Abstract

In the absence of transition metal catalysts, the unsymmetrical diborane(4), pinB-BMes2, reacted with alkynes to afford diborylalkenes. The isomer ratio of the products could be controlled via temperature, solvent, and additive(s). A reaction mechanism was proposed on the basis of two isolated intermediates, and this reaction could furthermore be applied to synthesize a luminescent molecule.
