Since its introduction in 2010 by Suginome et al., pinB-Bdan [pin = OCMe 2 CMe 2 O, dan = (NH) 2 (C 10 H 6 )] has become a valuable reagent in various regioselective (bis-)borylation reactions, and related unsymmetrical diborane(4) derivatives have been used as versatile precursors for diaminoboryl complexes. However, the unsymmetrical diborane(4) derivatives employed show little variation of the diol and diamine moieties. The present study expands this class of compounds and reports the synthesis of unsymmetrical diborane(4) derivatives
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
