Copper(II)-Catalyzed -Borylation of Acetylenic Esters in Water

A method for the -borylation of alkynoates has been developed. In the presence of bis(pinacolato)diboron and catalytic amounts of both copper(II) and 4-picoline, substituted alkynoates undergo borylation in a regio-, stereo-, and chemoselective fashion. The reaction is performed under mild condition...

Summary:A method for the -borylation of alkynoates has been developed. In the presence of bis(pinacolato)diboron and catalytic amounts of both copper(II) and 4-picoline, substituted alkynoates undergo borylation in a regio-, stereo-, and chemoselective fashion. The reaction is performed under mild conditions using water as solvent and open to the atmosphere to exclusively afford (Z)--boryl-,-unsaturated esters.
