Three-and four-membered rings, widespread motifs in nature and medicinal chemistry, have
fascinated chemists ever since their discovery. However, due to energetic considerations …

Although known for over 90 years, only in the past two decades has the chemistry of diboron
(4) compounds been extensively explored. Many interesting structural features and reaction …

Organoboronates represent a cornerstone functional group in modern synthesis owing to
their unique reactivity and divergent synthetic capability. Copper catalysis has become one …

Organoboron compounds are valuable synthetic intermediates that find application in a
diverse variety of processes including both C–X and C–C bond-forming transformations …

Transition metal-catalysed cross-coupling reactions are widely used for construction of
carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bonds. However, compared to aryl or alkenyl …

Non‐racemic chiral boronic esters are recognised as immensely valuable building blocks in
modern organic synthesis. Their stereospecific transformation into a variety of functional …

Organoboronic acids and their derivatives are useful reagents in carbon–carbon and carbon–
heteroatom bond formations. 1 In addition to having reasonable reactivities, organoboronic …

Hexafluoroisopropan-2-ol (HFIP) has been found to be an unusually beneficial solvent for
undertaking hypervalent iodine-initiated [2+ 2] cycloaddition of styrenes. For the initiator …

Copper-catalyzed difunctionalization of unactivated carbonsingle bondcarbon multiple
bonds involving a carbonsingle bondcarbon bond formation process is reviewed …

This review discusses recent advances in the chemistry of saturated boronic acids,
boronates, and trifluoroborates. Applications of the title compounds in the design of boron …
