Boronic Acid Mediated Carbocyanation of Olefins and Vinylation of Alkyl Iodides

Résumé fourni par la source

Phenylboronic acid was shown to mediate the multicomponent free‐radical carbocyanation of olefins and the addition of alkyl iodides to vinylsulfones. The reaction of the boronic acid with di‐tert‐butyl hyponitrite generates an aryl radical, which can selectively abstract an iodine atom from an alkyl iodide to form the key carbon‐centered radical precursor. Arylboronic acids are thus considered efficient tin surrogates in this free‐radical process.
