title: Reaction of unstabilized iodonium ylides with organoboranes.
abstract: [reaction: see text] Exposure of monocarbonyl iodonium ylides, generated by the ester exchange of (Z)-(2-acetoxyvinyl)-lambda(3)-iodanes with EtOLi, to organoboranes results in a 1,2-shift of a carbon ligand from boron to the ylide carbons, which probably generates hitherto uncharacterized alpha-boryl ketones.
