Transition metal–catalyzed C─ H bond activation and borylation is a powerful synthetic
method that offers versatile synthetic transformation from organoboron compounds to …

Iridium-catalyzed C–H activation and borylation has become as a powerful synthetic tool in
the past few decades because of the widespread applicability and versatility of organoboron …

Nitrogen containing compounds, such as anilines, are some of the most widespread and
useful chemical species, although their high and unselective reactivity has prevented their …

Doubly electrophilic pyrazabole derivatives (pyrazabole=[H2B (μ-C3N2H3)] 2) combined
with one equiv. of base effect the ortho-borylation of N-alkyl anilines. Initial studies found that …

An ideal approach for the construction of aryl boron compounds is to selectively replace a C–
H bond in arenes with a C–B bond, and controlling regioselectivity is one of the most …

The selective borylation of specific C− H bonds in organic synthesis remains a formidable
challenge. In this study, we present a novel spirobipyridine ligand that features a binaphthyl …

Control of site selectivity for organic synthesis in general, and for transition-metal-catalyzed
C–H functionalization in particular, is an important and challenging task. Steric interactions …

Site‐selective C− H bond functionalization of arenes at the para position remains extremely
challenging primarily due to its relative inaccessibility from the catalytic site. As a …

Conjugated dienes (1, 3-dienes) are versatile and valuable chemical feedstocks that can be
used as two-carbon or four-carbon synthons with vast applications across the chemical …

Iridium-catalyzed C–H borylation of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons assisted by a
directing group was theoretically investigated. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations …
