The synthesis of organoboron compounds have attracted the attention of the synthetic community. In particular, molecules with C(sp2)-B bonds enable the transformation to new C−C or C-heteroatom bonds by well-established methodologies. Alkenyl boronates have the possibility for further conversion of the boron moiety or functionalization of the double bond. This review gives an overview on the recent methodologies for the selective preparation of the challenging highly substituted alkenyl boronates from alkynes.

Metal-Free Temperature-Controlled Regiodivergent Borylative Cyclizations of Enynes: BCl3-Promoted Skeletal Rearrangement

Ana Milián, Manuel A. Fernández-Rodríguez,* Estíbaliz Merino, Juan J. Vaquero, Patricia García-García*

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2022, Accepted Articles
DOI: 10.1002/anie.202205651

Metal-free borylative cyclization of biphenyl-embedded 1,3,5-trien-7-ynes in the presence of simple and inexpensive BCl3 provided synthetically useful borylated building blocks. The outcome of the process depends on the reaction temperature, with borylated phenanthrenes obtained at 60 ºC and phenanthrene-fused borylated cyclobutanes formed at 0 ºC. Based on DFT calculations, a mechanism for these novel transformations has been proposed, which involves an uncommon skeletal rearrangement, including migration of a methyl group and alkyne fragmentation, unprecedented in BCl3-promoted cyclization reactions.

Electrochemically Driven One-pot Oxidative Conversion of Arylhydrazines into Aromatic Iodides

Noemi Salardón, Guillermo Otárola, Clara Mañas, Estíbaliz Merino, Belen Batanero*

J. Environ. Chem. Eng. 2022, in press, Open access
DOI: 10.1016/j.jece.2022.107486

The efficient metal-free electrosynthesis of 2,4-dinitrophenyl iodide is here reported starting from 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine. Surprisingly this dinitrated arylhydrazine minimizes, under the applied experimental conditions, any anodic multilayered film formation. This sustainable iodide-mediated oxidative dehydrazination enables coupling reaction of electrogenerated iodine with aryl radicals from electron-deficient arylhydrazines employing electricity as the driving force and an inexpensive halogen source. A mechanistic proposal explaining the formation of aryl iodides is presented and discussed.
