Devising boron reagents for orthogonal functionalization through Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling.
Seeing the sites: The Suzuki-Miyaura reaction of substrates containing multiple coupling sites has been performed in a directed manner through the reactivity modulation of the boron moiety (see scheme). Several other strategies are also discussed.
