Abstract

Readily available allylic acetates are converted to allylic boronates catalyzed by Ni/PCy3 or Ni/PPh3 complexes with high levels of stereoselectivity and in good yields, whereas the borylation of allylic halides can be accomplished with commercially available Pd catalysts [e.g., Pd2(dba)3, PdCl2, Pd/C].
