Abstract

An efficient Cu-catalazed borylation of propargylic alcohols provides vinyl-, allyl-, and (E)-2-boryl allylboronates in very good yield with a broad substrate scope under mild conditions. Isolation of an allenyl boronate as the reaction intermediate suggests that an insertion-elimination-type reaction, followed by borylcupration, is involved.
