Abstract

The reaction of propargyl tosylates (1) with (dialkoxyboryl)methyl-copper(I) reagents, prepared in situ from Knochel's (dialkoxyboryl)-methylzinc iodide (2) and CuCN · 2LiCl, produced 2,3-alkadienyl-boronates (3) in moderate yields. The reaction proceeded regioselectively to provide an SN2' substitution product without contamination by other products such as 3-alkynylboronate.
