mainly include additions to unsaturated bonds, rearrangement reactions, transmetalation reactions, and so on. Although great progress has been achieved in improving tetracoordinate boron intermediates, there are still shortcomings, such as sparse activation modes, a paucity of reaction strategies and difficulties in stereoselective control. In this Account, we mainly discuss our recent advances in the development of unconventional transformations of organoboron compounds based on the design of tetracoordinate boron intermediates, including the following three topics: (1) the construction of C-B bonds; (2) the construction of C-C bonds; (3) the design and application of chiral tetracoordinate boron.The development of new strategies to build C-B bonds is of great interest for chemists. We have developed tandem reactions involving multiple tetracoordinate boron intermediates for the selective borylations of alkynes and the synthesis of stable tetracoordinate boron, including a domino-borylation-protodeboronation (DBP) strategy for selective borylations of alkynes, highly regio-, stereo-, and chemoselective Cu-catalyzed diborylation of β-CF3-1,3-enynes and cascade B-Cl/C-B cross-metathesis and C-H bond borylation for the synthesis of tetracoordinate triarylboranes. We have also developed novel strategies involving tetracoordinate boron intermediates to form C-C bonds because the formation of C-C bonds is an enduring theme of organic chemistry. We disclosed long distance or multiple migration reactions and novel coupling partners in transmetalation reactions, such as long distance 1,4-migrations of tetracoordinate nitrile oxide boron and nitrilium boron intermediates, multiple migrations of tetracoordinate isocyanide boron intermediate, palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of thioureas or thioamides, copper-catalyzed atroposelective Michael-type addition, and a palladium-catalyzed atroposelective Catellani reaction. Moreover, in terms of stereoselective control of the tetracoordinate boron intermediate, we found that a chiral tricoordinate boron complex could activate water to form a chiral tetracoordinate boron complex with Brønsted acidity, which has been successfully applied with high enantioselectivity to the asymmetric catalytic reduction of challenging indoles.This Account summarizes our recent efforts using unconventional transformations of organoboron compounds for the design of tetracoordinate boron intermediates, which not only achieved the precise construction of a wide range of diverse C-B bonds and C-C bonds but also developed a novel chiral Brønsted acid for the asymmetric catalytic reduction of challenging indoles.

Abstract
A general and atom‐economical synthesis of 1,1‐diborylalkanes from alkenes and a borane without the need for an additional H2 acceptor is reported for the first time. The key to our success is the use of an earth‐abundant zirconium‐based catalyst, which allows a balance of self‐contradictory reactivities (dehydrogenative boration and hydroboration) to be achieved. Our method avoids using an excess amount of another alkene as an H2 acceptor, which was required in other reported systems. Furthermore, substrates such as simple long‐chain aliphatic alkenes that did not react before also underwent 1,1‐diboration in our system. Significantly, the unprecedented 1,1‐diboration of internal alkenes enabled the preparation of 1,1‐diborylalkanes.

Abstract
Since a nucleophilic sp2 boron species can be generated in situ under the combined action of an inorganic base, B2pin2 and methanol, research on base-promoted nucleophilic borylation of unsaturated compounds has attracted significant attention. A series of multi-borylated compounds, such as alkyl 1,2-bis(boronates), gem-diborylalkanes, and 1,1,2-tris(boronates), are constructed based on this strategy. These multi-borylated compounds can in turn undergo selective protodeboronation, creating a variety of useful boron-containing compounds. This Feature article documents the development of base-promoted domino-borylation-protodeboronation (DBP) strategies and their applications in organic synthesis.

Anti-vicinal diboronates were fabricated from easily available diarylethynes and B2pin2 via a base-catalyzed domino-borylation-protodeboronation (DBP) strategy under transition-metal-free conditions. Under the standard conditions, reactants with a range of different classes of functional groups on the rings, such as MeO, MeS, CF3O, Me2N, TMS, I, Br, Cl, F, and the thiophene ring, were tolerated. Downstream transformation of the vicinal diboronates provided a facile pathway for obtaining vicinal diols by mild oxidation with NaBO3, and a new deuteriation technique was developed in order to acquire 1,2-diarylethanes-1,2-d2 and 1,2-diarylethanes-1,1,2,2-d4. The new deuteriation strategy developed in this study may provide a new research direction for deuteriation chemistry.

Recent Synthesis Developments of Organoboron Compounds via Metal-Free Catalytic Borylation of Alkynes and Alkenes. Molecules 2018; 24:molecules24010101. [PMID: 30597884 PMCID: PMC6337501 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24010101] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2018] [Revised: 12/18/2018] [Accepted: 12/19/2018] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Diboron reagents have been traditionally regarded as "Lewis acids", which can react with simple Lewis base to create a significant nucleophilic character in one of boryl moieties. In particular, bis(pinacolato)diboron (B₂pin₂) reacts with simple Lewis bases, such as N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), phosphines and alkoxides. This review focuses on the application of trivalent nucleophilic boryl synthon in the selective preparation of organoboron compounds, mainly through metal-free catalytic diboration and the β-boration reactions of alkynes and alkenes.
