Synthetic Utility

Significant developments have been achieved in recent years toward the utilization of (RO)2B-B(OR)2 for exploring transition metal-free organic transformations in organic synthesis. Among the various combinations of Lewis bases with diborons developed so far, pyridine-derivatives are simple, commercially available, and cheap compounds to expand the synthetic utility of diborons by generating borylpyridine anions and pyridine-stabilized boryl radicals via the B-B bond cleavage. These borylpyridine species mediate a series of transformations in both a catalytic and stoichiometric manner for C-X activation (X = Halogen, CO2H, NR2) and concomitant C-borylation, hydroboration, C-C bond formation, and reduction reactions.

A transition-metal-free conversion of 2-arylindoles to 2-aminoarylphenones, using environmentally benign O2 as the sole oxidant, has been developed. This novel oxidative dearomatization process involves cleavage of two C–C and one C–N bonds followed by new C–C and C–O bond formation.

Oxidative Coupling Reaction

A metal-free oxidative coupling reaction of trifluoromethyl β-diketones with alcohols for the synthesis of α-keto esters in good to excellent yields has been developed. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that an I2/TBHP promoted sequential iodination, C–C bond cleavage, C–O bond formation and oxidation pathway is involved in this reaction.
