Abstract:
The present research work is aimed to get experience in catalytic organoboron chemistry, through the main habits: literature search, design of experiments, development of catalytic reactions and purification of products, characterization of the new organoboron compounds and analysis of the results. We have observed that both 1,2-diborylalkenes and 1,1-diborylakenes have been functionalized selectively through copper catalyzed C-B bond activation and reaction with allylbromide. This work opens the perspective towards new electrophilic trapping in the next steps.
