The chemoselective catalytic hydroboration of aldehydes and ketones has found
widespread applications in organic chemistry due to the synthetic utility of borate ester …

Metal–ligand cooperation, in which metal and ligand participate in bond cleavage and
formation, is gathering great attention in recent years. In contrast to the classical bond …

Rapid, clean hydroboration of ketones and aldehydes with HBpin is achieved using the
homoleptic rare-earth catalyst La [N (SiMe3) 2] 3 (LaNTMS). The reaction employs low …

A number of recently discovered nucleophilic boron compounds, such as boryl anions and
