Abstract
A copper-catalyzed β-boration of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds with tetrahydroxydiborane allows direct, efficient access to boronic acids and their derivatives. Various α,β-unsaturated amides, ketones and esters are converted to the corresponding β-trifluoroborato compounds in good to excellent yields.
