Abstract
An efficient α-deprotonation and functionalization of benzylboronates with a wide range of electrophiles offers high atomic efficiency and an alternative C-C bond disconnection for the synthesis of benzylboronates. Notably, the boryl group enables high diastereoselectivities when unsymmetrical secondary α-bromoesters are used.
