title: Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of bis(pinacolato)diboron with 1-alkenyl halides or triflates: convenient synthesis of unsymmetrical 1,3-dienes via the borylation-coupling sequence.
abstract: The synthesis of 1-alkenylboronic acid pinacol esters via a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of bis(pinacolato)diboron (pin(2)B(2), pin = Me(4)C(2)O(2)) with 1-alkenyl halides or triflates was carried out in toluene at 50 degrees C in the presence of KOPh (1.5 equiv) and PdCl(2)(PPh(3))(2)-2Ph(3)P (3 mol %). The borylation of acyclic and cyclic 1-alkenyl bromides and triflates was achieved in high yields with complete retention of configuration of the double bonds. The method was applied to the one-pot synthesis of unsymmetrical 1,3-dienes via the borylation-coupling sequence.
