title: Nickel-catalyzed beta-boration of alpha,beta-unsaturated esters and amides with bis(pinacolato)diboron.
abstract: A nickel catalyst system for beta-boration of alpha,beta-unsaturated esters and amides with bis(pinacolato)diboron has been developed. The catalyst system enables the boration of di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted substrates in good yields.
