Abstract
The Cu(OTf)2/NBS-mediated tandem reaction of 1-cinnamyl alcohol-o-carboranes for the synthesis of C-alkenyl-o-carboranes has been developed. Mechanism studies demonstrated that the Cu(OTf)2-promoted ring opening of oxetane with electron-rich arenes as soft nucleophiles was involved and was the key step for the transformation. This work provided an alternative strategy for the synthesis of C-alkenyl-o-carboranes, which has an important reference for the synthesis of o-carborane derivatives with diversity.
