Abstract
A mild Pd-catalyzed process for the borylation of primary alkyl bromides using bis(pinacolato)diboron as a boron source tolerates a wide range of functional groups on the alkyl bromide substrate and offers complete selectivity in the presence of a secondary bromide. This approach has been extended to the use of alkyl iodides and alkyl tosylates, as well as borylation reactions employing bis(neopentyl glycolato)diboron as the boron source.
