Boronic acid and boronic ester properties

• Boronic acids are trivalent boron-containing organic compounds• Mild organic Lewis acids• Low toxicity and degrades into environmentally friendly boric acid• Products of second oxidation of boranes

• Formation of boronic esters – loses hydrogen bond donor capabilities• Boronic esters are less polar, easier to handle• Boronic esters are non atom economical

Boronic acids and boronic esters

Limitations

• Boronic acids are not monomeric species, but rather exist as dimeric and cyclic trimeric anhydrides.

• Due to easy protodeboronation, excess (20-50%) of boronic acid is needed.

•Sensitivity to reagents commonly used in organic synthesis

8Boronic acids. Ed. Hall, D.G, Wiley-VCH. Weinheim, 2005.

• First report of convenient synthesis of organotrifluoroborates using boronic acid and derivatives using KHF2

• First to utilize organotrifluoroborates in coupling reactions with arenediazonium tetrafluoroborates.

Advantages

• Monomeric, crystalline compounds that are easily handled and indefinitely stable to moisture and air.

• BF3K moiety is compatible with sensitive functional groups

• Tolerant to reaction conditions.

Iterative Cross-Coupling

Iterative Cross-Coupling criteria

• Building blocks are readily available and inexpensive• Coupling and Protection/deprotection are high yielding, functional group tolerant and do not produce toxic by-products• Handling, separation, and purification are facile

• Solubility issues are present

• Expensive protecting group• Loss of atom economy
