Protecting-group-free ortho-C–H borylation of anilines enabled by mesoionic carbene-Ir complex
We describe an iridium-catalyzed ortho-selective C–H borylation of unprotected anilines. The employing strong σ-donating cyclometalated mesoionic carbene as C^C bidentate ligand is crucial for the high ortho-selectivity. Computational studies support outer-sphere X–H···Oboryl hydrogen bond interacti...
