Carbometalations of simple alkenes with allyldibromoborane

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

(Formula presented) The allylboration of alkenes with allyldibromoborane is described. Utilizing an improved methodology for the synthesis of allyldibromoborane, 1,3-dienes, styrene, and even isolated alkenes could be carbometalated in high yield regio-and stereospecifically at 0°C. This high reactivity of allyldibromoborane significantly expands the scope of carbometalations of alkenes.
