Abstract

Site-specific functionalization of the secondary C-B bond of 1,2-bis-boronic esters has been proven to be an important method for the generation of 1,2-bis-functionalized compounds in a highly stereoselective manner. We have explored previously unknown secondary selective alkenylation, allylation, alkynylation and addition to aryl vinyl trifluoromethane, which proceeds via a novel reaction mechanism: alkoxide-mediated photoredox activation to generate secondary radicals over the primary one.
