Catalyst Controlled Regiodivergent Arylboration of Dienes

J Am Chem Soc. 2017 Jul 26;139(29):9823-9826. doi: 10.1021/jacs.7b05477. Epub 2017 Jul 12.

Abstract

A method for the regiodivergent arylboration of dienes is presented. These reactions allow for the formation of a diverse range of synthetically versatile products from simple precursors. Through mechanistic studies, these reactions likely operate by initial addition of a Cu-Bpin complex across the diene followed by Pd-catalyzed cross coupling with an aryl halide or pseudohalide.
