Radical instability in aid of efficiency: A powerful route to highly functional MIDA Boronates

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The inability of the sp3 boron in MIDA boronates to stabilize an adjacent radical makes possible the efficient addition of a wide array of xanthates to vinyl MIDA boronate, leading to highly functionalized and diverse aliphatic organoboron structures. The lack of radical stabilization also allows the exchange of the xanthate in the adducts with a bromine. In one case, the bromine was substituted to generate a cyclopropyl MIDA derivative.
