Summary: | Organoboranes represent a privileged class of intermediates and are integral to the syntheses of numerous medicinally relevant molecules. The synthesis of organoboranes is usually through 2 electron polar methods which often involve expensive and toxic reagents used in stoichiometric quantities. We proposed that 1 electron radical chemistry can be used to generate new organoboranes under catalytic systems to allow for more controllable and efficient processes. Herein we report our efforts towards developing new catalytic methodologies for the synthesis of organoboranes. |
