Highly Reactive Rhodium(I)-Boryl Complex as a Useful Tool for C----H Bond Activation and Catalytic C----F Bond Borylation

CF bond borylation: A 16‐electron rhodium(I)–boryl complex was synthesized by borylation of a rhodium(I)–fluorine complex. The former reacts with benzene or 2,3,5,6‐tetrafluoropyridine by CH activation. A catalytic CF borylation reaction of pentafluoropyridine was also developed, which uses [Rh(B...

Summary:CF bond borylation: A 16‐electron rhodium(I)–boryl complex was synthesized by borylation of a rhodium(I)–fluorine complex. The former reacts with benzene or 2,3,5,6‐tetrafluoropyridine by CH activation. A catalytic CF borylation reaction of pentafluoropyridine was also developed, which uses [Rh(Bpin)(PEt3)3] as a catalyst and Me3SiSiMe3 as a solvent. pin=pinacol.
