Direct deoxygenative borylation of carboxylic acids

Converting a carboxylic acid into a boronic acid, which makes a useful chemical handle from a feedstock chemical, currently relies on decarboxylation and requires metal catalysts and prior functionalization. Here the authors show a simplified procedure via deoxygenation, using diboron and free carbo...
