Abstract
In a transition-metal-free borylation of aryl and vinyl halides using 1,1-bis[(pinacolato)boryl]alkanes as boron source, one of the boron groups is selectively transferred in the presence of sodium tert-butoxide as the only activator. A broad range of organohalides are borylated with excellent chemoselectivity and functional group compatibility.
