A Facile Route to Melaminophenyl Boronates using 2, 4-Diazido-6- Chloro-1, 3, 5-Triazine as an Electrophilic Reagent

We have synthesised a novel class of melaminyl derivative, containing a phenyl boronate or boronate ester group. The synthetic methodology employed was designed to be facile involving the use of 2, 4-diazido-6-chloro-1, 3, 5-triazine as an electrophilic reagent for nucleophilic substitution of chlorine with a weakly reactive amine. The reagent was chosen with a view to improve the organic solubility of the product and aid isolation by allowing the reaction to be followed by fluorescence quenching (Tlc, F234) and IR (the presence of two N3 peaks).

2-Iodosylbenzoic acid activated by trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride: efficient oxidant and electrophilic reagent for preparation of iodonium salts

2-Iodosylbenzoic acid in the presence of trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride is an efficient oxidant and electrophilic reagent useful for preparation of the corresponding alkenyl and aryliodonium salts. Compared to the previously reported...

Trifluoromethyl-substituted selenium ylide: a broadly applicable electrophilic trifluoromethylating reagent

An easily available, air/moisture insensitive and broadly applicable electrophilic reagent trifluoromethyl-substituted selenium ylide 1a and its reactions with a variety of nucleophiles including β-ketoesters and silyl enol ethers, aryl/heteroaryl boronic acids, electron-rich heteroarenes and sulfinates were described.

An electrophilic reagent for the synthesis of OCHFMe-containing molecules

Herein the synthesis of a novel and bench stable electrophilic reagent to construct the OCFHMe motif from O-nucleophiles has been described.
