Synthesis of Borylated Compounds Through Decarboxylative and Decarbonylative Reactions

Organoboronates and organoboronic acids are important and versatile building blocks in organic synthesis, in materials science, and in medicinal chemistry as carboxylic acid bioisosteres. The most employed reactions to generate organoboronates are transmetallation and hydroboration of olefins. However, as carboxylic ac...
