Metal-catalyzed highly Markovnikov-type selective hydrofunctionalization of terminal alkynes
provides a straightforward and atom-economical route to access 1, 1-disubstituted alkenes …

Although known for over 90 years, only in the past two decades has the chemistry of diboron
(4) compounds been extensively explored. Many interesting structural features and reaction …

Hydrometallation of alkenes and alkynes provides a straightforward route to access alkyl‐or
alkenyl‐metal reagents, which have a wide range of applications in organic transformations …

The emergence of N-heterocyclic carbenes as ligands across the Periodic Table had an
impact on various aspects of the coordination, organometallic, and catalytic chemistry of the …

Hydroboration of alkynes is of special interest to researchers since it is the most
straightforward process for the synthesis of highly important vinylborane synthetic …

Alkenylboranes have been vital reagents in modern synthetic organic chemistry, whose
carbon–boron bond is transformable into a carbon–carbon bond stereoretentively to give …

Organoboron compounds have become one of the most versatile building blocks in organic
synthesis owing to their accessible and efficient conversion into many different functional …

Compared with the well-developed centrally chiral boron chemistry, C–B axially chiral
