Abstract
A base-mediated trans-hydroboration of a wide range of propiolamides provides access to previously elusive primary and secondary (E)-β-borylacrylamides. The use of n-butyllithium and pinacolborane provides the corresponding vinylboronates in very good yields with complete regioselectivity and stereoselectivity.
